Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed XLamp® XR-E substitutes maintain full mechanical and optical compatibility with the obsolete XRCWHT-L1-0000-008B4. Selection among the substitute parts is based on product availability and packaging requirements:

Primary Recommendation: XREWHT-L1-0000-008B4 (XLamp® XR-E equivalent) provides direct parametric equivalence with the main part. This variant is Active status, available in Tape & Reel packaging, and offers improved thermal performance (8°C/W vs. 12°C/W). The 0.2V reduction in forward voltage (3.3V vs. 4.6V) reduces power dissipation and improves efficiency to 67 lm/W.

Alternative Selections:

  • XREWHT-L1-0000-008A4: Specified for 4000K neutral white color temperature, suitable for applications requiring defined CCT.
  • XREWHT-L1-0000-008B1 through XREWHT-L1-0000-008B9: All variants maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection depends on inventory availability and specific color temperature requirements not explicitly defined in the main part specification.

All substitutes are RoHS Compliant, REACH Unaffected, and maintain MSL 4 (72 Hours) classification, ensuring compliance with environmental and regulatory requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can XREWHT-L1-0000-008B4 directly replace XRCWHT-L1-0000-008B4 on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. Both parts use identical 3529 (9073 Metric) surface mount packages with matching footprint dimensions (9.00mm × 7.00mm) and seated height (4.60mm). No PCB layout modifications are required.

Q: What is the impact of the 0.2V forward voltage difference?

A: The XR-E series operates at 3.3V versus 4.6V for the XR-C series. This reduces power dissipation by approximately 5.7% at 350mA test current. Circuit designs must accommodate this lower voltage requirement; existing current-limiting resistor values may require adjustment to maintain 350mA operation.

Q: Are all XR-E variants electrically interchangeable?

A: Yes, for the parameters specified. All XR-E variants (XREWHT-L1-0000-008B1 through XREWHT-L1-0000-008B9) share identical forward voltage (3.3V), test current (350mA), luminous flux (77lm), viewing angle (90°), and thermal resistance (8°C/W). Differences in part number suffixes reflect internal binning or color temperature variations not detailed in the provided specifications.

Q: Why is the thermal resistance lower in XR-E variants?

A: The XLamp® XR-E series incorporates improved thermal design, reducing junction-to-case thermal resistance from 12°C/W to 8°C/W. This enhancement allows better heat dissipation and supports higher ambient temperature operation.

Q: What is the significance of MSL 4 (72 Hours)?

A: Moisture Sensitivity Level 4 requires that components be stored in dry conditions and baked before reflow soldering if exposed to humidity for more than 72 hours. This applies uniformly to both the main part and all substitutes.

Q: Can I use XREWHT-L1-0000-008A4 if my application requires neutral white color?

A: XREWHT-L1-0000-008A4 is specified for 4000K neutral white color temperature. If your application requires this specific CCT, this variant is suitable. Other variants do not specify CCT in their documentation.

Q: Are there packaging differences between substitutes?

A: The main part (XRCWHT-L1-0000-008B4) is listed without explicit packaging specification. All XR-E substitutes are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. Confirm packaging requirements with your procurement process.
