Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DE3 is the designated substitute for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-0000-000EE3. Both components share identical optical characteristics (5000K CCT, 80 CRI, 120° viewing angle), mechanical compatibility (5.00mm x 5.00mm footprint, 1.48mm height, 2-SMD Gull Wing package), and thermal properties (5°C/W).

The primary design consideration is the electrical interface: the substitute operates at 3.3V forward voltage with 300mA test current, compared to the main part's 20V and 60mA. Circuit design must accommodate this voltage and current difference through appropriate power supply and current-limiting provisions.

The substitute's active product status and RoHS compliance provide advantages for long-term supply chain continuity and regulatory alignment. The substitute delivers higher luminous efficacy (112 lm/W vs. 98 lm/W), resulting in improved energy efficiency at its specified operating point.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DE3 be used as a direct pin-for-pin replacement?

A: Both parts share identical 2-SMD Gull Wing package geometry and footprint (5.00mm x 5.00mm, 1.48mm height), enabling direct PCB placement compatibility. However, the electrical operating parameters differ significantly: forward voltage is 3.3V (vs. 20V) and test current is 300mA (vs. 60mA). Circuit redesign is required to accommodate these electrical differences.

Q: What are the optical compatibility considerations?

A: Both components deliver equivalent optical performance: 5000K cool white color temperature, 80 CRI, and 120° viewing angle. Luminous flux differs slightly (111lm vs. 118lm at test current), representing a 6% reduction. This difference reflects the different operating currents and should be evaluated against application brightness requirements.

Q: Is the substitute suitable for existing designs without modification?

A: PCB layout and mechanical mounting are compatible without modification. Electrical circuit redesign is mandatory due to the 20V-to-3.3V voltage reduction and 60mA-to-300mA current increase. Power supply, current limiting, and thermal management provisions must be recalculated.

Q: What compliance advantages does the substitute offer?

A: The MX6AWT-H1-0000-000DE3 carries active product status and RoHS compliance certification, whereas the main part is obsolete with unspecified RoHS status. The substitute ensures ongoing manufacturer support and regulatory alignment for new designs.

Q: Are there thermal management differences?

A: Both components specify identical thermal resistance (5°C/W). However, the substitute's higher operating current (300mA vs. 60mA) will generate proportionally greater heat dissipation. Thermal design must account for this increased power density.
