Bourns TC33X
TC33X variants from Bourns
TC33X Overview
What changes between part numbers, and what to check before you lock the BOM — Passive Components.
TC33X is a Bourns order-code family — not a single orderable MPN. This page lists 14 variants that share the same core device but differ in suffix fields (package, grade, reel/tube, electrical bin, etc.). Pick the exact full part number; substituting within the family without checking the datasheet often causes assembly or spec mismatches.
Source Manufacturer: Bourns Inc. | Source: Winsource Other listed variants describe: TRIMMER 10K OHM 0.1W J LEAD TOP; TRIMMER 100 OHM 0.1W J LEAD TOP.
Suffix examples in this family: 2-104E, 2-501E, 1-103E, 2-101E, 2-102E, 2-103E, 2-105E, 2-201E. The characters after the base number usually encode package, temperature, or performance grade — compare the variant table column-by-column rather than assuming pin-compatible drops-in.
Example MPNs: TC33X-2-104E, TC33X-2-501E, TC33X-1-103E, TC33X-2-101E, TC33X-2-102E, TC33X-2-103E.
Key Features
- Lifecycle mix: ActiveConfirm lifecycle on the exact MPN, not just the base number prefix.
- 14 distinct suffix patternsExamples: 2-104E, 2-501E, 1-103E, 2-101E, 2-102E (+9 more). Decode suffix meaning in the ordering notes under the variant table.
Target Applications
- Passive Components — design-in and field replacement
- BOM scrub where only the base prefix is known but suffix is TBD
- Second-source checks when the original MPN is constrained

Ordering Code Differences
How suffixes on TC33X map to package, grade, and reel options.
TC33X uses a shared prefix; characters after the prefix encode orderable options. Two lines with the same prefix are not drop-in replacements unless the differing columns match your need.
Suffixes seen here: 2-104E, 2-501E, 1-103E, 2-101E, 2-102E, 2-103E, 2-105E, 2-201E, 2-202E, 2-203E (+4 more).
Full MPN examples: TC33X-2-104E, TC33X-2-501E, TC33X-1-103E, TC33X-2-101E, TC33X-2-102E.
Tip: photograph or copy the reel label — reel diameter, QTY per reel, and moisture sensitivity level (MSL) are often suffix-driven and won't show in the schematic.
How to Choose the Right TC33X Passive Components
Match the footprint first
Pull the exact package drawing for your MPN — base-number swaps fail most often at the footprint, not the schematic.
Electrical headroom
Compare voltage and current columns in the variant table. For TC33X, a suffix with lower voltage or current rating will not survive the same circuit without recalculation.
Temp grade letter matters
Commercial (0–70 °C) and industrial (−40–85 °C+) suffixes look similar in the prefix — confirm ambient + self-heating, not just the first page of the datasheet.
Copy the full MPN
Do not BOM only "TC33X" — include the full suffix (e.g. 2-104E, 2-501E, 1-103E). RFQ with reel/tube preference and required date code.
