Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000DB1 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Color: White
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Package / Case: 2-SMD, Gull Wing form factor
• Size / Dimension: 5.00mm x 5.00mm footprint
• Height - Seated (Max): 1.48mm maximum
• Thermal Resistance of Package: 5°C/W
• Viewing Angle: 120°

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DB1 qualifies as a substitute based on matching physical dimensions, mounting characteristics, thermal properties, and viewing angle. However, this substitute operates at significantly different electrical parameters (3.3V forward voltage, 300mA test current) and is from the related XLamp® MX-6 series rather than the MX-6S series. Circuit design modifications are required to accommodate the different voltage and current specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DB1 is the identified substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000DB1. The substitute part is currently in active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability.

Both parts share identical physical dimensions, thermal characteristics, and viewing angle specifications, permitting direct PCB footprint compatibility. The substitute maintains REACH Unaffected status and identical moisture sensitivity classification.

The primary design consideration is the substantial difference in electrical operating parameters. The substitute operates at 3.3V forward voltage with 300mA test current, compared to the main part's 20V and 60mA specifications. This requires complete redesign of the power supply and current-limiting circuitry. The substitute delivers equivalent luminous flux (111 lumens) at its specified test current, with improved lumens-per-watt efficiency (112 lm/W versus 93 lm/W).

The substitute features an exposed pad variant of the 2-SMD Gull Wing package, which may provide enhanced thermal performance in applications requiring active heat dissipation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DB1 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000DB1?

A: No. While both parts share identical physical dimensions and thermal properties, the substitute operates at fundamentally different electrical parameters (3.3V/300mA versus 20V/60mA). Circuit redesign is required for power supply and current regulation.

Q: What are the key physical compatibility factors?

A: Both parts use identical 5.00mm x 5.00mm footprints, 1.48mm maximum seated height, and 2-SMD Gull Wing package form factors. PCB layout and reflow profiles remain compatible.

Q: How do the luminous outputs compare?

A: Both parts deliver 111 lumens at their respective test currents. The substitute achieves this output at lower voltage but higher current, resulting in superior lumens-per-watt efficiency (112 lm/W versus 93 lm/W).

Q: What is the significance of the exposed pad in the substitute package?

A: The exposed pad variant in the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DB1 provides direct thermal contact to the PCB, enabling improved heat dissipation in high-power applications compared to standard Gull Wing packages.

Q: Are there regulatory or compliance differences?

A: Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and identical moisture sensitivity levels (2A, 4 Weeks). No compliance barriers exist for substitution from a regulatory standpoint.

Q: Why is the main part classified as obsolete?

A: The MX6SWT-H1-0000-000DB1 has been discontinued by the manufacturer. The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DB1 from the related XLamp® MX-6 series represents the current production alternative for white LED applications in this form factor.
