Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AZ8 is based on the following electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Color and CCT: White, Warm 2700K
• Viewing Angle: 120°
• Package Type: 2-SMD, Gull Wing configuration
• Physical Dimensions: 5.00mm × 5.00mm footprint
• Height - Seated (Max): 1.48mm
• Thermal Resistance: 5°C/W
• CRI: 80
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 2A (4 Weeks)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Voltage - Forward (Vf): Different operating voltage acceptable if circuit design accommodates
• Current - Test: Different test current acceptable if within device maximum rating
• Flux Output: Equivalent lumen output within acceptable tolerance
• Lumens/Watt: Efficiency variation acceptable based on operating conditions
• Current - Max: Higher maximum current rating acceptable for design margin
• Product Status: Active status preferred over obsolete for long-term availability

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AZ8 qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching all mandatory parameters while offering improved product status (Active) and enhanced electrical performance characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AZ8 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AZ8 based on the following factors:

Product Status: The substitute part maintains Active status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity compared to the obsolete main part.

Compliance & Certifications: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AZ8 carries RoHS Compliant certification, meeting modern regulatory requirements. Both parts share identical REACH Status (REACH Unaffected) and ECCN/HTSUS classifications.

Electrical Performance: While the substitute operates at significantly lower forward voltage (3.3V vs. 20V) and higher test current (300mA vs. 60mA), it delivers identical luminous flux output (91 lm) with superior efficiency (92 lm/W vs. 76 lm/W). Circuit design must accommodate the different voltage and current operating point.

Mechanical & Thermal Compatibility: Both parts share identical physical dimensions (5.00mm × 5.00mm), maximum seated height (1.48mm), thermal resistance (5°C/W), and moisture sensitivity level (2A, 4 Weeks). The substitute features an exposed pad variant of the gull wing package, providing enhanced thermal management.

Packaging: The substitute is available in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, supporting automated assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AZ8 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AZ8?

A: The parts share identical physical dimensions, footprint, and thermal characteristics, allowing PCB-level compatibility. However, the circuit design must be modified to accommodate the different forward voltage (3.3V vs. 20V) and test current (300mA vs. 60mA) operating points. Direct substitution without circuit redesign is not possible.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are forward voltage (20V vs. 3.3V), test current (60mA vs. 300mA), maximum current rating (175mA vs. 1A), and efficiency (76 lm/W vs. 92 lm/W). Both deliver identical luminous flux (91 lm) at 2700K color temperature with 80 CRI and 120° viewing angle.

Q: Why is the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AZ8 obsolete?

A: The part is classified as obsolete by the manufacturer. The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AZ8 from the newer XLamp® MX-6 series provides equivalent optical performance with improved electrical efficiency and active product status.

Q: Are there any thermal management differences between the two parts?

A: Both parts have identical thermal resistance (5°C/W) and maximum seated height (1.48mm). The substitute features an exposed pad design, which may provide marginal thermal performance improvement in applications requiring enhanced heat dissipation.

Q: What packaging options are available for the substitute part?

A: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AZ8 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly. The original part was supplied in standard packaging.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: The substitute part (MX6AWT-H1-0000-000AZ8) is explicitly RoHS Compliant. RoHS status for the original part (MX6SWT-H1-0000-000AZ8) is not specified in the provided data.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: No. While mechanically compatible, the significant difference in forward voltage and operating current requires circuit redesign. The substitute is suitable for new designs or redesigned applications requiring the 2700K warm white LED specification.
