Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution compatibility for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000CB2 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Identical package type: 2-SMD, Gull Wing configuration
• Matching footprint dimensions: 5.00mm x 5.00mm
• Equivalent height: 1.48mm maximum seated height
• Surface mount mounting type

Optical Compatibility:

• Color: White
• Viewing angle: 120°

Thermal Compatibility:

• Thermal resistance: 5°C/W

Environmental Compliance:

• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 2A (4 Weeks)

The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000CB2 meets all mechanical, optical, and environmental compatibility criteria. However, this substitute operates at significantly different electrical parameters (3.3V forward voltage, 300mA test current) compared to the main part (20V, 60mA), requiring circuit redesign for direct substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000CB2 is the documented substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-A1-0000-000CB2. Both components share identical mechanical footprints, optical characteristics, and thermal properties, enabling direct PCB placement compatibility.

The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000CB2 carries active product status from CreeLED, Inc., ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain support. This component is RoHS compliant, providing enhanced environmental compliance compared to the main part specification.

Electrical parameter differences require circuit-level modifications. The substitute operates at 3.3V forward voltage with 300mA test current, compared to the main part's 20V and 60mA specifications. Power supply design, current limiting resistors, and thermal management must be re-evaluated for the substitute component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-A1-0000-000CB2 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000CB2?

A: The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000CB2 is mechanically and optically compatible, allowing direct PCB placement. However, electrical circuit redesign is required due to different forward voltage (3.3V vs. 20V) and test current (300mA vs. 60mA) specifications.

Q: What are the key mechanical compatibility factors?

A: Both components share identical 5.00mm x 5.00mm footprints, 1.48mm maximum seated height, and 2-SMD Gull Wing package configuration. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000CB2 includes an exposed pad variant, which may provide improved thermal performance in high-power applications.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these components?

A: The MX6SWT-A1-0000-000CB2 uses standard 2-SMD Gull Wing packaging. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000CB2 uses 2-SMD Gull Wing with exposed pad and is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, compared to the main part's unspecified packaging format.

Q: What is the luminous flux equivalence between these parts?

A: Both components deliver 104lm at 25°C under their respective test conditions. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000CB2 achieves higher luminous efficiency at 105 lm/W compared to 87 lm/W for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000CB2.

Q: Are there compliance differences?

A: The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000CB2 is RoHS compliant, while the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000CB2 does not specify RoHS status. Both components are REACH unaffected and carry identical moisture sensitivity levels (2A, 4 Weeks).
