Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000DB6 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Color: White (exact match required)
• Viewing Angle: 120° (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 2-SMD, Gull Wing form factor (exact match required)
• Physical Dimensions: 5.00mm x 5.00mm footprint (exact match required)
• Thermal Resistance: 5°C/W (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (exact match required)

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DB1 qualifies as a substitute based on matching all mechanical and optical parameters. However, this substitute operates at significantly different electrical parameters: 3.3V forward voltage and 300mA test current, compared to the original part's 20V and 60mA specifications. Circuit redesign is required when implementing this substitute.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DB1 is the identified substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000DB6. Selection of this substitute is supported by the following factors:

• Product Status: The substitute is classified as Active, ensuring ongoing availability and manufacturing support from CreeLED, Inc.
• Compliance: Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification, with identical HTSUS codes (8541.41.0000).
• Regulatory Alignment: The substitute carries RoHS Compliant certification, providing enhanced environmental compliance compared to the main part.
• Mechanical Compatibility: Identical footprint, height, and thermal characteristics enable direct PCB layout reuse.

Critical Design Consideration: The substitute operates at 3.3V forward voltage with 300mA test current, whereas the main part operates at 20V and 60mA. Power supply architecture and current-limiting circuitry must be redesigned to accommodate these electrical differences. The substitute delivers identical luminous flux (111lm) at its specified test current, resulting in improved lumens-per-watt efficiency (112 lm/W vs. 93 lm/W).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DB1 be used as a direct drop-in replacement without circuit modification?

A: No. While the substitute shares identical mechanical dimensions, footprint, and thermal characteristics, it requires circuit redesign due to different electrical specifications (3.3V/300mA vs. 20V/60mA). Power supply voltage and current-limiting resistor values must be recalculated.

Q: Are the luminous output characteristics identical between the main part and substitute?

A: Both parts deliver 111 lumens at their respective test currents (60mA for MX6SWT-H1-0000-000DB6 and 300mA for MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DB1). The substitute achieves higher lumens-per-watt efficiency (112 lm/W vs. 93 lm/W) due to its lower forward voltage.

Q: What is the difference between the 2-SMD Gull Wing and 2-SMD Gull Wing Exposed Pad packages?

A: The substitute includes an exposed thermal pad, which provides enhanced heat dissipation compared to the standard gull wing package. Both maintain identical external dimensions and footprint compatibility.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: The substitute carries RoHS Compliant certification, whereas the main part does not specify RoHS status. Both maintain REACH Unaffected status and identical ECCN/HTSUS classifications.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level, and how does it affect handling?

A: Both parts are classified as MSL 2A (4 Weeks), indicating they must be stored in controlled humidity environments and used within four weeks of package opening. Standard ESD and moisture control procedures apply.
