Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the PVC6Q202C01B00 are qualified based on matching the following critical parameters: 2 kOhms resistance, 0.5W power rating, ±10% tolerance, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, 1-turn adjustment, side adjustment type, through-hole mounting, and PC pin termination. All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 export classification. Differences in resistive material (ceramic versus cermet), physical dimensions, and product status are noted but do not prevent functional substitution when electrical specifications align.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 3362M-1-202LF is the primary substitute, manufactured by Bourns Inc. with active product status and ROHS3 compliance. This part maintains identical electrical specifications and is available in sealed Trimpot® 3362 series packaging.

The 3329W-1-202LF provides an alternative from Bourns Inc. with active status and sealed Trimpot® 3329 series design, suitable for applications requiring different physical dimensions.

The 72XR2KLF from TT Electronics/BI offers active availability with identical electrical parameters and ROHS3 compliance, with square-format physical dimensions.

The RJ-6X202 from Nidec Components Corporation is an active alternative with matching electrical specifications, ROHS3 compliance, and compact rectangular dimensions.

All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry EAR99 export classification, matching the regulatory status of the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3362M-1-202LF directly replace the PVC6Q202C01B00? A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications: 2 kOhms resistance, 0.5W power rating, ±10% tolerance, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, 1-turn side adjustment, through-hole mounting, and PC pin termination. The 3362M-1-202LF uses cermet material instead of ceramic, but this does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between ceramic and cermet resistive materials in these trimmers? A: Both materials meet the specified electrical parameters. Cermet (ceramic-metal composite) is used in the active substitute parts and provides sealed construction in the Trimpot® series.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between these parts? A: Yes. The PVC6Q202C01B00 has a rectangular face of 0.315" x 0.272" (8.00mm x 6.90mm). The 3362M-1-202LF measures 0.275" x 0.260" (6.99mm x 6.60mm), the 3329W-1-202LF measures 0.260" x 0.330" (6.60mm x 8.38mm), the 72XR2KLF measures 0.375" x 0.375" (9.53mm x 9.53mm), and the RJ-6X202 measures 0.276" x 0.260" (7.00mm x 6.60mm). Verify PCB layout compatibility before selection.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet RoHS requirements? A: Yes. All listed substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant, matching the original part's regulatory status.

Q: Which substitute has the best availability? A: The 3362M-1-202LF has 1207 units in stock, the 3329W-1-202LF has 1145 units, the 72XR2KLF has 1000 units, and the RJ-6X202 has 731 units available.
