Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-0009B7 is determined by the following critical parameters:

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

Optical Characteristics: Viewing angle (120°) and color (white) must remain consistent to preserve application performance and visual output.

Electrical Operating Range: Forward voltage (Vf), test current, and maximum current ratings define the power supply and circuit design requirements. Substitutes must operate within the same voltage class to maintain compatibility with existing driver circuits.

Luminous Output: Flux output at 25°C and lumens per watt efficiency should remain within acceptable ranges to preserve application brightness and power consumption profiles.

Environmental & Compliance: Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 2A), REACH status, and thermal resistance characteristics must be maintained for reliability and regulatory compliance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B7 is available as an active product from CreeLED, Inc., providing supply chain continuity for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-0009B7. Both parts share identical mechanical footprints, viewing angles, luminous flux output, and environmental compliance ratings.

The primary difference is electrical operating voltage: the MX6AWT operates at 3.3V with 300mA test current, compared to the MX6SWT's 20V at 60mA. This represents a fundamental change in power supply requirements and circuit design. Applications currently designed for 20V operation require driver circuit redesign to accommodate 3.3V operation.

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B7 demonstrates improved efficiency (85 lm/W versus 70 lm/W) and higher maximum current rating (1A versus 175mA). The package includes an exposed pad variant, which may provide enhanced thermal performance in high-power applications.

Both parts maintain REACH compliance and identical moisture sensitivity specifications, supporting equivalent reliability and regulatory requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B7 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-0009B7?

A: No. While both parts share identical mechanical footprints and optical characteristics, the MX6AWT operates at 3.3V compared to the MX6SWT's 20V. Direct substitution requires redesign of the power supply and LED driver circuit. PCB layout modifications may not be necessary, but electrical design changes are mandatory.

Q: Are the package dimensions identical between these two parts?

A: Yes. Both parts use a 2-SMD Gull Wing package with 5.00mm x 5.00mm footprint and 1.48mm maximum seated height. The MX6AWT includes an exposed pad variant, which does not affect footprint compatibility but may improve thermal performance.

Q: What is the significance of the exposed pad on the MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B7?

A: The exposed pad provides a direct thermal path to the PCB, improving heat dissipation. This is beneficial in applications operating at higher current levels (up to 1A) but does not affect electrical compatibility or footprint alignment.

Q: Do both parts meet the same environmental and compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both the MX6SWT-H1-0000-0009B7 and MX6AWT-H1-0000-0009B7 maintain MSL 2A (4 Weeks) moisture sensitivity ratings, REACH Unaffected status, and identical thermal resistance specifications (5°C/W).

Q: Why does the MX6AWT have higher lumens per watt efficiency?

A: The MX6AWT achieves 85 lm/W at 300mA test current, compared to 70 lm/W for the MX6SWT at 60mA. This reflects the different operating points and LED technology generation. Both deliver identical luminous flux (84lm) at their respective test currents.
