Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 3362W-1-105LF qualifies as a direct substitute for the PVC6G105C01B00 based on the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 1 MOhms (identical)
• Power rating: 0.5W, 1/2W (identical)
• Tolerance: ±10% (identical)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (identical)
• Number of turns: 1.0 (identical)
• Adjustment type: Side Adjustment (identical)
• Mounting type: Through Hole (identical)
• Termination style: PC Pins (identical)
• RoHS3 compliance: Both parts meet ROHS3 requirements

The primary difference is the resistive material composition: the PVC6G105C01B00 uses ceramic material, while the 3362W-1-105LF uses cermet material. Both materials are acceptable for this application category and do not prevent functional substitution when electrical parameters remain constant.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 3362W-1-105LF is the appropriate substitute for the obsolete PVC6G105C01B00. Selection is based on:

• Identical electrical specifications across all critical parameters
• Active product status with established supply chain availability
• ROHS3 compliance maintained for both parts
• Bourns Inc. manufacturer continuity
• Cermet resistive material provides equivalent performance characteristics within the specified tolerance and temperature coefficient ranges
• Slightly reduced physical dimensions (6.99mm x 6.60mm versus 8.00mm x 6.90mm) require PCB layout verification for through-hole mounting compatibility

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3362W-1-105LF directly replace the PVC6G105C01B00 in existing designs?

A: Yes, provided PCB hole spacing and layout accommodate the slightly smaller face dimensions of the 3362W-1-105LF (6.99mm x 6.60mm versus 8.00mm x 6.90mm). All electrical parameters are identical.

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) requirements. Cermet material in the 3362W-1-105LF offers improved long-term stability and is the current standard for Bourns trimmer potentiometers in this resistance and power rating category.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant. The 3362W-1-105LF is REACH Affected, while the PVC6G105C01B00 is REACH Unaffected. Verify REACH compliance requirements for your specific application and end market.

Q: What packaging is available for the 3362W-1-105LF?

A: The 3362W-1-105LF is supplied in tube packaging, compared to the standard packaging of the obsolete PVC6G105C01B00.
