Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000DE4 is based on the following critical parameters:

• Color and CCT Match: White, Neutral 4500K (identical specification required)
• Flux Output: 111 lm nominal at test conditions (107–114 lm acceptable range)
• Viewing Angle: 120° (mechanical and optical compatibility)
• Package Type: 2-SMD, Gull Wing surface mount configuration
• Physical Dimensions: 5.00 mm × 5.00 mm footprint with 1.48 mm max seated height
• Thermal Characteristics: 5°C/W thermal resistance
• Moisture Sensitivity: 2A classification

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DE4 qualifies as a substitute based on matching color, CCT, flux output, viewing angle, package footprint, and thermal properties. However, electrical operating parameters differ significantly, requiring circuit design verification.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DE4 is the identified substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000DE4. Selection of this substitute is supported by:

• Product Status: The substitute is active and currently manufactured, ensuring long-term availability compared to the obsolete main part.
• Compliance: The substitute carries RoHS Compliant certification, meeting modern regulatory requirements.
• Optical and Mechanical Compatibility: Identical color temperature (4500K), flux output (111 lm), viewing angle (120°), footprint (5.00 mm × 5.00 mm), and thermal resistance (5°C/W) ensure direct mechanical and optical substitution.
• Regulatory Alignment: Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and equivalent moisture sensitivity classification.

Critical Design Consideration: The substitute operates at 3.3V typical forward voltage with 300 mA test current, compared to the main part's 20V at 60 mA. Circuit redesign is required to accommodate the different electrical operating point. The substitute achieves higher efficiency (112 lm/W vs. 93 lm/W) at its specified operating current.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DE4 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000DE4?

A: Mechanically and optically, yes. Both parts share identical footprint (5.00 mm × 5.00 mm), height (1.48 mm), viewing angle (120°), and flux output (111 lm at 4500K). However, electrical operating parameters differ significantly. The substitute requires 3.3V at 300 mA versus the main part's 20V at 60 mA. Circuit redesign is necessary.

Q: What are the key substitution criteria for this LED?

A: Substitution is determined by color (White, Neutral 4500K), flux output (111 lm nominal), viewing angle (120°), package type (2-SMD, Gull Wing), physical dimensions (5.00 mm × 5.00 mm × 1.48 mm max), and thermal resistance (5°C/W).

Q: Why is the main part obsolete?

A: The MX6SWT-H1-0000-000DE4 belongs to the XLamp® MX-6S series, which has been superseded by the XLamp® MX-6 series. The substitute part represents the current generation equivalent.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The main part packaging is not specified. The substitute is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. The package case differs slightly: the main part uses standard 2-SMD Gull Wing, while the substitute uses 2-SMD Gull Wing with Exposed Pad for improved thermal performance.

Q: What is the impact of the different forward voltages?

A: The substitute operates at significantly lower forward voltage (3.3V vs. 20V). This requires complete redesign of the LED driver circuit, including current limiting resistors or active current regulation. The substitute's higher current requirement (300 mA vs. 60 mA) also impacts power dissipation and thermal management design.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulations?

A: Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status. The substitute carries RoHS Compliant certification, meeting modern environmental standards. The main part's RoHS status is not specified.
