Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AB3 is identified as a substitute for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AB3 based on the following substitution criteria:

Mechanical Compatibility:

• Identical mounting type (Surface Mount)
• Identical package configuration (2-SMD, Gull Wing)
• Identical physical dimensions (5.00mm × 5.00mm)
• Identical maximum seated height (1.48mm)
• Identical thermal resistance (5°C/W)

Optical Compatibility:

• Identical color (White)
• Identical viewing angle (120°)
• Identical luminous flux output at test conditions (91 lm, 87–94 lm range)

Environmental & Regulatory Compatibility:

• Identical moisture sensitivity level (2A, 4 Weeks)
• Identical REACH status (REACH Unaffected)
• Identical ECCN classification (EAR99)
• Identical HTSUS code (8541.41.0000)

Key Difference: The substitute operates at 3.3V forward voltage with a 300mA test current, compared to the main part's 20V/60mA specification. This represents a different electrical operating point within the same product family. The substitute is active product status, whereas the main part is obsolete.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Substitution Feasibility: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AB3 is mechanically and optically compatible with the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AB3. Both components share identical physical dimensions, thermal characteristics, and luminous output specifications. The substitute is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability compared to the obsolete main part.

Electrical Circuit Redesign Required: Direct substitution requires circuit modification. The substitute operates at 3.3V forward voltage versus the main part's 20V specification. Driver circuits, current-limiting resistors, and power supply configurations must be redesigned to accommodate the lower voltage and higher current requirements (300mA test current versus 60mA).

Compliance Advantage: The substitute carries RoHS Compliant certification, whereas the main part does not specify RoHS status. Both components maintain identical REACH Unaffected status and ECCN/HTSUS classifications.

Packaging Consideration: The substitute is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, suitable for automated assembly processes. The main part is supplied in bulk packaging.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AB3 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AB3?

A: No. While both components are mechanically and optically identical, the substitute operates at 3.3V forward voltage compared to the main part's 20V specification. Circuit redesign is required to accommodate the different electrical operating point.

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

A: Yes. Both components measure 5.00mm × 5.00mm with a maximum seated height of 1.48mm. They share identical thermal resistance (5°C/W) and are both surface mount devices with 2-SMD, Gull Wing package configurations.

Q: What is the difference between the package designations "2-SMD, Gull Wing" and "2-SMD, Gull Wing Exposed Pad"?

A: The substitute includes an exposed pad in its package design, which may provide improved thermal performance in certain PCB layouts. Both packages are mechanically compatible with standard 5.00mm × 5.00mm footprints.

Q: Do both parts deliver the same luminous flux output?

A: Yes. Both components deliver 91 lumens at 25°C within the 87–94 lm range. However, the substitute achieves higher efficiency (92 lm/W versus 76 lm/W) due to its lower operating voltage and higher test current.

Q: Is the substitute available in the same packaging format as the main part?

A: No. The main part is supplied in bulk packaging, while the substitute is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for automated assembly operations.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS Compliant certification on the substitute?

A: The substitute carries explicit RoHS Compliant certification, confirming compliance with Restriction of Hazardous Substances regulations. The main part does not specify RoHS status. Both maintain identical REACH Unaffected status.
