XPGWHT-01-0000-00EC2 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The XPGWHT-01-0000-00EC2 is a CreeLED XLamp® XP-G surface mount LED in neutral white 4500K color temperature. This active product delivers 118 lm at 350mA test current with a forward voltage of 2.9V typical and 125° viewing angle in a compact 1414 (3535 Metric) package. The part is RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected, suitable for general illumination applications requiring neutral white spectral output. Substitute parts are identified when electrical performance, thermal characteristics, and mechanical compatibility remain within specified tolerances while accommodating alternative color temperature requirements.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the XPGWHT-01-0000-00EC2 is determined by strict equivalence in the following critical parameters:

• Series and Manufacturer: Both parts belong to the CreeLED XLamp® XP-G family
• Package / Case: Identical 1414 (3535 Metric) surface mount package
• Mechanical Dimensions: Identical footprint (0.136" × 0.136") and height (0.084" max)
• Electrical Performance: Identical forward voltage (2.9V typical), test current (350mA), maximum current (1.5A), and lumens per watt (116 lm/W)
• Thermal Characteristics: Identical thermal resistance (4°C/W)
• Optical Properties: Identical viewing angle (125°) and CRI (70 typical)
• Compliance: Both RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected
• Product Status: Both active products

The only parameter that differs is correlated color temperature (CCT): the main part operates at 4500K (neutral white), while the substitute operates at 4000K (cool white). Both maintain identical luminous flux output (118 lm at 25°C, 350mA test current) within the same tolerance range (114–122 lm).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both XPGWHT-01-0000-00EC2 and XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE5 are active products from CreeLED with full RoHS compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts depends solely on application-specific color temperature requirements:

• XPGWHT-01-0000-00EC2 (4500K): Select for applications requiring neutral white spectral output in the 4500K range
• XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE5 (4000K): Select for applications requiring cool white spectral output in the 4000K range

Both parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable within the same PCB footprint and assembly process. No circuit modifications are required when substituting between these parts. Thermal management, current limiting, and forward voltage compensation remain identical. The choice between 4500K and 4000K is determined by the end application's color temperature specification and user preference for perceived light warmth.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE5 be used as a direct replacement for XPGWHT-01-0000-00EC2?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical characteristics (2.9V forward voltage, 350mA test current, 1.5A maximum), identical package dimensions (1414 / 3535 Metric), and identical thermal properties (4°C/W). The only difference is color temperature: 4500K versus 4000K. Direct PCB substitution is possible without circuit modifications.

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

A: Both are neutral to cool white light. 4500K (XPGWHT-01-0000-00EC2) produces slightly warmer neutral white light, while 4000K (XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE5) produces cooler white light. Both maintain identical luminous flux (118 lm) and efficiency (116 lm/W) at the specified test current.

Q: Are both parts available in the same packaging format?

A: Yes. Both XPGWHT-01-0000-00EC2 and XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE5 are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, suitable for automated assembly processes.

Q: Do these parts require different circuit designs or current limiting?

A: No. Both parts operate at identical forward voltage (2.9V typical) and maximum current (1.5A). Existing circuit designs, current limiting resistors, and thermal management strategies remain unchanged when substituting between these parts.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both XPGWHT-01-0000-00EC2 and XPGWHT-01-0000-00EE5 are RoHS compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting regulatory requirements for electronic component use in regulated markets.

Q: Can I mix these parts in the same assembly?

A: Yes, from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. However, mixing 4500K and 4000K LEDs in the same visual field may produce noticeable color temperature variation. Application design should determine whether uniform color temperature is required.
