Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000BZ5 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Color and Correlated Color Temperature (CCT): Both parts must be white neutral at 4000K
• Viewing Angle: 120° maintained across both parts
• Package Type: 2-SMD, Gull Wing configuration required for mechanical compatibility
• Physical Dimensions: 5.00mm x 5.00mm footprint and 1.48mm maximum seated height
• Thermal Resistance: 5°C/W package thermal performance
• CRI (Color Rendering Index): 80 maintained for color quality consistency

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BZ5 qualifies as a substitute based on matching these core parameters. However, significant differences exist in electrical operating characteristics (forward voltage and test current), which must be evaluated within the context of the application circuit design.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BZ5 is the designated substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000BZ5. Selection of this substitute is supported by the following factors:

• Product Status: The substitute is active and currently available, whereas the main part is obsolete
• Compliance: The substitute is RoHS compliant, providing regulatory advantage for new designs and production
• Optical Performance: Both parts deliver identical luminous flux (97lm) and color characteristics (4000K, CRI 80) at their respective test currents
• Mechanical Compatibility: Identical footprint (5.00mm x 5.00mm), height (1.48mm), and thermal resistance (5°C/W) ensure direct PCB layout compatibility
• Electrical Differences: The substitute operates at significantly lower forward voltage (3.3V vs. 20V) and higher test current (300mA vs. 60mA). Circuit design modifications are required to accommodate these electrical characteristics

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BZ5 be used as a direct drop-in replacement without circuit modification?

A: No. While the parts share identical optical and mechanical characteristics, the electrical operating parameters differ substantially. The substitute requires 3.3V forward voltage compared to 20V for the main part. Current-limiting resistor values and power supply design must be recalculated for the 300mA test current specification.

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

A: The footprints and dimensions are identical (5.00mm x 5.00mm, 1.48mm height). However, the substitute features an exposed pad in the 2-SMD Gull Wing package, whereas the main part does not. This exposed pad provides improved thermal performance and may require PCB layout adjustments for thermal management.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference?

A: The main part (MX6SWT-H1-0000-000BZ5) is obsolete and no longer manufactured. The substitute (MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BZ5) is active and available from inventory. For new designs or production continuity, the active substitute is the appropriate selection.

Q: Do both parts meet the same environmental and compliance standards?

A: Both parts share identical moisture sensitivity levels (MSL 2A, 4 Weeks) and REACH status (REACH Unaffected). The substitute provides additional compliance through RoHS certification, which is not specified for the main part.

Q: How do the luminous efficiency ratings compare?

A: The substitute delivers higher luminous efficiency at 98 lm/W compared to 81 lm/W for the main part, both measured at their respective test currents. This represents improved energy efficiency in the substitute design.
