Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AF8 qualifies as a functional equivalent based on the following substitution criteria:

Matching Parameters:

• Color and CCT: Both parts are warm white 2900K
• Flux output: Identical 91 lm specification at 25°C (87–94 lm range)
• CRI: Both rated at 80
• Viewing angle: Both 120°
• Package footprint: Both 2-SMD, gull wing, 5.00mm × 5.00mm
• Height: Both 1.48mm seated maximum
• Thermal resistance: Both 5°C/W
• MSL rating: Both 2A (4 Weeks)
• Regulatory compliance: Both REACH Unaffected, ECCN EAR99

Differing Parameters:

• Voltage - Forward (Typ): MX6SWT operates at 20V; MX6AWT operates at 3.3V
• Current - Test: MX6SWT at 60mA; MX6AWT at 300mA
• Current - Max: MX6SWT 175mA; MX6AWT 1A
• Lumens/Watt: MX6SWT 76 lm/W; MX6AWT 92 lm/W
• Product Status: MX6SWT is obsolete; MX6AWT is active
• Packaging: MX6SWT standard; MX6AWT available in Tape & Reel
• RoHS Status: MX6AWT explicitly RoHS Compliant

The substitution is valid for applications where the lower forward voltage (3.3V) and higher test current (300mA) of the MX6AWT can be accommodated in the circuit design. Both parts deliver identical luminous output and color characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AF8 is the designated substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AF8. Selection of the MX6AWT is supported by:

• Active product status ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity
• RoHS compliance certification for regulatory alignment with modern manufacturing standards
• Identical luminous output (91 lm) and color temperature (2900K, CRI 80) ensuring optical performance equivalence
• Identical package footprint and thermal characteristics enabling direct PCB layout compatibility
• Higher efficiency (92 lm/W vs. 76 lm/W) providing improved power utilization

Circuit design modification is required to accommodate the MX6AWT's lower forward voltage (3.3V vs. 20V) and higher test current (300mA vs. 60mA). Current-limiting resistor values and power supply specifications must be recalculated accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AF8 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AF8?

A: No. While both parts share identical package dimensions, footprint, and optical output, the MX6AWT operates at 3.3V forward voltage compared to the MX6SWT's 20V. Circuit redesign is necessary to adjust current-limiting resistors and power supply configuration.

Q: Are the luminous output specifications identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts deliver 91 lumens at 25°C (87–94 lm range) with identical 2900K color temperature and 80 CRI rating. The MX6AWT achieves this output at higher efficiency (92 lm/W vs. 76 lm/W).

Q: What is the significance of the "Exposed Pad" designation in the MX6AWT package?

A: The exposed pad in the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AF8 provides enhanced thermal dissipation compared to the standard gull wing package of the MX6SWT. Both parts maintain identical 5°C/W thermal resistance specifications.

Q: Is the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AF8 available in tape and reel packaging?

A: Yes. The MX6AWT is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, suitable for automated assembly processes. The MX6SWT packaging format is not specified in available documentation.

Q: What are the maximum current ratings for each part?

A: The MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AF8 has a maximum current rating of 175mA. The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AF8 has a maximum current rating of 1A. Both must be operated within these limits to ensure reliability and longevity.

Q: Are both parts compliant with RoHS regulations?

A: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AF8 is explicitly RoHS Compliant. RoHS status for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AF8 is not specified in available documentation. Both parts are REACH Unaffected.
