Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BF7 is based on the following critical parameters that must align for functional compatibility:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Color and CCT: White, Warm 3250K
• Viewing Angle: 120°
• Package Type: 2-SMD, Gull Wing configuration
• Physical Dimensions: 5.00mm x 5.00mm footprint
• Thermal Resistance: 5°C/W
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 2A (4 Weeks)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Voltage - Forward (Vf): May differ based on circuit design requirements
• Current - Test: May differ based on application current handling
• Flux Output: Must maintain warm white 3250K specification
• CRI: Must maintain 80 or higher
• Lumens/Watt efficiency: May vary within product line

The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA7 qualifies as a substitute based on matching color temperature, viewing angle, package configuration, physical dimensions, and thermal characteristics. The primary difference is the forward voltage (3.3V vs. 20V) and test current (300mA vs. 60mA), which requires circuit-level evaluation for compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA7 is available as an active product with RoHS compliance, whereas the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BF7 is obsolete. Both components share identical color temperature (3250K), viewing angle (120°), package footprint (5.00mm x 5.00mm), and thermal characteristics (5°C/W).

The primary design consideration is the voltage differential: the substitute operates at 3.3V with 300mA test current versus the original 20V at 60mA. This represents a significant change in power delivery architecture and requires circuit redesign. The substitute delivers equivalent luminous flux (97lm) with improved efficiency (98 lm/W vs. 81 lm/W).

Selection of the MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA7 is appropriate for new designs or redesigns where the lower voltage architecture can be accommodated. The active product status and RoHS compliance provide advantages for long-term supply chain stability and regulatory alignment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA7 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BF7?

A: No. While both components share identical color temperature (3250K), viewing angle (120°), and physical footprint (5.00mm x 5.00mm), the forward voltage differs significantly (3.3V vs. 20V). Direct substitution requires circuit-level modifications to the power delivery and current limiting design.

Q: What are the key compatibility criteria for these warm white LED components?

A: Compatibility is determined by color temperature (3250K), viewing angle (120°), package configuration (2-SMD Gull Wing), physical dimensions (5.00mm x 5.00mm), thermal resistance (5°C/W), and moisture sensitivity level (2A, 4 Weeks). Voltage and current parameters must be evaluated within the context of the specific application circuit.

Q: Why is the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BF7 listed as obsolete?

A: The MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BF7 is classified as obsolete by the manufacturer. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA7 from the newer XLamp® MX-6 series represents the active product line continuation with improved efficiency and regulatory compliance.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these components?

A: The MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BF7 uses standard 2-SMD Gull Wing packaging. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA7 uses 2-SMD Gull Wing with an exposed pad configuration, which provides improved thermal management. The substitute is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging format.

Q: What is the impact of the efficiency difference (81 lm/W vs. 98 lm/W)?

A: The substitute component delivers 17% higher luminous efficacy at its test current. This results in lower power consumption for equivalent light output, reducing thermal load and improving overall system efficiency.
