PVC6D202C01B00 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PVC6D202C01B00 is a 2 kOhms 0.5W through-hole trimmer potentiometer manufactured by Bourns Inc. in the PVC6 series. This component features ceramic resistive material, PC pin termination, and top adjustment capability with 1 turn operation. The part is classified as obsolete, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing production and maintenance applications requiring 2 kOhms 0.5W trimmer potentiometer functionality with identical electrical specifications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PVC6D202C01B00 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: resistance value (2 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 identified substitute parts meet these core electrical and mechanical requirements. Resistive material variation between ceramic (original) and cermet (substitutes) is permitted within this product category as both materials satisfy the specified electrical performance parameters. Physical dimensions may vary within the constraints of through-hole mounting compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts listed maintain active product status with current manufacturer support, providing supply chain continuity for applications currently using the obsolete PVC6D202C01B00. The 3362R-1-202LF and 3329H-1-202LF options from Bourns Inc. offer direct manufacturer continuity with sealed construction and active product lifecycle status. The 25PR2KLF from TT Electronics/BI provides a compact form factor comparable to the original part dimensions. The 72PMR2KLF and 72PR2KLF options accommodate applications with larger PCB footprint allowances. All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance or equivalent RoHS compliance status, ensuring regulatory alignment with the original component specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the PVC6D202C01B00 be directly replaced with any of these substitutes? A: Yes, all listed parts meet the core electrical specifications: 2 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. Physical dimensions vary; verify PCB layout compatibility before selection.

Q: What is the difference between ceramic and cermet resistive materials in these trimmer potentiometers? A: Both materials satisfy the specified electrical performance parameters for this application. Cermet material in the substitute parts provides sealed construction characteristics. Material selection does not affect the core electrical specifications of resistance, power rating, tolerance, or temperature coefficient.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these substitute parts? A: Yes. The 3362R-1-202LF, 3329H-1-202LF, and 25PR2KLF are supplied in tube packaging. The 72PMR2KLF and 72PR2KLF are supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging selection depends on procurement and assembly process requirements.

Q: Do all substitutes maintain the same compliance certifications as the original part? A: All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant or RoHS compliant. The 3362R-1-202LF, 3329H-1-202LF, 72PMR2KLF, and 72PR2KLF maintain ROHS3 compliance matching the original specification. The 25PR2KLF maintains RoHS compliance. All parts are REACH unaffected or REACH affected as specified by manufacturer.

Q: Which substitute offers the closest physical footprint to the original PVC6D202C01B00? A: The 25PR2KLF provides the closest dimensional match with a square 0.270" x 0.270" face (6.86mm x 6.86mm) compared to the original 0.272" x 0.272" face (6.90mm x 6.90mm). The 3362R-1-202LF offers a rectangular alternative at 0.275" x 0.260" (6.99mm x 6.60mm).
