Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the XMLAWT-02-0000-000PS50E7 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Color Temperature (CCT): 3000K warm white
• Package / Case: 2020 (5050 Metric) surface mount
• Mounting Type: Surface mount
• Viewing Angle: 125°
• CRI: 85 or higher
• Thermal Resistance: 2.5°C/W
• RoHS Compliance: Required

The XMLBWT-02-0000-000PS50E7 qualifies as a direct substitute. Both parts share identical package geometry, thermal characteristics, viewing angle, and compliance certifications. The substitute belongs to the XLamp® XM-L2 series (next generation) and maintains the same 3000K color temperature and 85 CRI specification. Electrical parameters remain within acceptable operating ranges for direct replacement in existing designs.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The XMLBWT-02-0000-000PS50E7 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete XMLAWT-02-0000-000PS50E7. Selection is supported by:

• Active Product Status: The substitute is in active production, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.
• Identical Package Geometry: Both parts use the 2020 (5050 Metric) surface mount package with matching footprint, height, and thermal characteristics, enabling direct PCB compatibility without layout modifications.
• Maintained Color Specification: Both parts deliver 3000K warm white with 85 CRI, preserving color temperature and rendering consistency in lighting applications.
• Improved Efficiency: The XLamp® XM-L2 substitute achieves 89 lm/W compared to 87 lm/W in the original part, representing a 2.3% efficiency gain at identical test current.
• Lower Forward Voltage: The substitute operates at 2.72V versus 2.9V, reducing power dissipation by approximately 6.2% at 700mA test current.
• Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the XMLBWT-02-0000-000PS50E7 be used as a direct replacement without PCB modifications?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical 2020 (5050 Metric) package dimensions, footprint, and height specifications. No PCB layout changes are required for substitution.

Q: Are the color temperature and CRI specifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts deliver 3000K warm white with 85 CRI. Color temperature and rendering characteristics remain unchanged.

Q: What is the difference in forward voltage between the two parts?

A: The main part operates at 2.9V typical, while the substitute operates at 2.72V typical. This 0.18V reduction represents improved efficiency in the XLamp® XM-L2 generation. Circuit designs must accommodate this lower voltage if current-limiting resistors or driver circuits are voltage-dependent.

Q: Is the thermal resistance the same?

A: Yes. Both parts have thermal resistance of 2.5°C/W, ensuring equivalent thermal management performance in the application.

Q: What is the flux output difference?

A: The main part specifies 177lm at 25°C and 700mA. The substitute specifies 177lm at 85°C and 700mA. Both deliver the same nominal flux at their respective test temperatures, with the substitute maintaining output at elevated operating temperature.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences?

A: No. Both parts are RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected. Regulatory status is equivalent.

Q: Why is the main part classified as obsolete?

A: The XMLAWT-02-0000-000PS50E7 (XLamp® XM-L) has been superseded by the XMLBWT-02-0000-000PS50E7 (XLamp® XM-L2) in CreeLED's product portfolio. The newer generation offers improved efficiency and active production status.
