Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The XPLAWT-00-0000-000BV40E3 qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on the following substitution criteria:

Mechanical Compatibility: Identical package type (1414 / 3535 Metric), mounting method (Surface Mount), physical dimensions (3.45mm x 3.45mm), and seated height (2.81mm) ensure direct PCB compatibility without layout modifications.

Electrical Compatibility: Both parts operate within the same current range (1.05A test current, 3A maximum), share identical viewing angle (125°), and maintain equivalent flux output at 85°C (450lm). Forward voltage differs by 0.13V (2.82V vs. 2.95V), which remains within acceptable circuit design tolerances for LED driver circuits.

Compliance & Status: Both parts are Active status, RoHS Compliant, and REACH Unaffected, meeting current regulatory requirements.

Key Differentiators: The primary distinction is color temperature (6500K vs. 5000K) and luminous efficacy (152 lm/W vs. 145 lm/W). These differences are application-dependent and do not affect mechanical or electrical substitutability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the XPLBWT-00-0000-000BV40CB and XPLAWT-00-0000-000BV40E3 are Active status components from CreeLED, Inc., with full RoHS Compliance and REACH Unaffected designation. Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific requirements:

Select XPLBWT-00-0000-000BV40CB when 6500K color temperature (cooler white) is required, or when maximum luminous efficacy (152 lm/W) and lower thermal resistance (2.2°C/W) are design priorities.

Select XPLAWT-00-0000-000BV40E3 when 5000K color temperature (neutral white) is specified, or when thermal management constraints allow for slightly higher thermal resistance (2.5°C/W).

Both parts maintain identical mechanical compatibility, electrical current ratings, and flux output, ensuring interchangeability at the PCB level. Forward voltage difference (0.13V) requires circuit driver verification to confirm acceptable operating range.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can XPLAWT-00-0000-000BV40E3 be used as a direct replacement for XPLBWT-00-0000-000BV40CB?

A: Yes, from a mechanical and electrical standpoint. Both parts use identical 1414 (3535 Metric) packaging, surface-mount configuration, and operate at 1.05A test current with 3A maximum rating. The 0.13V forward voltage difference must be evaluated within your specific LED driver circuit to confirm acceptable performance.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The main difference is color temperature: XPLBWT operates at 6500K (cooler white), while XPLAWT operates at 5000K (neutral white). This affects perceived light color but does not impact mechanical compatibility or electrical substitutability.

Q: Are both parts suitable for current production designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are Active status, RoHS Compliant, and REACH Unaffected, meeting current regulatory and compliance requirements for production use.

Q: Does the thermal resistance difference affect substitutability?

A: The thermal resistance difference (2.2°C/W vs. 2.5°C/W) is minor and does not prevent substitution. However, in thermally constrained applications, the XPLBWT with lower thermal resistance may be preferred for improved heat dissipation performance.

Q: Are there any package or mounting differences?

A: No. Both parts are identical in package type (1414 / 3535 Metric), physical dimensions (3.45mm x 3.45mm), seated height (2.81mm), and surface-mount configuration. No PCB layout modifications are required for substitution.
