PVC6G202C01B00 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PVC6G202C01B00 is a 2 kOhms, 0.5W through-hole trimmer potentiometer manufactured by Bourns Inc. with ceramic resistive material, side adjustment, and PC pin termination. This part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent alternatives that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility for circuit board applications requiring precision resistance adjustment.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by matching the following critical parameters: resistance value (2 kOhms), power rating (0.5W), tolerance (±10%), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), number of turns (1), adjustment type (side adjustment), mounting type (through hole), and termination style (PC pins). All substitute parts listed meet these electrical and mechanical requirements. Variations in resistive material (ceramic to cermet), physical dimensions, and packaging do not affect functional substitutability within the specified parameter constraints. Product status transition from obsolete to active alternatives ensures continued supply chain availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and maintain identical electrical specifications to the PVC6G202C01B00. The 3362W-1-202LF and 3329W-1-202LF are Bourns Inc. active products within the Trimpot® sealed series, providing direct manufacturer continuity. The 72XR2KLF from TT Electronics/BI and RJ-6X202 from Nidec Components Corporation are active alternatives from established component manufacturers. Selection between substitutes should be based on packaging requirements (tube versus bulk), physical footprint constraints, and supply chain availability. All parts satisfy compliance requirements for ROHS3 and EAR99 export classification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3362W-1-202LF directly replace the PVC6G202C01B00 in existing circuit boards? A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical parameters (2 kOhms, 0.5W, ±10% tolerance, ±100ppm/°C) and mechanical specifications (side adjustment, through-hole mounting, PC pin termination). Physical dimensions differ slightly (0.275" x 0.260" versus 0.315" x 0.272"), requiring verification of available board space.

Q: What is the difference between ceramic and cermet resistive materials in these trimmers? A: The PVC6G202C01B00 uses ceramic material, while substitute parts 3362W-1-202LF, 3329W-1-202LF, 72XR2KLF, and RJ-6X202 use cermet material. Both materials meet the specified electrical parameters and are functionally equivalent for this application.

Q: Are there packaging differences between substitute parts? A: Yes. The 3362W-1-202LF and 3329W-1-202LF are supplied in tube packaging, while 72XR2KLF and RJ-6X202 are supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging selection depends on procurement and assembly requirements.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same compliance standards? A: All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and classified as EAR99 for export purposes. The PVC6G202C01B00 is REACH unaffected, while 3362W-1-202LF and 3329W-1-202LF are REACH affected. RJ-6X202 and 72XR2KLF are REACH unaffected.

Q: What is the inventory status for these parts? A: PVC6G202C01B00 has 932 units in stock (obsolete status). Active alternatives include 3362W-1-202LF (3400 units), 3329W-1-202LF (1145 units), 72XR2KLF (1000 units), and RJ-6X202 (731 units).
