High-Rel Wirewound Specification MIL-R-39015 RTR Styles

This specification has a procedure for ordering, processing, and
marking parts entirely different than the other three 
specifications. IT DOES NOT USE THE TYPE DESIGNATION
NUMBER AS THE PART NUMBER.

THE NUMBER TO ORDER BY CONSISTS OF:

1.

The individual specification sheet number

M39015/2 (FOR STYLE RTR22)

M39015/3 (FOR STYLE RTR24)

2.

A dash number from the specification sheet table for the 
resistance value

EXAMPLES OF PART NUMBERS

M39015/2 — 006LM

5K Term. Type L — Failure Rate M

M39015/3 — 010XM

10K Term. Type X — Failure Rate M

The table on the next page shows all part numbers covered by
this specification, the conversion to the RTR type designation
number required by the supplier to manufacture the part, and
the number that will be marked on the units you receive (same
as part number ordered but with the letter "J" in front of it). The
letter "J" is a government mark and it is certification that the
parts comply with the specification.

HOW TO USE THIS SECTION

This Applications/Processing Guide is intended to provide

you with points to consider for designing circuits, selecting 
trimmers and arranging board layouts, to achieve maximum 
performance and long life for your circuits and systems. We
have also included information on steps your manufacturing
engineers can take to preserve circuit reliability.

For example, are you aware that the trimmers and other

mechanical components on your boards may face a more
extreme environment during boardwashing on your own produc-
tion line, than they ever will in use? For those trimmers that may
need to be reset, are you remembering to select and mount the
trimmers to provide easy accessibility?

In this section, you'll find dozens of pointers, reminders 

and useful facts that will help you be more knowledgeable and
successful in using trimmers.

TRIMMER BASICS

In its most common form, a trimmer is simply a device 

containing a resistive element, and a wiper, or adjustable tap,
contacting the element. The wiper can be mechanically moved
to vary the amount of voltage or resistance in the circuit. The
resistive element is usually laid out in linear or a circular 
configuration:

The Resistive Element

Trimmers for commercial applications typically have a 

resistive element made of carbon or cermet (a combination of
CERamic and METal), or of resistance wire wound on an insulat-
ed copper mandrel.

The main advantages of wirewound trimmers are their low

temperature coefficient, higher power dissipation, lower noise,
tighter resistance tolerance, and, when used as a variable resis-
tor, the excellent current-carrying capacity through the wiper due
to the lower contact resistance. Also, their long-term resistance
stability with time and temperature is slightly better than cermet.

Cermet trimmers provide a wider resistance range (10 ohms

to 5 megohms, versus a maximum of 50K ohms for wirewound).
Also, the wiper output can be set closer to the desired value
since the resistive element presents a continuous contact 
surface for the wiper, as opposed to the discrete turns (resolu-
tion) of the wirewound. Other advantages with cermet are the
lower reactance in high-frequency applications, the smaller sizes
available, and the generally lower price than wirewound types.

This application note is designed to provide step-by-step

processing recommendations. It covers the popular SMC 
soldering processes currently in use and provides recommenda-
tions and cautions for each step. Since many variations of 
temperature, time, processes, cleaning agents and board types
are found in the electronics industry, you’ll want to test and 
verify your own system.

The process steps, recommendations and cautions are

based on Bourns Trimpot surveys of SMC users, equipment
manufacturers and materials suppliers. Also, comments 
reflect results of Bourns’ testing. Our findings suggest the 
following soldering and cleaning processes:

1. SOLDERING - Forced Hot Air, Convection, IR, Vapor Phase 

(In-Line), Wave (Single and Dual)

2. CLEANING - Solvent, Aqueous, Semi-Aqueous, No-Clean

On the facing page are the common methods, materials and 
maximum temperature/time parameters for soldering and 
cleaning processes.

GENERAL

Use the optimum
solder paste for the
pattern, printing
process, solder paste
density and solder
joint quality.

RECOMMENDED

Use Sn 63% Pb 37%
solder paste. Use 8 to
10 mil thickness for
solder paste print.

CAUTION

Since solder paste
usually contains a high
percentage of activators,
you must ensure
adequate cleaning to
remove all residues,
unless no-clean (low
solids) paste is used.

