MX6SWT-H1-R250-000DB2 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MX6SWT-H1-R250-000DB2 is an XLamp® MX-6S White LED in 2-SMD Gull Wing surface mount packaging, designed for lighting applications requiring 20V forward voltage operation at 60mA test current. This component is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of equivalent substitute parts for ongoing production and maintenance applications. The MX-6S series has been superseded by the MX-6 series, requiring careful parameter alignment for successful substitution.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MX6SWT-H1-R250-000DB2 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility: Package type (2-SMD Gull Wing), physical dimensions (5.00mm x 5.00mm), and height (1.48mm maximum) must match to ensure PCB footprint compatibility and assembly process alignment.

Optical Compatibility: Color (White), viewing angle (120°), and flux output (111lm nominal at test conditions) establish functional equivalence for lighting performance.

Electrical Compatibility: Forward voltage (Vf), test current, maximum current rating, and thermal resistance determine circuit design feasibility and power supply requirements.

Regulatory Compliance: REACH status, ECCN classification, and moisture sensitivity level must be maintained or improved for supply chain and manufacturing continuity.

The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000DB1 qualifies as a substitute based on matching mechanical envelope, optical characteristics, and regulatory compliance, despite operating at different electrical parameters (3.3V forward voltage, 300mA test current).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000DB1 is an active product with RoHS compliance certification, providing supply chain continuity for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-R250-000DB2. Both components share identical mechanical envelopes, optical output, thermal characteristics, and regulatory classifications (REACH Unaffected, EAR99).

Substitution requires circuit redesign due to significant electrical parameter differences: the MX6AWT-A1-R250-000DB1 operates at 3.3V forward voltage with 300mA test current, compared to the original 20V at 60mA. The substitute demonstrates improved efficiency (112 lm/W versus 93 lm/W at respective test currents). The exposed pad variant of the substitute package may provide enhanced thermal performance in high-power applications.

Selection of the MX6AWT-A1-R250-000DB1 is appropriate for new designs and production transitions where circuit topology can accommodate the lower voltage, higher current operating point.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-A1-R250-000DB1 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the MX6SWT-H1-R250-000DB2?

A: No. While both components share identical physical dimensions (5.00mm x 5.00mm), height (1.48mm), and viewing angle (120°), they operate at fundamentally different electrical parameters. The substitute requires 3.3V forward voltage at 300mA test current, whereas the original operates at 20V at 60mA. Direct substitution without circuit modification will result in component failure or inadequate performance.

Q: Are the package types compatible?

A: Both components use 2-SMD Gull Wing surface mount packaging with identical footprint dimensions. The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000DB1 includes an exposed pad, which is a mechanical enhancement that does not affect PCB footprint compatibility. Existing PCB layouts designed for the MX6SWT-H1-R250-000DB2 can accommodate the substitute without layout modification.

Q: What is the difference in optical output between these components?

A: Both components deliver 111lm nominal flux at their respective test conditions. The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000DB1 achieves higher luminous efficacy (112 lm/W) compared to the MX6SWT-H1-R250-000DB2 (93 lm/W), indicating improved energy efficiency at its operating point.

Q: Does the substitute meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both components share identical REACH status (REACH Unaffected) and ECCN classification (EAR99). The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000DB1 additionally carries RoHS compliance certification, which represents an improvement over the original specification.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for both components?

A: Both components are classified as MSL 2A with a 4-week floor life. Identical handling and storage protocols apply to both parts.

Q: Is the CRI (Color Rendering Index) specification available for the substitute?

A: The MX6AWT-A1-R250-000DB1 does not specify a CRI value in the provided data. The original MX6SWT-H1-R250-000DB2 specifies CRI 80. If color rendering performance is critical to the application, this parameter should be confirmed with the manufacturer before final design approval.
