Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution between MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AA9 and MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AA9 is permissible based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

Matching Parameters:

  • Color temperature: Both 2850K warm white
  • Color rendering index: Both CRI 80
  • Viewing angle: Both 120°
  • Package footprint: Both 5.00mm x 5.00mm, 2-SMD Gull Wing
  • Thermal resistance: Both 5°C/W
  • Moisture sensitivity: Both MSL 2A (4 Weeks)
  • Mounting type: Both surface mount

Differing Parameters: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AA9 operates at significantly different electrical specifications (3.3V forward voltage, 300mA test current) compared to the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AA9 (20V forward voltage, 60mA test current). These differences require circuit-level evaluation and are not interchangeable without corresponding power supply and current-limiting modifications.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AA9 is the designated successor to the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AA9. Both parts maintain identical optical characteristics (2850K color temperature, CRI 80, 120° viewing angle) and mechanical compatibility (5.00mm footprint, 1.48mm height, 5°C/W thermal resistance).

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AA9 offers the following advantages:

  • Active product status with ongoing manufacturer support
  • RoHS compliance certification
  • Improved efficiency (92 lm/W versus 76 lm/W at respective test currents)
  • Higher maximum current rating (1A versus 175mA)

Direct substitution requires redesign of the power supply and current-limiting circuit due to the 20V-to-3.3V forward voltage reduction and corresponding increase in test current from 60mA to 300mA. The identical package footprint and thermal characteristics facilitate PCB-level compatibility once electrical modifications are implemented.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AA9 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AA9?

A: No. While both parts share identical optical output (91lm at 2850K), viewing angle (120°), and physical footprint (5.00mm x 5.00mm), they operate at fundamentally different electrical specifications. The MX6SWT requires 20V forward voltage at 60mA, while the MX6AWT requires 3.3V at 300mA. Circuit redesign is mandatory.

Q: Are the package dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts measure 5.00mm x 5.00mm with a maximum seated height of 1.48mm. The MX6AWT includes an exposed pad variant of the 2-SMD Gull Wing package, which may provide improved thermal performance in specific PCB layouts.

Q: What is the significance of the obsolete status of MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AA9?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AA9 is the active replacement, ensuring long-term availability and manufacturer support for new designs and production continuity.

Q: Are compliance certifications equivalent between the two parts?

A: Both parts carry identical REACH and ECCN classifications (REACH Unaffected, EAR99). The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AA9 additionally carries RoHS compliance certification, providing enhanced regulatory alignment for applications subject to RoHS requirements.

Q: How do the thermal characteristics compare?

A: Thermal resistance is identical at 5°C/W for both parts. Moisture sensitivity levels are also equivalent (MSL 2A, 4 weeks). Thermal performance in application depends on PCB layout and thermal management design rather than inherent part differences.