TRIMMING POTENTIOMETERS AND DEFINITIONS

The following terms and definitions have been edited from the

Industrial Standard published by the Variable Resistive Components
Institute. It is intended to encourage standardization in communica-
tion and understanding between the manufacturer and user. The
complete standard, including detailed test procedures, is available
upon request.

GENERAL TERMS

TRIMMING POTENTIOMETER: An electrical mechanical device with

three terminals. Two terminals are connected to the ends of a
resistive element and one terminal is connected to a movable
conductive contact which slides over the element, thus allowing
the input voltage to be divided as a function of the mechanical
input. It can function as either a voltage divider or rheostat.

WIREWOUND TRIMMING POTENTIOMETER: A trimming poten-

tiometer characterized by a resistance element made up of
turns of wire on which the wiper contacts only a small portion of
each turn.

NON-WIREWOUND TRIMMING POTENTIOMETER: A trimming

potentiometer characterized by the continuous nature of the
surface area of the resistance element to be contacted. Contact
is maintained over a continuous, unbroken path. The resistance
is achieved by using material compositions other than wire such
as carbon, conductive plastics, metal film and cermet.

RESISTANCE ELEMENT: A continuous, unbroken length of resistive

material without joints, bonds or welds except at the junction of
the element and the electrical terminals connected to each end
of the element, or at an intermediate point such as a center tap.

ADJUSTMENT SHAFT: The mechanical input member of a trimming

potentiometer which when actuated causes the wiper to 
traverse the resistance element resulting in a change in output
voltage or resistance.

SINGLE-TURN ADJUSTMENT: Requires 360º or less mechanical

input to cause the wiper to traverse the total resistance element.

MULTITURN ADJUSTMENT: Requires more than 360º mechanical

adjustment to cause the wiper to traverse the total resistance
element.

TERMINAL: An external member that provides electrical access to

the resistance element and wiper.

LEADWIRE TYPE TERMINAL: Flexible insulated conductor.

PRINTED CIRCUIT TERMINAL:  Rigid uninsulated electrical conduc-

tor, suitable for printed circuit board plug-in.

SOLDER LUG TERMINAL: Rigid uninsulated electrical conductor,

suitable for external lead attachment.

WIPER: The wiper is the member in contact with the resistive ele-

ment that allows the output to be varied when the adjustment
shaft is rotated.

STOP-CLUTCH: A device which allows the wiper to idle at the ends

of the resistive element without damage as the adjustment shaft
continues to be actuated in the same direction.

STOP – SOLID: A positive limit to mechanical and/or electrical

adjustment.

STACKING: The mounting of one trimming potentiometer adjacent to

or on top of another utilizing the same mounting hardware.

THEORETICAL RESOLUTION: (Wirewound only) The theoretical

measurement of sensitivity to which the output ratio may be
adjusted; the reciprocal of the number of turns of wire in resis-
tance winding expressed as a percentage.

N = Total number of resistance wire turns.

1
N  X 100 = Theoretical resolution percent.

INPUT AND OUTPUT TERMS

TOTAL APPLIED VOLTAGE: The total voltage applied between the

designated input terminals.

OUTPUT VOLTAGE: The voltage between the wiper terminal and the

designated reference point. Unless otherwise specified, the
designated reference point is the CCW terminal.

OUTPUT RATIO: The ratio of the output voltage to the designated

input reference voltage. Unless otherwise specified, the refer-
ence voltage is the total applied voltage.

LOAD RESISTANCE: An external resistance as seen by the Output

Voltage (connected between the wiper terminal and the desig-
nated reference point.)

ADJUSTMENT TERMS

DIRECTION OF TRAVEL: Clockwise (CW) or counterclockwise

(CCW) rotation when viewing the adjustment end of the poten-
tiometer.

MECHANICAL TRAVEL — SOLID STOPS: The total travel of the

adjustment shaft between integral stops. Continuity must be
maintained throughout the travel.

MECHANICAL TRAVEL — CLUTCHING ACTION: The total travel of

the adjustment shaft between the points where clutch actuation
begins. Continuity must be maintained throughout the travel
and during clutch actuation.

MECHANICAL TRAVEL — CONTINUOUS ROTATION: The total 

travel of the adjustment shaft when the wiper movement is
unrestricted at either end of the resistive element as the adjust-
ment shaft continues to be actuated.

ADJUSTMENT TRAVEL (ELECTRICAL): The total travel of the adjust-

ment shaft between minimum and maximum output voltages.

