TSC6 6mm Ceramic Trimmer Capacitor – Discontinuation Notice and Alternative Evaluation

Product Discontinuation Notice

The 6mm ceramic trimmer capacitor TSC6 series has been discontinued since July 2017 due to raw material supply constraints. There is no direct replacement model within the same mechanical format.

Alternative Consideration

For ongoing designs or maintenance requirements, customers may evaluate the feasibility of replacing the discontinued TSC6 series with the 3mm SMD type TSC3S series, subject to application compatibility verification.

Applications

• RF tuning circuits
• Oscillator frequency adjustment
• Impedance matching networks
• Signal calibration circuits

Design Considerations

When considering migration from a 6mm through-hole trimmer to a 3mm SMD trimmer, engineers should verify capacitance adjustment range, mechanical footprint, tuning accessibility, and mounting method. PCB layout redesign may be required to accommodate surface-mount format. Electrical characteristics must be confirmed against the original application requirements.
