• Tolerance: ±10%
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Number of turns: 12
• Adjustment type: Side Adjustment
• Resistive material: Cermet
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Termination style: PC Pins

The TT Electronics/BI 64XR200KLF meets all electrical and functional specifications. Minor dimensional variations in the rectangular face size do not affect electrical performance or standard PCB footprint compatibility for this component category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 3262P-1-204LF and 64XR200KLF are active production components with full RoHS compliance. The 3262P-1-204LF carries ROHS3 Compliant status and is REACH Affected. The 64XR200KLF is RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected, offering regulatory flexibility for applications with REACH-sensitive supply chain requirements. Selection between these parts should be based on regulatory compliance needs, inventory availability, and dimensional constraints specific to the PCB layout. Both parts share identical electrical specifications and functional performance characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 64XR200KLF replace the 3262P-1-204LF in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications: 200 kOhms resistance, 0.25W power rating, ±10% tolerance, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, 12-turn side adjustment, cermet material, through-hole mounting, and PC pin termination. The minor difference in face dimension (0.185" vs 0.165" height) does not affect standard PCB footprint compatibility for this component category.

Q: What are the key differences between these substitute parts?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer (Bourns vs TT Electronics/BI), series designation (Trimpot® 3262 vs 64), face height dimension (6.70mm vs 4.19mm), and regulatory status. The 3262P-1-204LF is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Affected, while the 64XR200KLF is RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected.

Q: Are there inventory considerations when selecting between these parts?

A: The 3262P-1-204LF has 1099 units in stock, while the 64XR200KLF has 1762 units available. Inventory levels should be evaluated against project lead time and volume requirements.

Q: Do these parts have different moisture sensitivity levels?

A: The 3262P-1-204LF has MSL Not Applicable. The 64XR200KLF has MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage and handling.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same temperature range applications?

A: Both parts share the same temperature coefficient specification of ±100ppm/°C, indicating equivalent thermal performance characteristics for temperature-dependent applications.
