Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BZ7 is identified as a substitute for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BZ7 based on the following criteria:

Matching Parameters:

• Color and CCT: Both are warm white at 3000K
• Flux output: Both deliver 97lm at 25°C (94lm ~ 100lm range)
• CRI: Both maintain 80 (Typ)
• Viewing angle: Both provide 120° beam angle
• Package footprint: Both use 2-SMD, Gull Wing configuration with 5.00mm x 5.00mm dimensions
• Height: Both have 1.48mm seated height (Max)
• Thermal resistance: Both rated at 5°C/W
• Moisture sensitivity: Both classified as 2A (4 Weeks)
• Compliance: Both REACH Unaffected, ECCN EAR99, HTSUS 8541.41.0000

Differing Parameters:

• Series: MX-6S (obsolete) vs. MX-6 (active)
• Forward voltage: 20V vs. 3.3V
• Test current: 60mA vs. 300mA
• Maximum current: 175mA vs. 1A
• Lumens/Watt efficiency: 81 lm/W vs. 98 lm/W
• Product status: Obsolete vs. Active
• Packaging format: Bulk vs. Tape & Reel (TR)
• RoHS status: Not specified vs. RoHS Compliant

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BZ7 serves as an active production alternative to the obsolete MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BZ7. Both components share identical optical output (97lm at 3000K with 80 CRI), mechanical footprint (5.00mm x 5.00mm, 1.48mm height), and thermal characteristics (5°C/W).

The primary design consideration is the significant difference in forward voltage (20V vs. 3.3V) and operating current (60mA test vs. 300mA test). These electrical parameters require circuit redesign to accommodate the lower voltage and higher current requirements of the MX6AWT variant. The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BZ7 offers improved efficiency (98 lm/W vs. 81 lm/W) and higher maximum current rating (1A vs. 175mA), providing greater design flexibility for current-limited applications.

The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BZ7 is supplied in Tape & Reel format with RoHS compliance certification, supporting modern manufacturing and environmental compliance requirements. Selection of this substitute requires verification that the application circuit can accommodate the 3.3V forward voltage specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BZ7 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BZ7?

A: No. While both components deliver identical luminous flux (97lm) and color characteristics (3000K, 80 CRI), the forward voltage differs significantly (3.3V vs. 20V). Direct substitution requires circuit modification to accommodate the lower voltage and higher current requirements of the MX6AWT variant.

Q: What are the key matching parameters between these two parts?

A: Both components share warm white color (3000K), identical luminous output (97lm at 25°C), CRI of 80, 120° viewing angle, 2-SMD Gull Wing package footprint (5.00mm x 5.00mm), 1.48mm seated height, 5°C/W thermal resistance, and 2A MSL rating.

Q: Why does the MX6AWT have higher efficiency (98 lm/W vs. 81 lm/W)?

A: The efficiency difference reflects the different operating points. The MX6AWT achieves 98 lm/W at its 300mA test current, while the MX6SWT achieves 81 lm/W at its 60mA test current. These are measured at different current levels and represent the performance characteristics of each series design.

Q: What is the significance of the exposed pad on the MX6AWT package?

A: The exposed pad on the MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BZ7 (2-SMD, Gull Wing Exposed Pad) provides enhanced thermal dissipation compared to the standard Gull Wing package. This supports the higher maximum current rating (1A vs. 175mA) and contributes to improved thermal management in high-current applications.

Q: Is the MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BZ7 RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BZ7 is RoHS Compliant. RoHS status for the obsolete MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BZ7 is not specified in available documentation.

Q: What packaging format is available for the MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BZ7?

A: The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000BZ7 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, suitable for automated assembly processes. The original MX6SWT-A1-0000-000BZ7 was available in bulk packaging.
