Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution of the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000CE6 is based on the following critical parameters:
- Color and CCT Match: Both parts must be warm white at 3500K
- Viewing Angle: 120° maintained across all alternatives
- Package Footprint: 2-SMD, Gull Wing configuration with 5.00 mm × 5.00 mm dimensions
- Thermal Characteristics: 5°C/W thermal resistance
- Mounting Type: Surface mount compatibility
- CRI: Color rendering index of 80
The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BE6 qualifies as a substitute based on matching color temperature, viewing angle, package dimensions, thermal resistance, and CRI. However, this substitute operates at significantly different electrical parameters (3.3V forward voltage, 300mA test current) and represents a different product series (XLamp® MX-6 versus MX-6S), requiring circuit redesign for voltage and current compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BE6 is the identified substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000CE6. Selection of this alternative requires the following considerations:
Electrical Redesign Required: The substitute operates at 3.3V typical forward voltage with 300mA test current, compared to the main part's 20V and 60mA specifications. Direct pin-for-pin replacement is not possible without circuit modification to accommodate the lower voltage and higher current requirements.
Compliance Advantage: The substitute is RoHS Compliant and carries Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment. The main part's obsolete status necessitates transition planning.
Optical and Thermal Compatibility: Both parts maintain identical 3500K color temperature, 120° viewing angle, 80 CRI, and 5°C/W thermal resistance, supporting equivalent optical performance in applications where electrical parameters can be accommodated.
Package Consideration: The substitute features an exposed pad variant of the 2-SMD Gull Wing package, providing improved thermal management compared to the standard gull wing configuration.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BE6 be used as a direct replacement for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000CE6?
A: No. While both parts share identical color temperature (3500K), viewing angle (120°), and package footprint (5.00 mm × 5.00 mm), the substitute requires circuit redesign. The main part operates at 20V/60mA, while the substitute operates at 3.3V/300mA. Direct substitution without electrical circuit modification will result in component failure or malfunction.
Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution eligibility?
A: Substitution is based on: color temperature (3500K), viewing angle (120°), CRI (80), package type (2-SMD Gull Wing), physical dimensions (5.00 mm × 5.00 mm), height (1.48 mm maximum), and thermal resistance (5°C/W). Electrical parameters (voltage and current) are application-dependent and do not prevent substitution if circuit design is adjusted accordingly.
Q: Why is the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000CE6 classified as obsolete?
A: The part is listed as obsolete by the manufacturer. The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BE6 from the newer XLamp® MX-6 series represents the active product line continuation, offering improved efficiency (98 lm/W versus 87 lm/W) and RoHS compliance.
Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitute?
A: Yes. The main part uses standard 2-SMD Gull Wing packaging, while the substitute uses 2-SMD Gull Wing with an exposed pad. The exposed pad in the substitute provides enhanced thermal dissipation. Both maintain identical external dimensions and height specifications.
Q: What is the impact of the higher test current in the substitute?
A: The substitute's 300mA test current (versus 60mA in the main part) reflects its lower forward voltage design (3.3V versus 20V). Power dissipation at test conditions is comparable (0.99W for substitute versus 1.2W for main part). Circuit design must accommodate the higher current requirement through appropriate current limiting and power supply specifications.
Q: Is the substitute RoHS compliant?
A: Yes. The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000BE6 is RoHS Compliant. The main part's RoHS status is not specified in the provided data.
