Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the XPCWHT-L1-0000-00EE5 is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• Color: White, Neutral (4000K CCT)
• Package / Case: 1414 (3535 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Flux @ 25°C, 350mA Test Current: 118 lm (114–122 lm range)
• CRI: 70 (Typ)

Secondary Compatibility Parameters:

• Forward Voltage (Vf): 2.9–3.0V range acceptable
• Test Current: 350mA
• Viewing Angle: 120–125° range acceptable
• Thermal Resistance: ≤8°C/W

The XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE5 (XLamp® XP-G series) qualifies as a parametric equivalent because it maintains identical color temperature, package footprint, flux output at test current, and CRI rating. Minor variations in forward voltage (2.9V vs. 3.0V) and viewing angle (125° vs. 120°) remain within acceptable substitution tolerances for neutral white LED applications. The XP-G variant offers improved thermal performance (4°C/W vs. 8°C/W) and higher maximum current rating (1.5A vs. 500mA).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

XPCWHT-L1-0000-00EE5 (Primary Selection): Select this part when the design specifies XLamp® XP-C series performance, 3.0V forward voltage operation, or when thermal resistance of 8°C/W meets application requirements. This part maintains Active product status with 1070 units in new original inventory, ensuring supply availability.

XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE5 (Substitute Selection): Select this part as a direct substitute when component availability is constrained or when improved thermal performance (4°C/W) is beneficial. The XLamp® XP-G variant delivers identical flux output and color characteristics at test current while supporting higher maximum current (1.5A). Both parts are Active products from CreeLED, Inc., with RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected status on the substitute part. The 0.1V forward voltage difference (2.9V vs. 3.0V) is within standard circuit design tolerance for LED driver circuits.

Both parts share identical package footprint (1414/3535 Metric), mounting type (Surface Mount), and optical characteristics (4000K CCT, 70 CRI, 118 lm @ 350mA), ensuring direct PCB compatibility and interchangeability in neutral white LED applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE5 replace XPCWHT-L1-0000-00EE5 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in package footprint (1414/3535 Metric), color temperature (4000K), flux output (118 lm @ 350mA test current), and CRI (70). The forward voltage difference of 0.1V (2.9V vs. 3.0V) is within standard LED driver circuit tolerance. PCB layout and solder reflow profiles remain unchanged.

Q: What is the difference between XLamp® XP-C and XLamp® XP-G series?

A: The primary differences are thermal resistance (8°C/W vs. 4°C/W) and maximum current rating (500mA vs. 1.5A). At the 350mA test current specified for both parts, optical performance (flux, color temperature, CRI) is identical. The XP-G variant offers superior thermal management for high-power or thermally constrained applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: The main part (XPCWHT-L1-0000-00EE5) compliance status is not specified in the provided data. The substitute part (XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE5) is RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected. Verify compliance requirements with your procurement or quality department before final selection.

Q: What is the viewing angle difference between these parts?

A: The main part has a 120° viewing angle; the substitute has a 125° viewing angle. This 5° difference is negligible for most general illumination applications and does not affect optical system design or performance in standard LED fixture configurations.

Q: Can I operate the substitute part at higher currents than the main part?

A: Yes. The XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE5 supports maximum current of 1.5A, compared to 500mA for the XPCWHT-L1-0000-00EE5. However, operation at currents above 350mA (the specified test current) will increase flux output and thermal dissipation. Verify thermal management and circuit design for any current above the 350mA test specification.

Q: Are the parts available in the same packaging format?

A: Yes. Both parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. The XPCWHT-L1-0000-00EE5 has 1070 units in stock; the XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE5 has 1623 units in stock.
