Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the PVG5H100A01R00 is determined by the following critical parameters: resistance value (10 Ohms), power rating (0.25W), tolerance (±10%), resistive material (cermet), mounting type (surface mount), termination style (J lead), and adjustment type (side adjustment). The number of turns and temperature coefficient may vary within acceptable limits for equivalent functionality. Face dimensions must remain compatible with existing PCB layouts.

The three identified substitutes meet these core criteria:

• PVG5H100C03R00: Identical series (PVG5H), resistance, power rating, tolerance, adjustment type, and dimensions. Temperature coefficient differs (±150ppm/°C vs. ±200ppm/°C). Active product status.

• PVG5A100C03R00: Same series base (PVG5), resistance, power rating, and tolerance. Adjustment type differs (top adjustment vs. side adjustment). Temperature coefficient ±150ppm/°C. Active product status.

• 3224J-1-100E: Bourns Trimpot® 3224 sealed series. Matches resistance, power rating, tolerance, and termination style. Temperature coefficient ±100ppm/°C. Number of turns 12 vs. 11. Slightly smaller face dimension (0.181" x 0.138"). Active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: PVG5H100C03R00

This part provides the closest functional equivalence to the PVG5H100A01R00. It maintains identical series designation, resistance, power rating, tolerance, number of turns, adjustment type, and physical dimensions. The temperature coefficient is improved (±150ppm/°C vs. ±200ppm/°C), and the part holds active product status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

Secondary Substitute: PVG5A100C03R00

This part is suitable where top adjustment is acceptable in place of side adjustment. It shares the same base series (PVG5), resistance, power rating, tolerance, and number of turns. The face height differs slightly (0.138" vs. 0.146"), which may require PCB layout verification. Active product status and full compliance certifications apply.

Alternative Substitute: 3224J-1-100E

The Trimpot® 3224 sealed series offers enhanced environmental protection through sealed construction. It matches all critical electrical parameters and termination style. The 12-turn configuration provides finer adjustment resolution compared to the 11-turn original. Face dimensions are smaller (0.181" x 0.138"), requiring PCB footprint compatibility assessment. Active product status and full compliance certifications apply.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PVG5H100C03R00 be used as a direct replacement for PVG5H100A01R00?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (10 Ohms, 0.25W, ±10% tolerance), adjustment type (side), number of turns (11), and physical dimensions (0.189" x 0.146"). The improved temperature coefficient (±150ppm/°C) of the substitute is a performance enhancement. Active product status ensures ongoing availability.

Q: What is the key difference between PVG5H100C03R00 and PVG5A100C03R00?

A: The primary difference is adjustment type. PVG5H100C03R00 features side adjustment, while PVG5A100C03R00 features top adjustment. This affects operator access and PCB layout considerations. The PVG5A variant also has a slightly reduced face height (0.138" vs. 0.146").

Q: Is 3224J-1-100E suitable for applications requiring 11 turns?

A: The 3224J-1-100E provides 12 turns instead of 11. This offers finer adjustment resolution but may affect tuning range and sensitivity in applications with specific turn-count requirements. The smaller face dimensions (0.181" x 0.138" vs. 0.189" x 0.146") require PCB footprint verification.

Q: Are all substitutes RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All three substitute parts carry ROHS3 compliance certification, matching the original PVG5H100A01R00.

Q: What is the packaging format for substitute parts?

A: All substitute parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, suitable for automated assembly processes.

Q: Do the substitutes have the same moisture sensitivity rating?

A: Yes. All parts, including the original and substitutes, carry Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints.
