XPEWHT-P1-0000-006Z7 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The XPEWHT-P1-0000-006Z7 is a Cree XLamp® XP-E warm white LED with a correlated color temperature of 3000K, designed for surface mount applications in 1414 (3535 Metric) package format. This component is actively produced and widely used in general illumination and accent lighting applications. Identifying equivalent substitute parts is necessary when the primary part becomes unavailable, when alternative packaging formats are required, or when different color temperature specifications better suit application requirements while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the XPEWHT-P1-0000-006Z7 are determined by strict electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria. The following parameters must remain constant or within acceptable tolerances for a part to function as a direct substitute:

• Series: XLamp® XP-E
• Package / Case: 1414 (3535 Metric)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Forward Voltage (Vf): 3.05V
• Test Current: 350mA
• Maximum Current: 1A
• Viewing Angle: 115°
• Thermal Resistance: 9°C/W
• Size / Dimension: 0.136" L x 0.136" W (3.45mm x 3.45mm)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.084" (2.13mm)

The primary variable parameter that distinguishes substitute parts is the Correlated Color Temperature (CCT). Substitute parts within the XLamp® XP-E series maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical form factor while offering alternative color temperature options. This allows system designers to select warm white variants (2700K, 3000K, or other CCT values) based on application-specific lighting requirements without redesigning the circuit or modifying the PCB layout.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the XPEWHT-P1-0000-006Z7 and XPEWHT-P1-R250-006E8 are active products manufactured by CreeLED, Inc., with full RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts is based on application-specific color temperature requirements and packaging format availability.

The XPEWHT-P1-0000-006Z7 (3000K) is suitable for applications requiring neutral warm white illumination with moderate color temperature. The XPEWHT-P1-R250-006E8 (2700K) provides a warmer, more amber-tinted light output, appropriate for applications emphasizing warm ambiance or residential lighting aesthetics.

Packaging format differs between the two parts: the main part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while the substitute is available in Cut Tape (CT) format. This distinction affects procurement quantities and handling procedures but does not impact electrical or thermal performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can XPEWHT-P1-R250-006E8 be used as a direct replacement for XPEWHT-P1-0000-006Z7 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (3.05V forward voltage, 350mA test current, 1A maximum current), thermal characteristics (9°C/W), and mechanical form factor (1414 package, 3.45mm x 3.45mm footprint). The only difference is correlated color temperature: 3000K versus 2700K. No circuit modifications or PCB layout changes are required.

Q: What is the significance of the CCT difference between 3000K and 2700K?

A: Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) defines the perceived color of the light output. 3000K produces a neutral warm white appearance, while 2700K produces a warmer, more amber-tinted appearance. Both are classified as warm white LEDs. The selection depends on the desired lighting aesthetic and application requirements.

Q: Does the packaging format difference (Tape & Reel vs. Cut Tape) affect component performance?

A: No. Packaging format affects procurement, storage, and handling procedures but does not impact electrical performance, thermal characteristics, or optical output. Both formats contain identical LED components.

Q: Are both parts compliant with environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both XPEWHT-P1-0000-006Z7 and XPEWHT-P1-R250-006E8 are RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic components.

Q: What is the thermal resistance specification, and why is it important?

A: Both parts have a thermal resistance of 9°C/W, which defines the temperature rise of the LED junction relative to the ambient environment for each watt of power dissipated. This specification is critical for thermal management calculations and ensures reliable long-term operation within specified temperature ranges.
