Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DF6 is based on the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility:

• Color and correlated color temperature (CCT): Both parts must be White, Warm 3750K to maintain color consistency in the application
• Viewing angle: Both parts maintain 120° viewing angle for optical compatibility
• CRI (Color Rendering Index): Both parts specify 80 (Typ), ensuring equivalent color rendering performance

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Mounting type: Surface Mount required for PCB assembly compatibility
• Package type: 2-SMD Gull Wing configuration for footprint compatibility
• Physical dimensions: 5.00mm × 5.00mm footprint and 1.48mm maximum seated height ensure mechanical fit
• Thermal resistance: 5°C/W thermal package rating for thermal management equivalence

Regulatory & Environmental:

• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 2A (4 Weeks) for handling and storage compatibility
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected for regulatory compliance
• ECCN: EAR99 for export classification consistency

Note on Electrical Differences: The substitute part MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 operates at significantly different voltage (3.3V vs. 20V) and current (300mA vs. 60mA) specifications. This part is electrically distinct and requires circuit redesign for implementation. It is listed as a substitute based on shared optical, mechanical, and regulatory parameters, but direct pin-for-pin replacement is not possible without power supply and driver circuit modifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Obsolete Part Continuity): The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 shares identical optical characteristics (3750K color temperature, 80 CRI, 120° viewing angle), mechanical footprint (5.00mm × 5.00mm, 1.48mm height), and regulatory compliance (REACH Unaffected, EAR99) with the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DF6. However, the substitute operates at 3.3V/300mA versus the original 20V/60mA, requiring complete power supply and driver circuit redesign.

Product Status Consideration: The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 is classified as Active, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DF6.

Compliance Advantage: The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 is explicitly RoHS Compliant, whereas RoHS status is not specified for the original part. This provides regulatory advantage for new designs and markets with RoHS requirements.

Packaging Availability: The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 is available in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, supporting automated assembly processes and volume production.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 be used as a direct pin-for-pin replacement for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DF6?

A: No. While both parts share identical mechanical footprint (5.00mm × 5.00mm), viewing angle (120°), color temperature (3750K), and CRI (80), they operate at fundamentally different electrical specifications. The MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DF6 requires 20V at 60mA, while the MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 requires 3.3V at 300mA. Direct substitution requires redesign of the power supply and LED driver circuit.

Q: Are the optical characteristics identical between these parts?

A: The optical characteristics are equivalent. Both parts deliver warm white light at 3750K with 80 CRI and 120° viewing angle. Luminous flux differs slightly (111lm vs. 97lm) due to different test currents, but luminous efficacy is comparable (93 lm/W vs. 98 lm/W).

Q: What are the mechanical compatibility requirements?

A: Both parts are surface mount components with identical footprint dimensions (5.00mm × 5.00mm) and maximum seated height (1.48mm). The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 features an exposed pad variant of the 2-SMD Gull Wing package, which may provide improved thermal performance but requires compatible PCB design.

Q: Are there regulatory or compliance differences?

A: Both parts are REACH Unaffected and classified as EAR99 for export purposes. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 is explicitly RoHS Compliant, whereas RoHS status is not specified for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DF6. Both maintain MSL 2A (4 Weeks) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Why is the MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 listed as a substitute if electrical redesign is required?

A: The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000BA5 is listed as a substitute based on optical, mechanical, and regulatory parameter equivalence. For applications where the original 20V/60mA specification can be redesigned to 3.3V/300mA operation, this part provides an active, RoHS-compliant alternative to the obsolete MX6SWT-A1-0000-000DF6.
