Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by the following criteria:

Optical Compatibility: Color (White, Warm), CCT (3000K), and flux output (77 lm at 350mA) must be identical.

Electrical Compatibility: Forward voltage, test current, and maximum current ratings must support the application circuit without modification.

Mechanical Compatibility: Package type (1414 / 3535 Metric), mounting type (Surface Mount), and physical dimensions must match PCB footprints.

Packaging Format: Tape & Reel (TR) and Cut Tape (CT) are both acceptable for component procurement; selection depends on assembly process requirements.

Thermal Performance: Thermal resistance must be within acceptable limits for the thermal management design.

Compliance: RoHS and REACH status must meet regulatory requirements.

The following parts meet these criteria for XPEWHT-L1-0000-008E7:

• XPEWHT-L1-R250-008E7: Same XLamp® XP-E series, identical optical and electrical specifications, Cut Tape packaging alternative.
• XPCWHT-L1-0000-008E7: XLamp® XP-C series variant with identical optical output and color, forward voltage tolerance variation (3.2V vs. 3.05V), reduced maximum current rating (500mA vs. 1A), and higher thermal resistance (12°C/W vs. 9°C/W).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

XPEWHT-L1-R250-008E7 is a direct substitute for XPEWHT-L1-0000-008E7 when Cut Tape packaging is required instead of Tape & Reel. All electrical, optical, and thermal parameters are identical. Selection between packaging formats depends on assembly process capability and component handling requirements.

XPCWHT-L1-0000-008E7 is a parametric equivalent suitable for applications where the following conditions are met:

• Forward voltage tolerance of 3.2V (vs. 3.05V) is acceptable within the circuit design.
• Maximum current requirement does not exceed 500mA; applications requiring currents above 500mA must use XPEWHT series.
• Thermal resistance of 12°C/W (vs. 9°C/W) is compatible with the thermal management design.
• Lumens/Watt efficiency reduction from 72 lm/W to 69 lm/W is acceptable for the application.

All three parts maintain identical optical output (77 lm at 350mA), color temperature (3000K), CRI (80), and viewing angle (115°), ensuring consistent visual performance. All parts are RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting regulatory requirements for general illumination applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can XPCWHT-L1-0000-008E7 replace XPEWHT-L1-0000-008E7 in any application?

A: XPCWHT-L1-0000-008E7 is a parametric equivalent, not a direct replacement. The forward voltage difference (3.2V vs. 3.05V) and reduced maximum current rating (500mA vs. 1A) require circuit verification. Applications operating at currents above 500mA must use XPEWHT series. Thermal design must accommodate the higher thermal resistance (12°C/W vs. 9°C/W).

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape packaging?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is supplied on continuous carrier tape wound on a reel, suitable for high-volume automated assembly. Cut Tape (CT) packaging is supplied as individual segments cut from the carrier tape, suitable for lower-volume assembly or manual handling. Both formats contain identical components; selection depends on assembly equipment and process requirements.

Q: Are all three parts electrically interchangeable at 350mA test current?

A: At 350mA test current, all three parts deliver identical flux output (77 lm) and color temperature (3000K). However, XPCWHT-L1-0000-008E7 operates at 3.2V forward voltage compared to 3.05V for XPEWHT parts. Circuit design must accommodate this voltage difference. For applications requiring operation above 500mA, only XPEWHT series is suitable.

Q: Does the thermal resistance difference affect component selection?

A: Thermal resistance affects junction temperature rise under load. XPCWHT-L1-0000-008E7 has higher thermal resistance (12°C/W vs. 9°C/W), resulting in higher junction temperature at the same power dissipation. Thermal design analysis is required to confirm acceptability for the specific application environment and heat management strategy.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. XPEWHT-L1-0000-008E7, XPEWHT-L1-R250-008E7, and XPCWHT-L1-0000-008E7 are all RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting regulatory requirements for general illumination applications.
