Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the 416PA201M is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The following parameters must match identically for a component to serve as a direct substitute:

• Resistance value: 200 Ohms
• Power rating: 0.2W (1/5W)
• Tolerance: ±25%
• Temperature coefficient: ±250ppm/°C
• Number of turns: 1
• Adjustment type: Top Adjustment
• Resistive material: Cermet
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Termination style: PC Pins
• Physical dimensions: Rectangular - 0.319" x 0.268" Face (8.10mm x 6.80mm)
• Regulatory compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The 3306F-1-201 manufactured by Bourns Inc. meets all specified parameters and qualifies as a direct equivalent substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 3306F-1-201 (Bourns Inc. Trimpot® 3306 - Open Frame series) is a direct functional equivalent to the obsolete 416PA201M. All electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and regulatory compliance requirements are identical.

The primary advantage of selecting the 3306F-1-201 is its active product status. The 416PA201M is classified as obsolete, which restricts availability and future supply chain reliability. The Bourns component maintains current manufacturing status and is available in higher inventory quantities (2504 pcs vs. 726 pcs), ensuring sustained procurement capability.

Both components carry ROHS3 compliance and identical moisture sensitivity ratings, confirming environmental and handling compatibility. The ECCN and HTSUS classifications are identical, indicating no change in regulatory or trade classification requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3306F-1-201 be used as a direct replacement for the 416PA201M in existing designs?

A: Yes. The 3306F-1-201 meets all electrical and mechanical specifications of the 416PA201M. Identical resistance, power rating, tolerance, temperature coefficient, adjustment type, resistive material, mounting configuration, termination style, and physical dimensions confirm direct substitution compatibility.

Q: Are there any differences in physical footprint or mounting between these components?

A: No. Both components share identical rectangular dimensions of 0.319" x 0.268" face (8.10mm x 6.80mm) and use PC pin through-hole termination. PCB layout and mounting hole patterns are compatible.

Q: What is the significance of the product status difference (Obsolete vs. Active)?

A: The 416PA201M is obsolete, indicating discontinued manufacturing and limited future availability. The 3306F-1-201 is active, ensuring ongoing production, supply chain stability, and long-term procurement reliability. For new designs or production continuity, the active component is the preferred selection.

Q: Do both components meet the same environmental and regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both components are ROHS3 compliant, carry identical moisture sensitivity level ratings (MSL 1 - Unlimited), and share the same ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS classifications. No additional compliance verification is required when substituting.

Q: Are there any performance differences in temperature stability or tolerance between these components?

A: No. Both components specify identical temperature coefficient (±250ppm/°C) and tolerance (±25%), confirming equivalent performance across the operating temperature range.
