XPEWHT-01-0000-00BD2 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The XPEWHT-01-0000-00BD2 is an XLamp® XP-E White LED from CreeLED, Inc., designed for general illumination applications requiring neutral white light output. This surface-mount LED operates at 350mA nominal current with a forward voltage of 3.05V and delivers 97 lumens at 25°C. The component is actively produced and RoHS compliant, making it suitable for modern lighting designs. Substitute parts may be required due to inventory availability, regional sourcing constraints, or specific correlated color temperature (CCT) requirements within the XLamp® XP-E product family.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the XPEWHT-01-0000-00BD2 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Manufacturer & Series: Both parts must be CreeLED, Inc. XLamp® XP-E LEDs
• Package / Case: Both parts must use 1414 (3535 Metric) surface-mount package
• Mounting Type: Both parts must be surface-mount components
• Electrical Specifications: Forward voltage (3.05V), test current (350mA), and maximum current (1A) must be identical
• Mechanical Dimensions: Physical size (3.45mm x 3.45mm) and seated height (2.13mm) must match
• Thermal Characteristics: Thermal resistance (9°C/W) must be equivalent
• Compliance: Both parts must maintain RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status

The primary variable parameter allowing substitution is Correlated Color Temperature (CCT), which may differ between 4000K and 4500K within the neutral white category, provided all other electrical, mechanical, and thermal specifications remain constant.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the XPEWHT-01-0000-00BD2 and XPEWHT-L1-0000-00BE5 are active production components from CreeLED, Inc., with full RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts is based on the required correlated color temperature:

• XPEWHT-01-0000-00BD2 (4500K): Suitable for applications requiring neutral white light with a slightly cooler appearance
• XPEWHT-L1-0000-00BE5 (4000K): Suitable for applications requiring neutral white light with a slightly warmer appearance

Both parts share identical electrical performance (3.05V forward voltage, 350mA test current, 97 lumens at 25°C), mechanical dimensions (1414 package, 3.45mm x 3.45mm), and thermal characteristics (9°C/W). The choice between these substitutes depends solely on the lighting design's color temperature specification and does not affect circuit design, PCB layout, or thermal management requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can XPEWHT-L1-0000-00BE5 be used as a direct replacement for XPEWHT-01-0000-00BD2?

A: Yes, provided the application accepts a 4000K correlated color temperature instead of 4500K. All electrical, mechanical, and thermal specifications are identical. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between 4000K and 4500K color temperature?

A: Both are classified as neutral white. The 4000K variant produces light with a slightly warmer appearance, while 4500K produces light with a slightly cooler appearance. The difference is perceptible to the human eye but does not affect electrical performance or component compatibility.

Q: Are the package dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts use the 1414 (3535 Metric) surface-mount package with dimensions of 3.45mm x 3.45mm and a maximum seated height of 2.13mm. PCB footprints and assembly processes are identical.

Q: Do both parts have the same forward voltage and current ratings?

A: Yes. Both parts operate at 3.05V forward voltage with a 350mA test current and 1A maximum current rating. Power supply and current-limiting circuit designs remain unchanged.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both XPEWHT-01-0000-00BD2 and XPEWHT-L1-0000-00BE5 are RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting regulatory requirements for modern electronic applications.

Q: What is the thermal resistance of these LEDs?

A: Both parts have a thermal resistance of 9°C/W. Thermal management design and heat sink requirements are identical between the two parts.

Q: Can I mix these two part numbers in the same production batch?

A: Mixing is not recommended if color temperature consistency is critical to the application. While electrically and mechanically compatible, the 500K difference in CCT may result in visible color variation across the assembled product.
