Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BA7 qualifies as a substitute based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

Matching Parameters:

• Color temperature: 3250K warm white (identical)
• Color Rendering Index: 80 (identical)
• Viewing angle: 120° (identical)
• Package type: 2-SMD, Gull Wing (identical mechanical footprint)
• Physical dimensions: 5.00 mm × 5.00 mm (identical)
• Height seated: 1.48 mm (identical)
• Thermal resistance: 5°C/W (identical)
• Moisture sensitivity: 2A, 4 Weeks (identical)
• Manufacturer: CreeLED, Inc. (same source)
• Series: XLamp® MX-6 (same product family)

Differing Parameters: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BA7 operates at 3.3V forward voltage with 300 mA test current, compared to the MX6SWT's 20V and 60 mA. This represents a fundamental electrical redesign within the same product family, reflecting evolution from the MX-6S to the MX-6 architecture. The substitute achieves higher efficiency (98 lm/W vs. 81 lm/W) and supports higher maximum current (1A vs. 175 mA).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Obsolete Part Replacement: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BA7 is the direct successor within the XLamp® product family. Its Active product status ensures ongoing availability and manufacturing support. Both parts share identical optical characteristics (3250K, 80 CRI, 120° viewing angle) and mechanical footprint, enabling direct PCB compatibility.

Electrical Circuit Redesign Required: Substitution requires modification of the LED drive circuit. The MX6AWT operates at 3.3V with 300 mA nominal current, versus the MX6SWT's 20V and 60 mA specification. Power supply voltage and current-limiting resistor values must be recalculated accordingly. The substitute's higher efficiency (98 lm/W) and increased maximum current rating (1A) provide design flexibility for brightness adjustment.

Compliance Advantage: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BA7 carries explicit RoHS Compliance certification, whereas the obsolete MX6SWT does not specify RoHS status. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and identical moisture sensitivity levels.

Package Consideration: The substitute features an exposed pad variant of the 2-SMD Gull Wing package, which may improve thermal performance in high-power applications through enhanced PCB thermal coupling.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BA7 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000BA7?

A: No. While both parts share identical physical dimensions, optical properties, and mechanical footprint, the electrical specifications differ fundamentally. The MX6AWT requires a 3.3V power supply and 300 mA drive current, compared to the MX6SWT's 20V and 60 mA. Circuit redesign is mandatory.

Q: Are the optical characteristics identical between these two parts?

A: Yes. Both parts deliver 97 lm at 3250K warm white with 80 CRI and 120° viewing angle. Luminous flux output and color rendering are equivalent.

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

A: The exposed pad provides direct thermal contact to the PCB, improving heat dissipation. This is beneficial for applications requiring sustained operation at maximum current levels.

Q: Does the MX6AWT's higher efficiency rating affect light output?

A: The higher efficiency (98 lm/W vs. 81 lm/W) reflects improved energy conversion within the newer MX-6 architecture. At the specified 300 mA test current, both parts produce 97 lm. The efficiency improvement becomes apparent when comparing power consumption: the MX6AWT achieves the same light output with lower input power.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the two parts?

A: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BA7 is explicitly RoHS Compliant, while the obsolete MX6SWT does not specify RoHS status. Both maintain REACH Unaffected classification and identical moisture sensitivity levels (2A, 4 Weeks).

Q: What is the maximum current rating for each part?

A: The MX6SWT-H1-0000-000BA7 supports 175 mA maximum current. The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BA7 supports 1A maximum current, providing greater headroom for brightness adjustment in the substitute design.
