Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000FE3 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility:

• Color and CCT (5000K cool white)
• Forward voltage (20V nominal operation)
• Current rating and thermal characteristics
• Luminous flux and efficiency (lm/W)
• CRI (75 Typ)

Mechanical Compatibility:

• 2-SMD gull wing surface mount package
• 5.00mm x 5.00mm footprint
• 1.48mm maximum seated height
• 120° viewing angle

Identified Substitutes:

1. MX6SWT-A1-R250-000FE3 (Parametric Equivalent): Identical electrical and mechanical specifications to the main part. Differs only in packaging format (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® versus standard packaging). Same XLamp® MX-6S series, same 20V/60mA operation, same 126lm output.

2. MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DE3 (Similar Substitute): Different XLamp® MX-6 series with different electrical characteristics. Operates at 3.3V forward voltage with 300mA test current. Delivers 111lm at test current with 112 lm/W efficiency. Maintains identical mechanical footprint, package type, and 5000K color temperature. Product status is active (not obsolete).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

MX6SWT-A1-R250-000FE3 (Parametric Equivalent): Select this part for direct replacement when packaging format flexibility is acceptable. Electrical and optical performance are identical to the main part. Both parts share obsolete product status. Packaging differs only in format (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® versus standard), with no impact on electrical or mechanical compatibility.

MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DE3 (Similar Substitute): This part is suitable only when circuit design accommodates the different electrical characteristics: 3.3V forward voltage and 300mA test current versus 20V and 60mA. The lower forward voltage and higher current requirement necessitate different power supply and current-limiting circuit design. Mechanical footprint and color temperature are compatible. Active product status provides ongoing availability and support. RoHS compliance is confirmed for this part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DE3 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for MX6SWT-A1-0000-000FE3?

A: No. While both parts share identical mechanical footprint, package type, and color temperature (5000K), the electrical characteristics differ significantly. The MX6AWT operates at 3.3V with 300mA test current, whereas the MX6SWT operates at 20V with 60mA test current. Circuit redesign is required to accommodate the different voltage and current requirements.

Q: What is the difference between MX6SWT-A1-0000-000FE3 and MX6SWT-A1-R250-000FE3?

A: These parts are parametrically equivalent with identical electrical and optical specifications. The only difference is packaging format: MX6SWT-A1-R250-000FE3 is supplied in Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® format, while MX6SWT-A1-0000-000FE3 uses standard packaging. Both are obsolete products.

Q: Why is the MX6SWT-A1-0000-000FE3 marked as obsolete?

A: Product status is obsolete as specified by the manufacturer. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DE3 is an active product offering similar functionality with different electrical characteristics and confirmed RoHS compliance.

Q: Are the mechanical packages truly compatible between all three parts?

A: Yes. All three parts use 2-SMD gull wing surface mount packages with 5.00mm x 5.00mm footprint and 1.48mm maximum seated height. The MX6AWT-A1-0000-000DE3 includes an exposed pad, but this does not affect mechanical compatibility or PCB footprint requirements.

Q: What are the thermal characteristics of these parts?

A: All three parts have identical thermal resistance of 5°C/W and moisture sensitivity level of 2A (4 Weeks). Thermal management considerations are equivalent across all substitutes.
