Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MX3SWT-A1-0000-000D53 is based on the following criteria:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Color and CCT: White, Cool 6000K
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Package / Case: 2-SMD, Gull Wing Exposed Pad
• Size / Dimension: 5.00 mm × 5.00 mm
• Height - Seated (Max): 1.48 mm
• Viewing Angle: 120°
• Thermal Resistance: 11°C/W
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 2A (4 Weeks)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Forward Voltage (Vf): May differ based on series design
• Test Current: May differ based on series optimization
• Maximum Current: May differ based on series rating
• Flux Output: Must maintain comparable lumen output within application tolerance
• Lumens/Watt Efficiency: May vary with series design
• CRI: Must maintain 75 or higher

The MX3AWT-A1-0000-000E50 qualifies as a substitute because it maintains all mandatory matching parameters while operating at different electrical specifications optimized for the XLamp® MX-3 series.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX3AWT-A1-0000-000E50 is the designated substitute for the obsolete MX3SWT-A1-0000-000D53. Selection is based on the following engineering factors:

Product Status: The MX3SWT-A1-0000-000D53 is classified as obsolete, while the MX3AWT-A1-0000-000E50 maintains active product status with current manufacturing support.

Compliance & Certifications: The MX3AWT-A1-0000-000E50 carries RoHS Compliant certification, whereas the main part does not specify RoHS status. Both components maintain REACH Unaffected status.

Mechanical Compatibility: Both components share identical package geometry (2-SMD, Gull Wing Exposed Pad), footprint dimensions (5.00 mm × 5.00 mm), and height specifications (1.48 mm maximum seated height), ensuring direct PCB layout compatibility.

Optical & Thermal Properties: Both components deliver equivalent color temperature (6000K), viewing angle (120°), CRI (75 typical), and thermal resistance (11°C/W). The substitute provides slightly higher lumen output (118 lm vs. 111 lm) at comparable efficiency (91 lm/W vs. 90 lm/W).

Electrical Differences: The MX3AWT-A1-0000-000E50 operates at significantly lower forward voltage (3.7V vs. 10.7V) and higher test current (350 mA vs. 115 mA). Circuit design modifications are required to accommodate these electrical parameter changes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX3AWT-A1-0000-000E50 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX3SWT-A1-0000-000D53?

A: The MX3AWT-A1-0000-000E50 is mechanically compatible (identical package, footprint, and height) but requires circuit redesign due to different forward voltage (3.7V vs. 10.7V) and test current (350 mA vs. 115 mA) specifications. PCB layout remains unchanged; power supply and current-limiting circuitry must be modified.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is determined by matching color/CCT (6000K cool white), mounting type (surface mount), package configuration (2-SMD, Gull Wing Exposed Pad), physical dimensions (5.00 mm × 5.00 mm), height (1.48 mm maximum), viewing angle (120°), thermal resistance (11°C/W), and moisture sensitivity level (2A, 4 weeks).

Q: Why does the MX3AWT-A1-0000-000E50 have different electrical specifications?

A: The MX3AWT-A1-0000-000E50 belongs to the XLamp® MX-3 series, while the main part is from the XLamp® MX-3S series. Different series designs optimize for different electrical operating points while maintaining identical optical and mechanical characteristics.

Q: Is the MX3AWT-A1-0000-000E50 available in the same packaging format?

A: The substitute is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, whereas the main part packaging format is not specified. Both components use identical component-level packaging (2-SMD, Gull Wing Exposed Pad).

Q: What compliance certifications apply to the substitute part?

A: The MX3AWT-A1-0000-000E50 is RoHS Compliant and maintains REACH Unaffected status. Both components share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8541.41.0000) classifications.
