Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000FA1 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Parameters:

• Color and CCT (5000K cool white)
• Voltage - Forward (Vf) (Typ): 20V
• Current - Test: 60mA
• Viewing Angle: 120°
• CRI: 75 (Typ)

Mechanical Compatibility Parameters:

• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Package / Case: 2-SMD, Gull Wing
• Size / Dimension: 5.00mm x 5.00mm
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.058" (1.48mm)
• Thermal Resistance: 5°C/W

Environmental & Compliance Parameters:

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

Two substitute parts are identified:

1. MX6SWT-A1-R250-000FE3 — Parametric equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications; differs only in packaging format (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® vs. standard packaging).

2. MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DA1 — Similar part from the XLamp® MX-6 series with matching color, CCT, viewing angle, package footprint, and thermal characteristics; operates at different voltage and current parameters (3.3V, 300mA) and is currently active in production.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

MX6SWT-A1-R250-000FE3 (Parametric Equivalent): This part is the direct parametric equivalent to the main part number. All electrical characteristics, optical performance, and mechanical dimensions are identical. The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® versus standard packaging). Selection of this part requires no circuit redesign and maintains full compatibility with existing PCB layouts and driver circuits. Both parts share obsolete product status.

MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DA1 (Similar Alternative): This part offers an active production alternative with identical color temperature, viewing angle, package footprint, and thermal characteristics. However, it operates at significantly different electrical parameters: 3.3V forward voltage and 300mA test current versus 20V and 60mA. Circuit redesign is required to accommodate the different voltage and current specifications. The part is RoHS Compliant and currently active in production, providing long-term availability assurance. Selection of this part is appropriate only when circuit modification is feasible and the lower voltage operation is advantageous for the application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MX6SWT-A1-R250-000FE3 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for MX6SWT-A1-0000-000FA1?

A: Yes. MX6SWT-A1-R250-000FE3 is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications (20V, 60mA), optical output (126lm), and mechanical dimensions (5.00mm x 5.00mm, 0.058" height). The only difference is packaging format. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What are the key differences between MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DA1 and the main part?

A: MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DA1 operates at 3.3V forward voltage and 300mA test current, compared to 20V and 60mA for the main part. Optical output is slightly lower (111lm vs. 126lm). The part is from the XLamp® MX-6 series rather than MX-6S. Circuit redesign is required for substitution. The primary advantage is active production status and RoHS compliance.

Q: Are the package dimensions identical across all three parts?

A: Yes. All three parts share the same footprint (5.00mm x 5.00mm) and maximum seated height (0.058" / 1.48mm). MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DA1 features an exposed pad in its 2-SMD Gull Wing package, while the MX6SWT variants do not. PCB layout compatibility is maintained for footprint placement.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: All three parts are classified as MSL 2A (4 Weeks), indicating they must be stored in controlled humidity conditions and used within four weeks of bag opening under standard moisture conditions.

Q: Are these parts RoHS compliant?

A: MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DA1 is explicitly RoHS Compliant. RoHS status is not specified for MX6SWT-A1-0000-000FA1 and MX6SWT-A1-R250-000FE3. All three parts are REACH Unaffected.

Q: Which substitute should I select for a new design?

A: For new designs, MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DA1 is the recommended choice due to its active production status, RoHS compliance, and long-term availability. Circuit design must accommodate 3.3V operation and 300mA current requirements. For existing designs requiring minimal modification, MX6SWT-A1-R250-000FE3 provides identical electrical performance with only packaging format differences.
