Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts are grouped based on the following allowable parameter variations:

Color Temperature (CCT): The main part operates at 3250K. Substitutes at 3000K are acceptable as warm white alternatives within the same color family, representing a minor shift in correlated color temperature.

Series Compatibility: XLamp® XP-E and XLamp® XP-C series share identical mechanical footprints (1414/3535 Metric), identical viewing angles (115°), identical CRI (80 Typ), and identical flux output (77 lm @ 350mA). Series substitution is permitted based on these matching parameters.

Forward Voltage: The main part specifies 3.05V (XP-E). The XP-C substitute specifies 3.2V, a 0.15V difference within typical circuit design tolerance for warm white LEDs.

Maximum Current Rating: The main part supports 1A maximum; the XP-C substitute supports 500mA maximum. This represents a reduced current capability and must be evaluated against application requirements.

Thermal Resistance: The main part specifies 9°C/W; the XP-C substitute specifies 12°C/W. This represents reduced thermal performance and must be evaluated for thermal management requirements.

Packaging Format: The main part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR); one substitute is supplied in Cut Tape (CT). Both are surface mount compatible; packaging selection depends on assembly process requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain Active product status and full RoHS/REACH compliance, ensuring regulatory continuity in design implementations.

XPEWHT-L1-R250-008E7 provides direct electrical and thermal equivalence to the main part with identical forward voltage (3.05V), maximum current (1A), thermal resistance (9°C/W), and luminous efficacy (72 lm/W). The primary distinction is packaging format (Cut Tape vs. Tape & Reel), applicable when assembly processes require individual component handling rather than reel-based automation. Color temperature shifts to 3000K, representing a warmer tone within the warm white spectrum.

XPCWHT-L1-0000-008E7 introduces series-level substitution from XP-E to XP-C while maintaining identical mechanical footprint, viewing angle, CRI, and flux output. Forward voltage increases to 3.2V (0.15V higher), maximum current reduces to 500mA (50% lower), thermal resistance increases to 12°C/W (33% higher), and luminous efficacy decreases to 69 lm/W (4% lower). This substitute is suitable for applications where the reduced current rating and thermal characteristics align with circuit design parameters. Color temperature is 3000K.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can XPEWHT-L1-R250-008E7 be used as a direct replacement for XPEWHT-L1-0000-008F7?

A: Yes. Both parts are XLamp® XP-E devices with identical electrical specifications (3.05V, 1A max, 72 lm/W), identical thermal resistance (9°C/W), and identical mechanical dimensions. The difference is packaging format: Cut Tape (CT) versus Tape & Reel (TR). Color temperature differs at 3000K versus 3250K. Select based on assembly process requirements and acceptable color temperature range.

Q: What are the limitations of XPCWHT-L1-0000-008E7 as a substitute?

A: The XP-C series introduces three parameter changes: maximum current reduces from 1A to 500mA, thermal resistance increases from 9°C/W to 12°C/W, and luminous efficacy decreases from 72 lm/W to 69 lm/W. Applications requiring sustained operation above 500mA or demanding superior thermal performance should not use this substitute. Mechanical compatibility and flux output remain equivalent.

Q: Are all three parts mechanically interchangeable?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical 1414 (3535 Metric) package dimensions (3.45mm × 3.45mm footprint, 2.13mm maximum seated height), identical surface mount mounting type, and identical 115° viewing angle. PCB layout and reflow profiles remain unchanged.

Q: How does color temperature affect substitution?

A: The main part operates at 3250K; both substitutes operate at 3000K. Both are warm white LEDs within the same color family. The 250K difference represents a slightly warmer tone. Applications with strict color temperature requirements must evaluate this shift against specification limits.

Q: What packaging format should I select?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) is standard for high-volume automated assembly. Cut Tape (CT) is used for lower-volume production, manual assembly, or when individual component handling is required. Both formats are surface mount compatible; selection depends on manufacturing process.

Q: Are all parts RoHS and REACH compliant?

A: Yes. All three parts are RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected, ensuring regulatory compliance across all substitution options.
