XMLAWT-00-0000-000LS60Z8 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The XMLAWT-00-0000-000LS60Z8 is a CreeLED XLamp® XM-L warm white LED (2700K) in 2020 (5050 Metric) surface mount package. This part is classified as obsolete, making equivalent and substitute parts necessary for ongoing design support and procurement. The part delivers 191 lumens at 700mA test current with a forward voltage of 2.9V and 94 lm/W efficiency. Warm white 2700K color temperature applications requiring this specific performance envelope require careful substitute selection based on electrical compatibility and photometric characteristics.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the XMLAWT-00-0000-000LS60Z8 is determined by the following criteria:

Direct Manufacturer Substitute (Preferred):

• XMLBWT-00-0000-000LS60Z8 (CreeLED XLamp® XM-L2): Same manufacturer, same color temperature (2700K), same package (2020/5050 Metric), same test current (700mA), same maximum current (3A), same viewing angle (125°), and same thermal resistance (2.5°C/W). This represents a direct product line evolution from XM-L to XM-L2 generation with improved efficiency and lower forward voltage.

Similar Manufacturer Substitutes (Conditional):

• PSL0102WBEB1 and PSL0102WBEC1 (ROHM Semiconductor PSL0102): These parts share the same package (2020/5050 Metric), same mounting type (Surface Mount), same RoHS compliance status, and same HTSUS classification. However, they differ significantly in color temperature (5000K Cool White vs. 2700K Warm White), test current (120mA vs. 700mA), forward voltage (3.3V vs. 2.9V), and flux output (30–38 lm vs. 191 lm). These are not direct functional equivalents and require circuit redesign for application compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Recommended): The XMLBWT-00-0000-000LS60Z8 is the primary substitute for the obsolete XMLAWT-00-0000-000LS60Z8. Both parts are manufactured by CreeLED, maintain identical electrical specifications at the 700mA test current, and share the same package footprint and thermal characteristics. The XMLBWT represents an active product with improved efficiency (96 lm/W vs. 94 lm/W) and slightly lower forward voltage (2.72V vs. 2.9V), resulting in reduced power dissipation. No circuit modifications are required for this substitution. RoHS compliance and moisture sensitivity levels are equivalent.

For Alternative Applications (Conditional): The PSL0102WBEB1 and PSL0102WBEC1 parts from ROHM Semiconductor are not direct functional equivalents due to fundamental differences in color temperature, operating current, and flux output. These parts are suitable only for applications where cool white (5000K) color temperature is acceptable and where lower luminous output (30–38 lm) meets design requirements. Circuit redesign is necessary, including current limiting adjustments for the 120mA operating point. Both ROHM parts are obsolete and should not be selected for new designs requiring long-term availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use XMLBWT-00-0000-000LS60Z8 as a direct drop-in replacement for XMLAWT-00-0000-000LS60Z8?

A: Yes. Both parts operate at 700mA test current, share identical 2700K color temperature, use the same 2020 (5050 Metric) package, and have matching thermal resistance (2.5°C/W). The XMLBWT has slightly lower forward voltage (2.72V vs. 2.9V) and higher efficiency (96 vs. 94 lm/W), making it a superior substitute with no circuit modifications required.

Q: Why are PSL0102WBEB1 and PSL0102WBEC1 listed as substitutes if they have different color temperatures?

A: These parts are listed as similar manufacturer substitutes based on shared package geometry (2020/5050 Metric), mounting type, and compliance certifications. However, they are not direct functional equivalents. The 5000K cool white color temperature differs from the 2700K warm white specification, and the 120mA operating current is significantly lower than the 700mA requirement. These parts are suitable only for applications where color temperature and current requirements can be modified.

Q: What is the impact of forward voltage differences between XMLAWT and XMLBWT?

A: The XMLBWT forward voltage is 0.18V lower (2.72V vs. 2.9V). In series-connected LED strings, this reduces total voltage drop and power dissipation. For current-limited applications using constant current drivers, this difference has minimal impact on circuit performance. Verify that your current limiting circuit can accommodate the lower voltage without affecting regulation.

Q: Are there moisture sensitivity differences I should consider?

A: The XMLAWT and XMLBWT both have MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. The PSL0102 parts have MSL 3 (168 Hours), requiring controlled storage and handling within 168 hours of package opening. For high-volume manufacturing or extended storage, the CreeLED parts offer superior moisture tolerance.

Q: Can I use PSL0102 parts in a warm white application?

A: No. The PSL0102 series is specified for 5000K cool white color temperature only. Using these parts in a warm white (2700K) application will produce incorrect color output. If your application requires warm white output, use XMLBWT-00-0000-000LS60Z8 or equivalent warm white parts from other manufacturers.

Q: What are the packaging differences between these parts?

A: XMLAWT is supplied in standard packaging (unspecified), while XMLBWT is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR). PSL0102 parts are supplied in Cut Tape (CT). For automated assembly, verify that your pick-and-place equipment is compatible with the selected packaging format. All three part types use identical 2020 (5050 Metric) surface mount packages with compatible PCB footprints.
