Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MX6SWT-H1-0000-0009B4 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility: Package type (2-SMD, Gull Wing), physical dimensions (5.00mm x 5.00mm), and mounting height (1.48mm maximum) must match to ensure PCB assembly compatibility without design modification.

Optical Compatibility: Color (white) and viewing angle (120°) must remain consistent for application performance.

Thermal Compatibility: Thermal resistance (5°C/W) ensures equivalent thermal management characteristics.

Electrical Compatibility: While forward voltage and test current may differ between the main part and substitutes, the substitute must operate within the same general application voltage range and deliver comparable luminous flux output at its specified test conditions.

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 qualifies as a substitute based on matching mechanical, optical, and thermal parameters, despite operating at a different voltage and current specification (3.3V, 300mA versus 20V, 60mA).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Obsolete Part Replacement: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 is the designated substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-0009B4. Both parts are manufactured by CreeLED, Inc., and share identical mechanical, optical, and thermal specifications, ensuring direct PCB compatibility.

Product Status Advantage: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 maintains active product status, providing long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-0009B4.

Compliance Consideration: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 carries RoHS Compliant certification, whereas the main part does not specify RoHS status. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status.

Electrical Circuit Redesign Requirement: Substitution requires circuit redesign to accommodate the different voltage and current specifications. The MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 operates at 3.3V with 300mA test current, whereas the MX6SWT-H1-0000-0009B4 operates at 20V with 60mA test current. Driver and power supply modifications are necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 be used as a direct drop-in replacement without PCB modification?

A: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 is mechanically and optically compatible with the MX6SWT-H1-0000-0009B4 due to identical package type, dimensions, and height. However, the different forward voltage (3.3V versus 20V) and test current (300mA versus 60mA) require circuit redesign. PCB layout modifications may not be necessary if the footprint accommodates the exposed pad variant, but driver and power supply circuits must be redesigned.

Q: What is the significance of the exposed pad in the MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 package?

A: The 2-SMD, Gull Wing Exposed Pad package of the MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 provides enhanced thermal management compared to the standard 2-SMD, Gull Wing package of the MX6SWT-H1-0000-0009B4. Both maintain identical thermal resistance (5°C/W), but the exposed pad allows for optional thermal vias or solder connections to improve heat dissipation in high-power applications.

Q: Are the luminous flux outputs equivalent between these parts?

A: Both parts deliver 84lm (81lm ~ 87lm) at 25°C, providing equivalent luminous output. However, the MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 achieves this at higher efficiency (85 lm/W versus 70 lm/W) due to its lower voltage and higher current test conditions.

Q: What are the moisture handling requirements for both parts?

A: Both the MX6SWT-H1-0000-0009B4 and MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 carry MSL 2A (4 Weeks) classification, indicating identical moisture sensitivity levels. Storage and handling procedures must comply with this specification to prevent moisture-induced failures during assembly.

Q: Is the MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 suitable for high-temperature applications?

A: Both parts maintain identical thermal resistance (5°C/W). The MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B4 supports a maximum current of 1A compared to 175mA for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-0009B4, providing greater thermal headroom in applications requiring higher current operation. Thermal performance depends on PCB design, ambient temperature, and thermal management implementation.
