Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the PVC6E105C01B00 is determined by electrical and mechanical parameter alignment. The critical parameters for substitution are: resistance value (1 MOhm), power rating (0.5W), tolerance (±10%), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), number of turns (1.0), adjustment type (side adjustment), mounting type (through hole), and termination style (PC pins).

The substitute parts 3362S-1-105LF and 3362W-1-105LF match all electrical specifications and mechanical requirements. Both are active products from Bourns Inc. with identical resistance, power rating, tolerance, temperature coefficient, turn count, adjustment mechanism, mounting configuration, and termination style. The primary difference is the resistive material composition: the PVC6E series uses ceramic material, while the 3362 series uses cermet material. Both materials satisfy the specified electrical parameters. The 3362 series parts feature slightly smaller physical dimensions (6.99mm x 6.60mm versus 8.00mm x 6.90mm) and are packaged in tubes with active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 3362S-1-105LF and 3362W-1-105LF are direct functional equivalents for the obsolete PVC6E105C01B00. Both substitute parts maintain identical electrical performance across all specified parameters: 1 MOhm resistance, 0.5W power rating, ±10% tolerance, and ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Both are ROHS3 compliant and carry active product status from Bourns Inc., ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

The transition from ceramic to cermet resistive material in the 3362 series does not affect compliance with the specified electrical parameters. Both substitute parts are available in higher inventory quantities (7400 and 5256 units respectively) compared to the obsolete PVC6E series (643 units).

Physical dimension differences between the PVC6E105C01B00 (8.00mm x 6.90mm) and the 3362 series (6.99mm x 6.60mm) must be evaluated for PCB layout compatibility. The smaller footprint of the 3362 series may require circuit board redesign if space constraints are critical.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3362S-1-105LF or 3362W-1-105LF directly replace the PVC6E105C01B00 in existing designs?

A: Both parts satisfy all specified electrical parameters: 1 MOhm resistance, 0.5W power rating, ±10% tolerance, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, 1.0 turn count, side adjustment, through-hole mounting, and PC pin termination. PCB layout compatibility must be confirmed due to physical dimension differences (8.00mm x 6.90mm versus 6.99mm x 6.60mm).

Q: What is the difference between the 3362S-1-105LF and 3362W-1-105LF?

A: Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The primary distinction is the base product number designation (3362S versus 3362W). Both are active products with identical specifications, inventory availability, and compliance certifications.

Q: Why is the resistive material different between the PVC6E and 3362 series?

A: The PVC6E105C01B00 uses ceramic resistive material, while the 3362 series uses cermet material. Both materials meet the specified electrical parameters for this application. Cermet material in the 3362 series provides enhanced stability and is standard in the active Trimpot 3362 product line.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: Both the PVC6E105C01B00 and the 3362 series substitutes are ROHS3 compliant. The 3362 series parts are REACH Affected, while the PVC6E is REACH Unaffected. Both carry EAR99 ECCN classification.

Q: What packaging is available for the substitute parts?

A: The 3362S-1-105LF and 3362W-1-105LF are supplied in tube packaging, differing from the PVC6E series packaging specification.
