Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AB6 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility: Identical mounting type (Surface Mount), package configuration (2-SMD, Gull Wing), physical dimensions (5.00mm x 5.00mm), and thermal resistance (5°C/W) are required to ensure PCB compatibility without redesign.

Optical Compatibility: Matching color (White), viewing angle (120°), and CRI specification (80) ensure consistent lighting performance in the target application.

Electrical Compatibility: Forward voltage, test current, and maximum current ratings must be evaluated within the context of the application's power supply and circuit design. Lumens output at specified test conditions provides functional equivalence for brightness requirements.

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AB6 qualifies as a substitute based on matching mechanical and optical parameters, though electrical characteristics differ significantly due to its lower forward voltage (3.3V) and higher test current (300mA) rating.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AB6 is available as an active product from CreeLED, Inc., providing supply continuity for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AB6. Both components share identical mechanical dimensions, thermal characteristics, and optical specifications (color, viewing angle, luminous flux output).

The primary distinction lies in electrical architecture: the MX6AWT operates at 3.3V with 300mA test current, compared to the MX6SWT's 20V at 60mA. This fundamental difference requires circuit-level evaluation to determine substitution feasibility. Applications designed for the high-voltage MX6SWT topology cannot directly accept the low-voltage MX6AWT without power supply and current-limiting modifications.

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AB6 demonstrates superior luminous efficacy (92 lm/W versus 76 lm/W), offering improved energy efficiency in compatible applications. RoHS compliance status is confirmed for the MX6AWT, supporting environmental and regulatory requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AB6 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AB6?

A: Direct substitution is not possible without circuit modification. While both components share identical mechanical dimensions and thermal properties, the MX6AWT requires a 3.3V power supply versus the MX6SWT's 20V requirement. PCB layout and current-limiting circuitry must be redesigned to accommodate the different electrical specifications.

Q: Are the package configurations compatible?

A: Both components use 2-SMD, Gull Wing surface mount packages with identical 5.00mm x 5.00mm footprints and 1.48mm maximum seated height. The MX6AWT includes an exposed pad variant, which may provide improved thermal performance in applications requiring enhanced heat dissipation. PCB pad patterns must be verified for compatibility with the exposed pad configuration.

Q: What is the significance of the CRI rating difference?

A: The MX6SWT specifies a CRI of 80, while the MX6AWT does not provide a CRI specification. For applications requiring specific color rendering performance, the MX6SWT's documented CRI value should be confirmed with the MX6AWT datasheet before substitution.

Q: How do the luminous flux outputs compare?

A: Both components deliver 91lm at their respective test conditions (87lm to 94lm range). The MX6AWT achieves this output at 300mA, while the MX6SWT requires only 60mA, resulting in the MX6AWT's higher luminous efficacy rating of 92 lm/W.

Q: What are the moisture sensitivity considerations?

A: Both components carry an MSL rating of 2A (4 Weeks), indicating identical moisture sensitivity and storage requirements. Standard moisture control procedures apply to both parts during handling and assembly.
