Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the PVC6G102A01B00 are qualified based on the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

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

All identified substitutes meet these core parameters. Variations in resistive material (ceramic to cermet), physical dimensions, and product status are noted but do not prevent functional substitution within the specified electrical envelope.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 3362W-1-102LF is the primary substitute for the PVC6G102A01B00. Both parts are manufactured by Bourns Inc., ensuring design continuity. The 3362W-1-102LF is active in production, ROHS3 compliant, and REACH affected. The resistive material change from ceramic to cermet does not affect electrical performance within the specified tolerance and temperature coefficient parameters.

The 72XR1KLF and RJ-6X102 are secondary substitutes from alternative manufacturers. Both are active, ROHS3 compliant, and meet all electrical specifications. Physical dimensions vary across all substitutes; PCB layout verification is required during design transition.

For new designs or procurement requiring RoHS compliance and active product status, the 3362W-1-102LF is the recommended selection. For applications where alternative manufacturer sourcing is required, the 72XR1KLF and RJ-6X102 provide equivalent electrical performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3362W-1-102LF directly replace the PVC6G102A01B00?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications: 1 kOhms resistance, 0.5W power rating, ±10% tolerance, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, 1 turn, side adjustment, through-hole mounting, and PC pin termination. The change from ceramic to cermet resistive material does not affect performance within these parameters.

Q: What is the difference between ceramic and cermet resistive materials in this application?

A: Both materials meet the specified tolerance (±10%) and temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C). Cermet materials typically offer improved stability and reliability in production environments. The electrical performance is equivalent for the specified parameters.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between substitutes?

A: Yes. The PVC6G102A01B00 has a rectangular face of 0.315" x 0.272" (8.00mm x 6.90mm). The 3362W-1-102LF is 0.275" x 0.260" (6.99mm x 6.60mm), the 72XR1KLF is 0.375" x 0.375" (9.53mm x 9.53mm), and the RJ-6X102 is 0.276" x 0.260" (7.00mm x 6.60mm). PCB layout and mechanical clearance must be verified during substitution.

Q: Which substitute offers the best compliance profile?

A: All three substitutes are ROHS3 compliant and active in production. The 3362W-1-102LF is REACH affected, while the 72XR1KLF and RJ-6X102 are REACH unaffected. Selection depends on supply chain and regulatory requirements.

Q: Can I use the 72XR1KLF or RJ-6X102 if the 3362W-1-102LF is unavailable?

A: Yes. Both parts meet all electrical specifications and are active products. Verify physical dimensions and packaging requirements for your application before procurement.
