Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts maintain the core optical and electrical specifications required for direct functional replacement: 5000K color temperature, 118 lm flux output at 350 mA, and 1414 (3535 Metric) surface mount package.

For designs requiring active product status and RoHS compliance: All substitute parts carry Active product status and RoHS Compliant certification, providing long-term supply assurance and regulatory compliance advantages over the obsolete XPEHEW-01-0000-00EE3.

For applications with forward voltage sensitivity: The XPEWHT series (3.05V Vf) provides closest electrical match to the original 3V specification. The XTEAWT and XPGWHT series operate at 2.9V, reducing forward voltage drop by approximately 0.1V.

For thermal-constrained applications: The XPGWHT series offers superior thermal performance at 4°C/W thermal resistance compared to the original 6°C/W, enabling higher sustained current operation and improved heat dissipation in compact designs.

For maximum current headroom: The XTEAWT and XPGWHT series support 1.5A maximum current versus 1A on the original and XPEWHT series, providing design margin for transient or pulsed operation.

For packaging continuity: All substitutes are supplied in Tape & Reel format, standard for automated assembly. The original XPEHEW-01-0000-00EE3 was supplied in bulk packaging.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can XPEWHT-01-0000-00EC1 and XPEWHT-01-R250-00EC1 be used interchangeably? A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The R250 designation indicates a 250-unit reel format; the base electrical and optical specifications are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between XPGWHT-01-0000-00EC1 and XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE3? A: Both parts are electrically and optically identical. The EE3 suffix indicates a different binning or date code variant. Electrical performance, thermal characteristics, and package dimensions are equivalent.

Q: Does the 2.9V forward voltage of XTEAWT and XPGWHT series require circuit redesign? A: The 0.1V reduction from the original 3V specification is within typical LED forward voltage tolerance and does not require circuit redesign for most constant-current driver applications. Verify driver compliance with the lower voltage if operating near minimum supply voltage limits.

Q: Are the XPGWHT series parts suitable for high-temperature applications? A: The XPGWHT series thermal resistance of 4°C/W is superior to the original 6°C/W, enabling better thermal performance. However, thermal management depends on PCB design, solder pad area, and ambient conditions. Consult thermal modeling for specific high-temperature requirements.

Q: What is the impact of the 125° viewing angle on XPGWHT versus the original 120°? A: The 5° increase in viewing angle provides slightly wider light distribution. For applications requiring precise beam control, optical simulation or prototype testing is recommended to confirm suitability.

Q: Are all substitute parts REACH compliant? A: Yes. All substitute parts carry REACH Unaffected status, matching the original part's regulatory compliance.

Q: Can I mix packaging formats (bulk vs. Tape & Reel) in production? A: No. The original XPEHEW-01-0000-00EE3 is supplied in bulk; all substitutes are Tape & Reel format. Confirm your assembly equipment compatibility with Tape & Reel packaging before design release.
