Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000EB3 is evaluated based on the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility: Both parts must share identical mounting type (Surface Mount), package style (2-SMD, Gull Wing), footprint dimensions (5.00mm × 5.00mm), and seated height (1.48mm maximum). These parameters ensure direct PCB compatibility without layout redesign.

Electrical Compatibility: Color (White) and viewing angle (120°) must match. Thermal resistance (5°C/W) and moisture sensitivity level (2A, 4 Weeks) must be equivalent to maintain thermal management and handling requirements.

Functional Equivalence: While forward voltage, test current, and flux output differ between the main part and substitute, the substitute must operate within the same XLamp® product family and maintain comparable luminous efficacy to ensure functional performance in the intended application.

The identified substitute, MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DB1, meets all mechanical and environmental requirements while offering active product status and improved specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DB1 is the identified substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-A1-0000-000EB3. Selection is supported by the following factors:

Product Status: The substitute is Active, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity compared to the Obsolete status of the original part.

Compliance: The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DB1 is RoHS Compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements. Both parts share REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification.

Mechanical Compatibility: Identical footprint (5.00mm × 5.00mm), mounting type (Surface Mount), and seated height (1.48mm) enable direct PCB substitution without layout modification.

Environmental Requirements: Both parts maintain 2A MSL (4 Weeks) moisture sensitivity and 5°C/W thermal resistance, ensuring equivalent handling and thermal management protocols.

Electrical Considerations: The substitute operates at significantly lower forward voltage (3.3V vs. 20V) and higher test current (300mA vs. 60mA). Circuit design must accommodate these electrical differences through appropriate current-limiting and voltage regulation adjustments. The substitute delivers comparable luminous output (111 lm vs. 118 lm) with improved efficiency (112 lm/W vs. 98 lm/W).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DB1 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for MX6SWT-A1-0000-000EB3?

A: Mechanically yes—both parts share identical footprint, mounting type, and package dimensions. Electrically no—the substitute requires circuit redesign due to different forward voltage (3.3V vs. 20V) and test current (300mA vs. 60mA) specifications. Current-limiting resistors and voltage regulation must be recalculated.

Q: What are the key mechanical compatibility criteria?

A: Mounting type (Surface Mount), package style (2-SMD, Gull Wing), footprint dimensions (5.00mm × 5.00mm), and maximum seated height (1.48mm) must match. Both parts meet these requirements.

Q: Does the substitute meet current compliance standards?

A: Yes. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DB1 is RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements. The original part's compliance status is not fully specified.

Q: What is the difference between the package designations?

A: The original part uses standard 2-SMD, Gull Wing packaging. The substitute uses 2-SMD, Gull Wing with Exposed Pad, which provides improved thermal dissipation through the exposed pad connection to the PCB ground plane.

Q: How do the luminous outputs compare?

A: The original part delivers 118 lm at 60mA. The substitute delivers 111 lm at 300mA. Both provide comparable luminous output with the substitute offering higher efficiency (112 lm/W vs. 98 lm/W).

Q: Are there inventory considerations?

A: The original part (MX6SWT-A1-0000-000EB3) is Obsolete with 648 pcs in stock. The substitute (MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DB1) is Active with 869 pcs available, ensuring ongoing supply availability.
