Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000AB6 is identified as a substitute for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000AB6 based on the following allowable parameters:

Common Parameters (Substitution Basis):

• Color: White
• Viewing Angle: 120°
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Package / Case: 2-SMD, Gull Wing (with exposed pad variant)
• Size / Dimension: 0.197" L x 0.197" W (5.00mm x 5.00mm)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.058" (1.48mm)
• Thermal Resistance of Package: 5°C/W
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 2A (4 Weeks)

Differing Parameters (Design Considerations):

• Current - Test: 60mA (MX6SWT) vs. 300mA (MX6AWT)
• Current - Max: 175mA (MX6SWT) vs. 1A (MX6AWT)
• Lumens/Watt: 76 lm/W (MX6SWT) vs. 92 lm/W (MX6AWT)
• Product Status: Obsolete (MX6SWT) vs. Active (MX6AWT)
• Series: XLamp® MX-6S (MX6SWT) vs. XLamp® MX-6 (MX6AWT)

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000AB6 is an active product with RoHS compliance certification, whereas the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000AB6 is obsolete. Both components share identical physical dimensions, thermal characteristics, and moisture sensitivity ratings. The primary design consideration is the significant difference in forward voltage (20V vs. 3.3V) and operating current (60mA test vs. 300mA test), which necessitates circuit redesign for power supply and current limiting requirements. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000AB6 offers improved luminous efficacy at 92 lm/W compared to 76 lm/W, and maintains active product status with regulatory compliance documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-A1-0000-000AB6 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000AB6?

A: No. While both components share identical physical dimensions and package footprints, the forward voltage differs significantly (20V vs. 3.3V). Direct substitution without circuit modification will result in component failure or inadequate operation. Power supply and current limiting circuits must be redesigned for the lower voltage requirement.

Q: What are the key compatibility factors between these two parts?

A: Compatible factors include surface mount mounting type, 2-SMD gull wing package configuration, 5.00mm x 5.00mm footprint, 0.058" maximum seated height, 120° viewing angle, white color, and identical thermal resistance and moisture sensitivity ratings.

Q: Why is the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000AB6 listed as obsolete?

A: Product status is determined by the manufacturer. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000AB6 represents the active product line continuation within the XLamp® MX series family.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000AB6 is certified RoHS Compliant. Compliance status for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000AB6 is not specified in available documentation. Both parts are REACH Unaffected and classified under ECCN EAR99.

Q: How do the electrical performance characteristics compare?

A: Both deliver 91lm at 25°C test conditions. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000AB6 achieves superior luminous efficacy at 92 lm/W versus 76 lm/W for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000AB6, despite operating at significantly lower voltage and higher test current.
