Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AE7 qualifies as a functional substitute based on the following matching parameters:

• Color and CCT: Both parts are warm white 3000K LEDs
• CRI: Both maintain CRI of 80
• Viewing Angle: Both provide 120° viewing angle
• Package Footprint: Both use 2-SMD gull wing configuration with identical 5.00 mm × 5.00 mm dimensions and 1.48 mm seated height
• Thermal Resistance: Both specify 5°C/W thermal resistance
• Moisture Sensitivity: Both rated MSL 2A (4 Weeks)
• Regulatory Compliance: Both are REACH Unaffected and classified as EAR99

The primary differences are electrical characteristics (forward voltage and test current) and product status (obsolete vs. active). The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AE7 operates at lower voltage (3.3V) with higher test current (300mA) and improved efficiency (92 lm/W vs. 76 lm/W), while maintaining identical optical and mechanical interfaces.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AE7 is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AE7 based on the following factors:

• Product Status: The substitute is active and currently available, whereas the main part is obsolete
• Regulatory Compliance: The substitute carries RoHS Compliant certification, providing enhanced environmental compliance
• Optical Compatibility: Identical luminous flux (91 lm), color temperature (3000K), CRI (80), and viewing angle (120°) ensure optical performance equivalence
• Mechanical Compatibility: Matching footprint (5.00 mm × 5.00 mm), height (1.48 mm), and thermal resistance (5°C/W) support direct PCB layout reuse
• Electrical Redesign Required: Circuit design must accommodate the lower forward voltage (3.3V vs. 20V) and higher test current (300mA vs. 60mA). Driver and current-limiting circuitry require modification

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AE7 be used as a direct drop-in replacement without circuit modification?

A: No. While the optical and mechanical interfaces are compatible, the electrical characteristics differ significantly. The substitute operates at 3.3V forward voltage versus 20V for the original part. Current-limiting and driver circuitry must be redesigned to accommodate this voltage difference and the higher test current of 300mA.

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

A: Yes. Both parts use a 5.00 mm × 5.00 mm 2-SMD gull wing package with a maximum seated height of 1.48 mm. PCB footprints are compatible. The substitute includes an exposed pad, which may provide improved thermal performance in applications requiring enhanced heat dissipation.

Q: What is the difference between the XLamp® MX-6S and XLamp® MX-6 series?

A: The MX-6S is an obsolete series, while the MX-6 is the active successor. Both deliver equivalent optical output (91 lm at 3000K with CRI 80) but differ in electrical specifications. The MX-6 operates at lower voltage with higher efficiency (92 lm/W vs. 76 lm/W).

Q: Does the substitute meet RoHS requirements?

A: Yes. The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AE7 is RoHS Compliant. The original part does not specify RoHS status.

Q: Are both parts REACH compliant?

A: Yes. Both parts are REACH Unaffected and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes.

Q: What is the thermal resistance specification, and how does it affect design?

A: Both parts specify 5°C/W thermal resistance. This parameter indicates the temperature rise per watt of dissipated power. Thermal design calculations and PCB layout considerations remain consistent between the two parts.
