Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000EB3 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility:

Package type: 2-SMD, Gull Wing configuration
Physical dimensions: 5.00 mm × 5.00 mm footprint
Height: 1.48 mm maximum seated height
Mounting type: Surface Mount

Optical Compatibility:

Color: White
Viewing angle: 120°

Electrical Compatibility:

Forward voltage operating range
Luminous flux output at specified test conditions
Current rating and thermal characteristics

The substitute part MX6AWT-H1-0000-000CB3 shares identical mechanical dimensions, package configuration, color specification, and viewing angle. However, it operates at significantly different electrical parameters (3.3V forward voltage vs. 20V, and 300mA test current vs. 60mA), requiring circuit-level design changes for direct substitution.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000CB3 is the documented substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000EB3. Both parts are manufactured by CreeLED, Inc., and share identical mechanical form factors, package configurations, and thermal characteristics.

Status Advantage: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000CB3 maintains active product status with RoHS compliance certification, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment.

Critical Design Consideration: Direct pin-for-pin substitution is not possible due to fundamental electrical parameter differences. The MX6AWT operates at 3.3V forward voltage with 300mA test current, compared to the MX6SWT's 20V and 60mA specifications. Circuit redesign is required to accommodate the different voltage and current requirements.

Optical Performance: The MX6AWT delivers 104 lumens at 25°C, representing a 12% reduction compared to the MX6SWT's 118 lumens. Both maintain 120° viewing angle and white color specification.

Packaging Consideration: The MX6AWT is supplied in Tape & Reel format, supporting automated assembly workflows, whereas the MX6SWT was supplied in bulk packaging.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000CB3 be used as a direct replacement for the MX6SWT-H1-0000-000EB3?

A: No. While both parts share identical mechanical dimensions and package configuration, they operate at different electrical parameters. The MX6AWT requires 3.3V forward voltage and 300mA test current, whereas the MX6SWT requires 20V and 60mA. Circuit-level modifications are necessary.

Q: What are the key mechanical compatibility factors?

A: Both parts use 2-SMD gull wing packages with 5.00 mm × 5.00 mm footprints and 1.48 mm maximum seated height. PCB layout and reflow profiles remain compatible. The MX6AWT includes an exposed pad variant, which may provide improved thermal performance in high-power applications.

Q: How do the optical specifications compare?

A: Both parts emit white light with 120° viewing angle. The MX6SWT produces 118 lumens at 60mA, while the MX6AWT produces 104 lumens at 300mA. The MX6SWT specifies CRI 80; the MX6AWT does not provide CRI data.

Q: What is the impact of the different test currents?

A: The MX6SWT operates efficiently at low current (60mA maximum 175mA), while the MX6AWT is designed for higher current operation (300mA test, 1A maximum). Power supply and current limiting circuits must be redesigned accordingly.

Q: Are there compliance or regulatory differences?

A: Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 ECCN classification. The MX6AWT additionally carries RoHS Compliant certification, providing regulatory advantage for new designs.

Q: What packaging formats are available?

A: The MX6SWT was supplied in bulk packaging. The MX6AWT is supplied in Tape & Reel format, supporting high-volume automated assembly.
