PVC6H104C01B00 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PVC6H104C01B00 is a 100 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, making equivalent substitutes necessary for ongoing production and maintenance applications. The part operates within a ±10% tolerance and ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient range, suitable for precision adjustment applications in electronic circuits.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PVC6H104C01B00 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters: resistance value (100 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 identified substitutes meet these core electrical and mechanical requirements. Variations in resistive material (ceramic to cermet), physical dimensions, and packaging do not affect functional compatibility within the specified parameter range. RoHS3 compliance is maintained across all substitutes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 3362X-1-104LF is the primary direct substitute, manufactured by Bourns Inc. with active product status and ROHS3 compliance. This part maintains identical electrical specifications and side adjustment configuration. The transition from ceramic to cermet resistive material does not affect functional performance within the specified parameter tolerances. Packaging is supplied in tube format with 3300 units in stock.

The 72XR100KLF is a secondary substitute manufactured by TT Electronics/BI with active product status and ROHS3 compliance. This part meets all core electrical and mechanical requirements. Physical dimensions differ (square 0.375" x 0.375" versus rectangular configurations), and packaging is supplied in bulk format with 996 units in stock. Cermet resistive material is used in this variant.

Both substitutes are suitable for applications requiring the specified 100 kOhms resistance, 0.5W power rating, and through-hole PC pin configuration. Selection between substitutes should account for available inventory, packaging requirements, and physical space constraints within the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3362X-1-104LF directly replace the PVC6H104C01B00?

A: Yes. The 3362X-1-104LF meets all core electrical parameters: 100 kOhms resistance, 0.5W power rating, ±10% tolerance, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, 1 turn, side adjustment, through-hole mounting, and PC pin termination. Both are ROHS3 compliant.

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

A: Both materials are used in precision trimmer potentiometers and meet the specified electrical parameters. Cermet (ceramic-metal composite) is used in the active substitute parts. The choice does not affect functional compatibility within the stated tolerance and temperature coefficient ranges.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between substitutes?

A: Yes. The PVC6H104C01B00 has a rectangular face of 0.315" x 0.272" (8.00mm x 6.90mm). The 3362X-1-104LF has a rectangular face of 0.275" x 0.260" (6.99mm x 6.60mm). The 72XR100KLF has a square face of 0.375" x 0.375" (9.53mm x 9.53mm). Verify PCB layout compatibility before selection.

Q: What packaging options are available?

A: The 3362X-1-104LF is supplied in tube packaging. The 72XR100KLF is supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging selection depends on production volume and handling requirements.

Q: Are all substitutes RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The PVC6H104C01B00, 3362X-1-104LF, and 72XR100KLF are all ROHS3 compliant.
