Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BA9 qualifies as a substitute based on the following critical parameters:

Matching Parameters:

• Color: White, Warm (identical)
• CCT: 2850K (identical)
• Flux @ 25°C: 97lm (94lm ~ 100lm) (identical range)
• CRI: 80 (Typ) (identical)
• Viewing Angle: 120° (identical)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (identical)
• Package / Case: 2-SMD, Gull Wing (compatible form factor)
• Size / Dimension: 5.00mm x 5.00mm (identical)
• Height - Seated (Max): 1.48mm (identical)
• Thermal Resistance: 5°C/W (identical)
• MSL: 2A (4 Weeks) (identical)

Differing Parameters:

• Voltage - Forward (Vf): 3.3V (substitute) vs. 20V (main part)
• Current - Test: 300mA (substitute) vs. 60mA (main part)
• Current - Max: 1A (substitute) vs. 175mA (main part)
• Lumens/Watt: 98 lm/W (substitute) vs. 81 lm/W (main part)
• Product Status: Active (substitute) vs. Obsolete (main part)
• Packaging: Tape & Reel (substitute) vs. Unspecified (main part)

The substitute part maintains identical optical and thermal characteristics while operating at significantly lower voltage and higher current ratings. Circuit design modifications are required to accommodate the different electrical operating point.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BA9 is suitable as a substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BA9 based on the following factors:

Product Status: The substitute part carries Active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturing support from CreeLED, Inc., whereas the main part is classified as Obsolete.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain identical REACH and ECCN classifications (REACH Unaffected, EAR99), ensuring equivalent regulatory standing.

Optical Performance: Both parts deliver identical luminous flux (97lm at 25°C) and color rendering index (80 Typ) at their respective test currents, maintaining equivalent color temperature (2850K) and viewing angle (120°).

Thermal and Mechanical Compatibility: Identical thermal resistance (5°C/W), package dimensions (5.00mm x 5.00mm), and moisture sensitivity level (2A, 4 Weeks) ensure mechanical and thermal interchangeability in PCB layouts.

Electrical Redesign Requirement: The substitute part operates at 3.3V forward voltage and 300mA test current, compared to 20V and 60mA for the main part. Circuit power supply and current-limiting resistor values must be recalculated to accommodate this electrical difference.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BA9 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BA9?

A: No. While both parts are mechanically and thermally compatible, the substitute operates at significantly different electrical parameters (3.3V/300mA vs. 20V/60mA). Circuit redesign is required to modify the power supply voltage and current-limiting resistor values.

Q: Are the optical characteristics identical between these two parts?

A: Yes. Both parts deliver 97lm at 25°C with 2850K color temperature and 80 CRI. The viewing angle (120°) is also identical.

Q: What is the difference between the package designations "2-SMD, Gull Wing" and "2-SMD, Gull Wing Exposed Pad"?

A: The substitute part includes an exposed pad for enhanced thermal management. Both packages maintain identical external dimensions (5.00mm x 5.00mm) and height (1.48mm), ensuring PCB layout compatibility.

Q: Why is the main part classified as Obsolete?

A: The MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BA9 belongs to the XLamp® MX-6S series, which has been superseded by the active XLamp® MX-6 series. The substitute part represents the current generation equivalent.

Q: Is the substitute part RoHS compliant?

A: The substitute part (MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BA9) is specified as RoHS Compliant. The main part does not include RoHS status in the provided specifications.

Q: What is the significance of the "Tape & Reel (TR)" packaging for the substitute part?

A: Tape & Reel packaging is standard for high-volume surface mount production. This packaging format is compatible with automated pick-and-place assembly equipment and does not affect component electrical or thermal performance.
