Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the PVC6G100C01B00 is determined by matching the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 10 Ohms
• Power rating: 0.5W (1/2W)
• Tolerance: ±10%
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Number of turns: 1.0
• Adjustment type: Side Adjustment
• Mounting type: Through Hole
• Termination style: PC Pins

The substitute parts listed below satisfy all electrical and mechanical requirements. Physical dimensions vary within acceptable tolerance for PCB layout compatibility. Resistive material differs (ceramic vs. cermet) but maintains equivalent electrical performance within specified parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

3362W-1-100LF is the primary substitute for PVC6G100C01B00. This part maintains active product status, achieves ROHS3 compliance, and is available in production quantities. The Trimpot® 3362 series uses cermet resistive material, which provides equivalent electrical performance within the specified tolerance and temperature coefficient range. Dimensions are slightly smaller than the original part, requiring PCB layout verification for clearance compatibility.

3386X-1-100 is an alternative substitute meeting all electrical specifications. The Trimpot® 3386 series offers a larger square footprint (0.375" x 0.375") compared to the rectangular geometry of the original part. This part does not achieve ROHS3 compliance and is subject to REACH regulations. Selection of this part requires confirmation that RoHS non-compliance is acceptable for the application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 3362W-1-100LF directly replace PVC6G100C01B00 without circuit modification?

A: Yes. Both parts meet identical electrical specifications: 10 Ohms, 0.5W, ±10% tolerance, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, 1.0 turn side adjustment, and PC pin termination. PCB layout must accommodate the slightly smaller rectangular footprint (6.99mm x 6.60mm vs. 8.00mm x 6.90mm).

Q: What is the difference between ceramic and cermet resistive materials in these trimmers?

A: Both materials meet the specified electrical parameters for this application. Cermet (ceramic-metal composite) used in the 3362W and 3386X series provides equivalent resistance, tolerance, and temperature stability as the ceramic material in the original PVC6G part.

Q: Is 3386X-1-100 suitable for RoHS-regulated applications?

A: No. The 3386X-1-100 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications requiring RoHS3 compliance, use 3362W-1-100LF instead.

Q: How do physical dimensions affect substitution?

A: All three parts use identical PC pin termination and through-hole mounting. Face dimensions vary: PVC6G (8.00mm x 6.90mm rectangular), 3362W (6.99mm x 6.60mm rectangular), and 3386X (9.53mm x 9.53mm square). PCB layout must verify clearance and mounting hole compatibility for the selected substitute.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for these substitutes?

A: 3362W-1-100LF has 1073 pieces in stock. 3386X-1-100 has 800 pieces in stock. Both are active products with ongoing availability.
