XRCWHT-L1-0000-006AA Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The XRCWHT-L1-0000-006AA is a CreeLED XLamp® XR-C warm white LED (2700K) surface mount component designed for lighting applications. This part operates at 4.6V forward voltage with a 350mA test current, delivering 65 lumens at 25°C in a compact 3529 (9073 Metric) package. The product is currently obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for ongoing production, maintenance, and design updates. Substitute parts must maintain compatibility across electrical performance, thermal characteristics, and mechanical form factor.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by strict alignment across the following parameters:

  • Color and CCT: All substitute parts must be White, Warm 2700K to maintain color consistency in lighting output
  • Flux Output: Substitute parts must deliver 65 lumens at 25°C and 350mA test current (62–67 lm acceptable range)
  • Test Current: 350mA is the standard operating point for flux measurement and performance validation
  • Viewing Angle: 90° beam angle must be maintained for optical compatibility
  • Package / Case: 3529 (9073 Metric) form factor ensures mechanical and thermal interface compatibility
  • Mounting Type: Surface mount configuration required for PCB assembly compatibility
  • Physical Dimensions: 9.00mm × 7.00mm × 4.60mm maximum height ensures fit within design constraints
  • Compliance: RoHS compliance and MSL 4 rating required for manufacturing and storage compatibility

The three substitute parts listed below meet these criteria. Variations in forward voltage (3.3V vs. 4.6V), maximum current rating, thermal resistance, and product status are noted but do not disqualify substitution when electrical and optical performance parameters align.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts are manufactured by CreeLED, Inc. and maintain full RoHS compliance and MSL 4 rating, ensuring regulatory and manufacturing compatibility with the original XRCWHT-L1-0000-006AA.

XREWHT-L1-0000-006E8 is an active product with direct manufacturer support. It delivers identical flux output (65 lm) and test current (350mA) with improved thermal resistance (8°C/W vs. 12°C/W). Forward voltage is 3.3V, requiring circuit adjustment from the original 4.6V specification. CRI is specified at 80 (Typ), providing documented color rendering performance.

XREWHT-L1-0000-006AA is an active product with parametric equivalence to the main part. Flux output, test current, viewing angle, and package dimensions are identical. Forward voltage is 3.3V. Thermal resistance is improved at 8°C/W. This part is available in Tape & Reel packaging for automated assembly.

XREWHT-L1-R250-006AA is an active product with identical electrical and optical specifications to XREWHT-L1-0000-006AA. The part designation includes "R250," indicating a specific manufacturing or distribution variant. All performance parameters, compliance certifications, and thermal characteristics are equivalent.

Selection among these three substitutes should prioritize active product status and availability. Circuit design must accommodate the 3.3V forward voltage of all XR-E series substitutes, which differs from the original 4.6V specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can XREWHT-L1-0000-006E8, XREWHT-L1-0000-006AA, and XREWHT-L1-R250-006AA be used interchangeably with XRCWHT-L1-0000-006AA?

A: Yes, within the constraints of forward voltage adjustment. All three substitute parts deliver identical flux output (65 lm at 350mA), maintain the same 2700K color temperature, and use the identical 3529 (9073 Metric) package. However, the forward voltage is 3.3V for all substitutes versus 4.6V for the original part. Circuit design must be verified to accommodate this 0.2V difference in series resistance or current-limiting calculations.

Q: What is the significance of the thermal resistance difference (12°C/W vs. 8°C/W)?

A: The substitute parts have lower thermal resistance, meaning they dissipate heat more efficiently. This is a beneficial characteristic that improves thermal performance in the application. No design modification is required; the lower thermal resistance is a performance advantage.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging format?

A: The original XRCWHT-L1-0000-006AA packaging format is not specified in the data. All three substitute parts are available in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for automated surface mount assembly. Verify that your assembly process is compatible with Tape & Reel packaging.

Q: Does the CRI specification affect substitution?

A: XREWHT-L1-0000-006E8 specifies CRI at 80 (Typ), while the original part and other substitutes do not provide CRI data. If color rendering index is a critical application requirement, XREWHT-L1-0000-006E8 provides documented performance. For applications where CRI is not specified, all parts are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between XREWHT-L1-0000-006AA and XREWHT-L1-R250-006AA?

A: Both parts are electrically and optically identical with the same flux output, forward voltage, and thermal characteristics. The "R250" designation in XREWHT-L1-R250-006AA indicates a manufacturing or distribution variant. Selection between these two should be based on availability and supply chain considerations.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant and suitable for regulated applications?

A: Yes. All three substitute parts are RoHS Compliant with MSL 4 (72 Hours) rating, matching the original part's compliance profile. They are suitable for applications requiring regulatory compliance in electronics manufacturing.
