MX6SWT-H1-R250-000EB2 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MX6SWT-H1-R250-000EB2 is an XLamp® MX-6S white surface mount LED from CreeLED, Inc., designed for lighting applications requiring high luminous efficacy. This part operates at 20V forward voltage with a 60mA test current, delivering 118lm at 25°C with a 120° viewing angle. The product is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives necessary for ongoing design support and procurement continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MX6SWT-H1-R250-000EB2 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mechanical Compatibility: Package type (2-SMD, Gull Wing), physical dimensions (5.00mm x 5.00mm), and mounting height (1.48mm maximum) must match to ensure PCB assembly compatibility without design modification.

Electrical Compatibility: Forward voltage (Vf), test current, and maximum current ratings define circuit integration requirements. Substitutes must operate within the same voltage and current envelope to function in existing driver circuits.

Optical Performance: Color (white), viewing angle (120°), and luminous flux output determine functional equivalence in lighting applications.

Environmental & Regulatory Compliance: Moisture sensitivity level (MSL 2A), REACH status, and ECCN classification must align with supply chain and regulatory requirements.

The MX6AWT-H1-R250-000CB2 is identified as a substitute based on matching mechanical form factor, identical viewing angle, compatible package configuration, and equivalent color specification, despite differences in electrical operating parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MX6AWT-H1-R250-000CB2 is available as an active product from CreeLED, Inc., providing supply continuity for the obsolete MX6SWT-H1-R250-000EB2. Both parts share identical mechanical form factors, thermal characteristics, and regulatory compliance status (REACH Unaffected, ECCN EAR99).

The primary distinction lies in electrical operating parameters: the MX6AWT operates at 3.3V with 300mA test current, compared to the MX6SWT's 20V at 60mA. This difference requires driver circuit redesign and is not a direct pin-compatible substitution. The MX6AWT delivers 104lm at its rated current with superior luminous efficacy (105 lm/W versus 98 lm/W), though absolute flux output is slightly lower.

Selection of the MX6AWT-H1-R250-000CB2 is appropriate when circuit redesign is feasible and the lower voltage, higher current operating point aligns with system architecture. The active product status ensures long-term availability and supply chain stability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MX6AWT-H1-R250-000CB2 be used as a direct replacement without circuit modification?

A: No. The MX6AWT operates at 3.3V with 300mA test current, while the MX6SWT requires 20V at 60mA. Driver circuit redesign is necessary to accommodate the different voltage and current requirements.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts measure 5.00mm x 5.00mm with a maximum seated height of 1.48mm, enabling identical PCB footprints and assembly processes.

Q: What is the significance of the "Exposed Pad" designation in the MX6AWT package?

A: The exposed pad provides enhanced thermal dissipation and electrical connection. This is a package design improvement that does not affect mechanical compatibility or PCB layout requirements.

Q: Why is the MX6SWT classified as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence reflects CreeLED's product lifecycle management. The MX6AWT represents the active successor in the XLamp® MX series, offering improved efficiency and current availability.

Q: Are both parts compliant with environmental and export regulations?

A: Yes. Both parts carry REACH Unaffected status and ECCN EAR99 classification, meeting standard environmental and export compliance requirements.

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

A: Both parts are rated MSL 2A (4 Weeks), indicating they must be stored in controlled humidity environments and used within four weeks of package opening under standard conditions.
