PVC6A102C01B00 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PVC6A102C01B00 is a 1 kOhms, 0.5W through-hole trimmer potentiometer manufactured by Bourns Inc. with ceramic resistive material, top adjustment, and PC pin termination. This part is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitute parts necessary for ongoing production and maintenance applications. Active alternatives with identical electrical specifications are available from both Bourns Inc. and TT Electronics/BI manufacturers.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by matching the following critical parameters: resistance value (1 kOhms), power rating (0.5W), tolerance (±10%), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), number of turns (1), adjustment type (top adjustment), mounting type (through hole), and termination style (PC pins). All substitute parts listed meet these core electrical and mechanical requirements. Variations in resistive material (ceramic versus cermet), physical dimensions, and packaging format do not affect functional equivalence within the specified parameter set.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts are active products with current manufacturing status, providing supply continuity for the obsolete PVC6A102C01B00. The 3362P-1-102LF and 3329H-1-102LF from Bourns Inc. maintain manufacturer continuity and are ROHS3 compliant. The 25PR1KLF from TT Electronics/BI offers RoHS compliance with square form factor matching the original part dimensions. The 72PR1KLF and 72PMR1KLF from TT Electronics/BI are ROHS3 compliant alternatives with larger square form factors and bulk packaging availability. Selection should prioritize active product status and compliance certifications applicable to the target application environment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What makes these parts functionally equivalent to the PVC6A102C01B00? A: All substitute parts match the critical electrical parameters: 1 kOhms resistance, 0.5W power rating, ±10% tolerance, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, 1-turn adjustment, top adjustment type, through-hole mounting, and PC pin termination.

Q: Does the difference between ceramic and cermet resistive material affect substitution? A: No. Both ceramic and cermet materials meet the specified electrical parameters for this application. The resistive material type does not determine functional equivalence within the defined parameter set.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between the main part and substitutes? A: Yes. The PVC6A102C01B00 has a square face of 0.272" x 0.272" (6.90mm x 6.90mm). The 3362P-1-102LF is rectangular at 0.275" x 0.260" (6.99mm x 6.60mm), the 3329H-1-102LF is round at 0.250" diameter (6.35mm), the 25PR1KLF is square at 0.270" x 0.270" (6.86mm x 6.86mm), and the 72-series parts are square at 0.375" x 0.375" (9.53mm x 9.53mm). Physical fit must be verified for the specific PCB layout.

Q: What is the difference between tube and bulk packaging? A: Tube packaging (3362P-1-102LF, 3329H-1-102LF, 25PR1KLF) is standard for component distribution. Bulk packaging (72PR1KLF, 72PMR1KLF) is used for high-volume manufacturing. Packaging format does not affect electrical performance.

Q: Which substitute offers the closest dimensional match to the original part? A: The 25PR1KLF provides the closest dimensional match with a square face of 0.270" x 0.270" (6.86mm x 6.86mm), compared to the original 0.272" x 0.272" (6.90mm x 6.90mm).

Q: Are all substitutes RoHS compliant? A: Yes. The PVC6A102C01B00 is ROHS3 compliant. All substitutes are either RoHS compliant or ROHS3 compliant, meeting environmental regulatory requirements.
