Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

• Resistance value: 100 kOhms
• Power rating: 0.5W (1/2W)
• Tolerance: ±20%
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Number of turns: 1 turn

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

• Adjustment type: Top adjustment
• Resistive material: Cermet
• Mounting type: Through hole
• Termination style: PC pins

Regulatory Parameters (Must Match):

• REACH status: REACH Unaffected
• ECCN: EAR99

The Bourns PV32 series parts (PV32H104A01B00 and PV32P104A01B00) satisfy all electrical and mechanical requirements. Both are active products with RoHS3 compliance, providing improved regulatory status compared to the obsolete TE Connectivity part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both Bourns PV32 series alternatives (PV32H104A01B00 and PV32P104A01B00) provide direct electrical and mechanical equivalence to the obsolete TE Connectivity 1623853-5. Selection between the two Bourns options depends on application-specific requirements not differentiated by the provided parameters.

The transition to active Bourns components offers regulatory advantages through RoHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term supply chain viability and regulatory alignment. Both substitute parts maintain REACH Unaffected and EAR99 status, preserving export and compliance characteristics of the original component.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PV32H104A01B00 and PV32P104A01B00 be used interchangeably with 1623853-5?

A: Both Bourns parts satisfy all electrical and mechanical parameters specified for the TE Connectivity 1623853-5. Electrical performance, power rating, tolerance, temperature coefficient, and mechanical form factor are equivalent. Physical dimensions differ slightly (round 0.260" diameter for Bourns versus square 0.252" x 0.252" for TE Connectivity), requiring PCB layout verification for mechanical fit.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The TE Connectivity 1623853-5 is classified as obsolete. The Bourns alternatives are active products with current manufacturing support and improved regulatory compliance (RoHS3).

Q: Are there differences between PV32H104A01B00 and PV32P104A01B00?

A: Both parts share identical electrical specifications and mechanical parameters. The designation difference (H versus P) reflects internal Bourns product line differentiation. Selection should be based on application-specific requirements and availability.

Q: Do the substitute parts maintain the same regulatory status?

A: Yes. Both Bourns alternatives maintain REACH Unaffected and EAR99 status. Additionally, both are RoHS3 compliant, providing enhanced regulatory alignment compared to the original component.

Q: What physical dimension differences exist?

A: The TE Connectivity 1623853-5 features a square form factor (0.252" x 0.252" face, 6.40mm x 6.40mm). Both Bourns substitutes feature a round form factor (0.260" diameter, 6.60mm). PCB layout and mechanical clearance must be evaluated for compatibility.
