Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the XPEHEW-01-0000-00GC3 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Color and CCT (Correlated Color Temperature): Neutral white 4300K
• Flux Output: 135 lm (130–139 lm range) at 350mA test current and 25°C
• Forward Voltage: Nominal 3V or lower (2.85V–2.9V acceptable for circuit compatibility)
• Test Current: 350mA
• CRI (Color Rendering Index): 70 (Typ)
• Package / Case: 1414 (3535 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Viewing Angle: 115° or greater

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Direct Series Equivalent (XLamp® XT-E): The XTEAWT-00-0000-00000BGC3 provides identical optical output (135 lm at 350mA) and CCT (4300K) with a lower forward voltage (2.85V) and improved thermal resistance (5°C/W vs. 6°C/W). This part is active and RoHS compliant.

Parametric Equivalents (XLamp® XP-G Series): Multiple XP-G variants deliver the same 135 lm flux output at 350mA with 4300K, 4250K, or 4000K CCT options. These parts feature a forward voltage of 2.9V, superior thermal resistance (4°C/W), higher maximum current ratings (1.5A), and wider viewing angles (125°). All XP-G variants are active and RoHS compliant.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct 4300K Replacement with Improved Thermal Performance:

The XTEAWT-00-0000-00000BGC3 (XLamp® XT-E) is the primary substitute. It maintains identical flux output (135 lm at 350mA) and CCT (4300K) while reducing forward voltage to 2.85V and improving thermal resistance to 5°C/W. This part is active and RoHS compliant, making it suitable for new designs and production continuity.

For Enhanced Performance with Active Product Status:

The XPGWHT-01-0000-00GC3 and XPGWHT-01-R250-00GC3 (XLamp® XP-G, 4300K) deliver the same optical output with superior thermal characteristics (4°C/W), higher maximum current capability (1.5A), and wider viewing angle (125°). Both variants are active and RoHS compliant. The R250 variant indicates a 250mΩ resistor integration. These parts are preferred for applications requiring improved thermal management and future design flexibility.

For CCT Flexibility:

The XPGWHT-01-0000-00GE5 and XPGWHT-01-R250-00GE5 (4000K) provide a cooler color temperature option while maintaining identical flux output and superior thermal performance. The XPGWHT-01-0000-00GF5 and XPGWHT-01-R250-00GF5 (4250K) offer an intermediate CCT between the main part and the 4000K variants. All XP-G variants are active and RoHS compliant.

All substitute parts are REACH Unaffected and suitable for applications requiring compliance with environmental regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the XTEAWT-00-0000-00000BGC3 be used as a direct drop-in replacement for the XPEHEW-01-0000-00GC3?

A: Yes. Both parts deliver 135 lm at 350mA with 4300K CCT and 70 CRI in the same 1414 (3535 Metric) package. The XT-E variant has a lower forward voltage (2.85V vs. 3V) and better thermal resistance (5°C/W vs. 6°C/W), making it electrically and thermally compatible. Circuit designs must accommodate the 0.15V voltage difference.

Q: What are the advantages of XLamp® XP-G substitutes over the XT-E option?

A: XP-G variants offer superior thermal resistance (4°C/W vs. 5°C/W or 6°C/W), higher maximum current ratings (1.5A vs. 1A or 1.5A), and wider viewing angles (125° vs. 115° or 120°). These improvements provide better thermal management, design margin, and optical coverage for demanding applications.

Q: Are there CCT options available for substitution?

A: Yes. While the main part is 4300K, substitute XP-G parts are available in 4000K (XPGWHT-01-0000-00GE5), 4250K (XPGWHT-01-0000-00GF5), and 4300K (XPGWHT-01-0000-00GC3). All maintain identical flux output (135 lm at 350mA) and thermal performance. CCT selection depends on application lighting requirements.

Q: What is the difference between standard and R250 variants?

A: The R250 designation indicates integration of a 250mΩ resistor within the part. Both standard and R250 variants are electrically and optically equivalent. Selection depends on circuit design requirements and whether external resistor integration is preferred.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: The XTEAWT-00-0000-00000BGC3 and all XLamp® XP-G variants are RoHS compliant. The main part (XPEHEW-01-0000-00GC3) does not specify RoHS status. All parts are REACH Unaffected.

Q: What is the impact of the forward voltage difference on circuit design?

A: The main part operates at 3V (Typ), while substitutes operate at 2.85V (XT-E) or 2.9V (XP-G). This 0.1V–0.15V reduction requires circuit verification to ensure proper current regulation and LED operation within specified parameters. Most constant-current driver designs accommodate this variation without modification.

Q: Can the viewing angle difference affect application performance?

A: The main part has a 120° viewing angle, while XT-E has 115° and XP-G variants have 125°. The XP-G wider angle (125°) provides broader light distribution, while the XT-E narrower angle (115°) concentrates light more tightly. Application requirements determine whether this difference is significant.

Q: Why is the main part classified as obsolete?

A: The XPEHEW-01-0000-00GC3 is no longer in active production. The XLamp® XT-E and XP-G series provide superior performance characteristics and are actively manufactured, making them the recommended alternatives for new designs and production continuity.
