XMLBWT-00-0000-000HT20E8 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The XMLBWT-00-0000-000HT20E8 is a CreeLED XLamp® XM-L2 warm white LED (2700K) in 2020 (5050 Metric) surface mount package. This component is classified as Active product status and is RoHS Compliant. The part delivers 210 lm at 85°C under 700mA test current with a forward voltage of 2.72V and 105 lm/W efficiency. Substitute parts may be required due to inventory constraints, regional availability, or specific application requirements where alternative electrical or thermal characteristics are acceptable within design tolerances.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the XMLBWT-00-0000-000HT20E8 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Package / Case: 2020 (5050 Metric) — physical footprint compatibility
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount — assembly process compatibility
• Size / Dimension: 0.197" L × 0.197" W (5.00 mm × 5.00 mm) — PCB layout fit
• Height - Seated (Max): Physical clearance requirement
• Electrical Characteristics: Forward voltage (Vf), test current, and maximum current ratings
• Compliance: RoHS and REACH status for regulatory requirements

The substitute parts PSL0102WBEB1 and PSL0102WBEC1 (ROHM Semiconductor) share the identical 2020 (5050 Metric) package and surface mount configuration. However, these substitutes differ in color temperature (5000K Cool White vs. 2700K Warm White), electrical operating parameters, and product status (Obsolete). Substitution is valid only when application requirements permit deviation from the original warm white color temperature and when the electrical differences are accommodated in circuit design.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

XMLBWT-00-0000-000HT20E8 is the primary selection for new designs. This part maintains Active product status, ensuring long-term availability and manufacturing support. It is RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements.

PSL0102WBEB1 and PSL0102WBEC1 are classified as Obsolete products. Both substitute parts are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, satisfying regulatory compliance. However, obsolete status indicates discontinued manufacturing and limited future availability. These substitutes are electrically and mechanically incompatible with the main part in several critical aspects:

• Color temperature differs (5000K Cool White vs. 2700K Warm White)
• Forward voltage is higher (3.3V vs. 2.72V)
• Test current is significantly lower (120 mA vs. 700 mA)
• Maximum current rating is lower (200 mA vs. 3A)
• Package height is substantially lower (0.039" vs. 0.124")

Substitution with PSL0102WBEB1 or PSL0102WBEC1 requires circuit redesign to accommodate the higher forward voltage, lower current capacity, and different thermal characteristics. The reduced height may affect optical performance and thermal management in applications designed for the original part's 3.15 mm height.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PSL0102WBEB1 or PSL0102WBEC1 be used as direct drop-in replacements for XMLBWT-00-0000-000HT20E8?

A: No. While both substitute parts share the 2020 (5050 Metric) package footprint and surface mount configuration, they are not direct replacements. The substitutes have different color temperatures (5000K vs. 2700K), higher forward voltage (3.3V vs. 2.72V), lower maximum current (200 mA vs. 3A), and significantly lower package height (0.039" vs. 0.124"). Circuit modifications are required.

Q: What are the key differences in electrical characteristics?

A: The XMLBWT operates at 2.72V forward voltage with a 700 mA test current and 3A maximum current rating. The PSL0102 substitutes operate at 3.3V forward voltage with a 120 mA test current and 200 mA maximum current rating. These differences require recalculation of current-limiting resistors and power supply specifications.

Q: Why are the substitute parts listed as Obsolete?

A: PSL0102WBEB1 and PSL0102WBEC1 are discontinued products from ROHM Semiconductor. Obsolete status means manufacturing has ended and inventory is limited. New designs should use the Active XMLBWT-00-0000-000HT20E8 to ensure long-term component availability.

Q: Are there thermal management differences?

A: Yes. The XMLBWT has a thermal resistance of 2.5°C/W. The PSL0102 substitutes do not provide thermal resistance specifications. The XMLBWT's greater package height (3.15 mm vs. 1.00 mm) may provide better thermal coupling to PCB copper areas in designs with thermal vias.

Q: Do the substitute parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Both substitute parts are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements. The main part is RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected. All three parts satisfy environmental and hazardous substance restrictions.

Q: What is the impact of color temperature difference?

A: The XMLBWT provides 2700K warm white light, suitable for applications requiring warm color rendering. The PSL0102 substitutes provide 5000K cool white light, which appears significantly cooler and bluer. This difference is not adjustable and affects the visual appearance of the final application.

Q: Can I use PSL0102WBEC1 instead of PSL0102WBEB1?

A: Both PSL0102 variants share identical electrical and package specifications. PSL0102WBEC1 has a higher CRI (90 vs. 80) and lower lumens/watt efficiency (75 vs. 95 lm/W). Selection between these two depends on whether color rendering accuracy or luminous efficiency is prioritized in the application.
