The Bourns 3314G-1-502E is a popular 5kΩ SMD trimming potentiometer. Finding a direct drop-in replacement requires matching the 4mm square package, top-adjustment style, and key electrical parameters.

AI replacement insight

Package riskhigh

Candidates have different adjustment styles or are through-hole, requiring layout changes or verification.

Electrical risklow

Electrical parameters of suggested alternatives match or exceed the target's specifications.

Can it be replaced directly?

No direct, drop-in replacement is confirmed. The closest options have mechanical differences in adjustment style or package type.

Best replacement path

For existing PCBs, the 3314J-1-502E is the closest option if side-access is possible. For new designs, consider the higher-spec 3362P-1-502LF.

Main risk

Mechanical incompatibility due to different adjustment styles or package types.
