Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The substitute part MX3AWT-A1-R250-000CE3 is classified as a parametric equivalent within the XLamp® MX-3 product family. Substitution eligibility is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

• Color and Color Temperature: Both parts are White, Cool 5000K
• Luminous Flux: Identical specification of 104 lm at 25°C, 350mA test current (100–107 lm range)
• Electrical Characteristics: Matching forward voltage (3.7V typical), test current (350mA), and maximum current rating (500mA)
• Optical Performance: Identical viewing angle (120°), CRI (75 typical), and luminous efficacy (80 lm/W)
• Physical Package: Identical 2-SMD Gull Wing Exposed Pad configuration, 5.00mm × 5.00mm footprint, 1.48mm seated height
• Thermal Properties: Matching thermal resistance (11°C/W)
• Compliance and Certifications: Both parts are RoHS Compliant, REACH Unaffected, with identical MSL rating (2A, 4 Weeks)

The difference between these part numbers reflects packaging batch coding or regional distribution variants, not functional or performance differences.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the MX3AWT-A1-0000-000CDZ and MX3AWT-A1-R250-000CE3 are active production components from CreeLED, Inc., with full RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts should be based on procurement availability, supply chain logistics, or specific packaging batch requirements, as all electrical, optical, thermal, and mechanical specifications are identical. Both components meet MSL 2A handling requirements (4-week floor life) and are suitable for automated surface mount assembly processes. No functional or performance differentiation exists between these part numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MX3AWT-A1-R250-000CE3 be used as a direct replacement for MX3AWT-A1-0000-000CDZ in existing designs?

A: Yes. All electrical, optical, thermal, and mechanical parameters are identical. No circuit modifications, PCB layout changes, or thermal management adjustments are required. Both parts are pin-compatible and functionally equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The difference lies in packaging batch coding or regional distribution variants. The suffix codes (-0000-000CDZ versus -R250-000CE3) indicate different manufacturing batches or distribution channels, not functional differences.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with automated pick-and-place equipment?

A: No. Both parts use identical 2-SMD Gull Wing Exposed Pad packaging with 5.00mm × 5.00mm footprint and 1.48mm seated height. Feeder settings, nozzle configurations, and placement parameters remain unchanged.

Q: Do these parts have the same moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: Yes. Both parts carry MSL 2A rating with a 4-week floor life. Identical moisture control, storage, and handling procedures apply to both components.

Q: Can I mix these parts in the same production batch?

A: Yes. Since all specifications are identical, mixing these part numbers in the same assembly run presents no technical or compliance issues.

Q: What is the thermal performance difference between these parts?

A: There is no difference. Both parts have identical thermal resistance of 11°C/W and will perform identically in thermal management applications.
