Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-0008AA is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Criteria:

• Color and CCT: White, Warm 2700K
• CRI: 80
• Viewing Angle: 120°
• Package Type: 2-SMD, Gull Wing configuration
• Physical Dimensions: 5.00mm x 5.00mm footprint
• Height - Seated (Max): 1.48mm
• Thermal Resistance: 5°C/W
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 2A (4 Weeks)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Voltage - Forward (Typ): May differ based on circuit design requirements
• Current - Test: May differ based on application operating point
• Current - Max: May differ based on thermal management capability
• Lumens/Watt: May vary with different forward voltage and current operating points
• Flux @ 25°C: Acceptable within specified tolerance range (74lm – 81lm)
• Product Status: Active status preferred for new designs; obsolete acceptable for legacy support

The identified substitute MX6AWT-H1-0000-0008AA maintains all mandatory matching criteria while operating at different electrical parameters (3.3V forward voltage, 300mA test current) suitable for alternative circuit topologies.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Obsolete Part Replacement: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-0008AA is the identified substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-0008AA. Both components share identical color temperature (2700K), CRI (80), viewing angle (120°), physical footprint (5.00mm x 5.00mm), and thermal characteristics (5°C/W). The substitute operates at active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity.

Electrical Parameter Differences: The substitute operates at 3.3V forward voltage with 300mA test current, compared to the main part's 20V and 60mA. This represents a fundamentally different circuit topology requirement. Circuit redesign is necessary to accommodate the lower voltage and higher current operating point. The substitute delivers improved efficiency (78 lm/W versus 64 lm/W) at its specified operating conditions.

Compliance Considerations: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-0008AA carries RoHS Compliant certification, whereas RoHS status is not specified for the main part. Both components maintain REACH Unaffected status and identical MSL ratings (2A, 4 Weeks).

Package Consideration: The substitute features an exposed pad variant of the 2-SMD gull wing package, providing enhanced thermal management capability compared to the standard gull wing configuration of the main part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-0008AA be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-0008AA?

A: No. While both components share identical physical dimensions, color temperature, CRI, and viewing angle, they operate at different forward voltages (3.3V versus 20V) and test currents (300mA versus 60mA). Circuit redesign is required to accommodate the electrical parameter differences.

Q: What are the key compatibility factors between these two parts?

A: Compatible factors include color (warm white 2700K), CRI (80), viewing angle (120°), footprint (5.00mm x 5.00mm), height (1.48mm maximum), thermal resistance (5°C/W), and moisture sensitivity level (2A, 4 Weeks). These parameters ensure optical and mechanical compatibility in the same PCB layout.

Q: Why does the substitute have higher lumens per watt efficiency?

A: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-0008AA achieves 78 lm/W at its 3.3V, 300mA operating point, while the main part achieves 64 lm/W at 20V, 60mA. Efficiency values are specific to each component's rated operating conditions and cannot be directly compared without accounting for the different electrical parameters.

Q: What is the significance of the exposed pad in the substitute package?

A: The exposed pad variant (2-SMD, Gull Wing Exposed Pad) provides direct thermal contact to the PCB, improving heat dissipation compared to the standard gull wing package. This enhances thermal management capability for applications requiring sustained operation at elevated currents.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The substitute (MX6AWT-H1-0000-0008AA) carries RoHS Compliant certification. RoHS status is not specified for the main part (MX6SWT-H1-0000-0008AA). Both maintain REACH Unaffected status and identical moisture sensitivity levels.

Q: What is the product status significance?

A: The main part is classified as obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited availability. The substitute is active status, ensuring ongoing production, supply chain availability, and manufacturer support for new designs and legacy applications.
