Versatile 2 mm open potentiometers

8 September 2004 Passive Components Access Control & Identity Management

Murata's 2 mm open potentiometers have special features and are useful in pick-up modules, cellular phones, digital cameras and other tight spaces. With a 2,1 by 2,7 mm footprint, 1,0 mm or less in height, the PVZ2A series has a chip style construction and the PVZ2K has formed terminals for mounting in an aperture. Both have a two-part design that saves cost and a cross-shaped driver slot for in-process adjustment.

Special plating techniques provide good solderability and a unique resin substrate allows high peak temperature reflow soldering. Maximum resistance values are from 500 Ω to 1 MΩ ±30%, power rating is 0,1 W at 50°C and the TCR is ±500 ppm/°C. The effective rotational angle is 240°±10°.