CONTINUITY TRAVEL: The total travel of the shaft over which elec-

trical continuity is maintained between the wiper and the resis-
tance element.

ELECTRICAL AND OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS

TOTAL RESISTANCE: The DC resistance between the input termi-

nals with the wiper positioned to either end stop, or in dead
band for continuous rotation potentiometers.

between the wiper terminal and each end terminal with the
wiper positioned to give a minimum value.

END RESISTANCE: The resistance measured between the wiper ter-

minal and an end terminal when the wiper is positioned at the
corresponding end of mechanical travel. Absolute minimum
resistance and end resistance are synonymous for continuous
rotation trimmers.

CONTACT RESISTANCE VARIATION: The apparent resistance seen

between the wiper and the resistance element when the wiper
is energized with a specified current and moved over the
adjustment travel in either direction at a constant speed. The
output variations are measured over a specified frequency
bandwidth, exclusive of the effects due to roll-on or roll-off of
the terminations and is expressed in ohms or % of total resis-
tance.

EQUIVALENT NOISE RESISTANCE: Wirewound only. Any spurious

variation in the electrical output not present in the input, defined
quantitatively in terms of an equivalent parasitic, transient resis-
tance in ohms, appearing between the contact and the resistant
element when the shaft is rotated. The equivalent Noise
Resistance is defined independently of the resolution, function-
al characteristics and the total travel. The magnitude of the
Equivalent Noise Resistance is the maximum departure from a
specific reference line. The wiper of the potentiometer is
required to be excited by a specific current and moved at a
specific speed.

Forced Hot Air Convection System — Uses a multizone forced
air convection system with heat source panels using IR or other
type heating elements. Approximately 85% of the heating is
provided by free convection to reflow solder on exposed PC
boards.

Dual Wave System — Utilizes two parallel solder waves. The
first is a turbulent wave followed by a laminar wave. The turbu-
lent wave is for small, constricted areas, while the laminar wave
removes solder projections.

Vapor Phase System — Provides a single-zone condensation
heat source achieved with liquid fluorinated hydrocarbons that
have been brought to the boiling point to create a saturated
vapor zone. Heat is then released by the fluid’s heat of vapor-
ization as the vapor condenses on the product.

Soldering (Through-hole)

Two types of equipment are usually associated with through-
hole soldering:

Single Wave System — Provides an inclined portion of the 
solder wave for the PC board to pass over. The PC board is
positioned to bring many potential solder joints in contact with
the wave simultaneously for a short time for soldering.

Drag System — Provides for PC boards to be dragged across
the surface of the solder pot. Soldered connections are made
during this operation.

PC Board Washing

Two types of equipment are usually associated with both SMT
and through-hole products.

Pressure System — Accomplishes cleaning by directing sprays
of water under high pressure from multiple nozzles.

Flooding System — Utilizes a combination of flooding (at 
normal water pressure) and surfactant action for cleaning).

Soldering and Wash Processes

Figure 1 shows typical profiles any component may see during
a soldering and board washing operation. For details of materi-
al and process variables recommendations, see “Soldering and
Cleaning Processes”, page 76.

ADJUSTABILITY (OUTPUT VOLTAGE RATIO):   The precision with

which the output voltage ratio of a device can be set to the
desired value.

MECHANICAL TERMS

STARTING TORQUE: The maximum moment in the clockwise and

counterclockwise directions required to initiate shaft adjust-
ment anywhere in the mechanical travel.

STOP TORQUE: The maximum static moment that can be applied

to adjustment shaft at each mechanical stop for a specified
period of time without loss of continuity or mechanical damage
affecting operational characteristics.

SOLDERABILITY: The ability of the terminals to accept a uniform

coating of solder under specified conditions.

WELDABILITY: The ability of materials to be welded together under

specified conditions.

TERMINAL STRENGTH: The ability of the terminals to withstand

specified mechanical stresses without sustaining damage that
would affect utility of the terminals or operation of the trimming
potentiometer.

IMMERSION SEALED: The ability of the unit to withstand submer-

sion in acceptable cleaning solutions used in normal soldering
processes without performance degradation under specified
environmental conditions.

TRIMMER "ABILITIES"

When you are selecting components for a new design, you 

typically take into account the environmental conditions that the
components will need to endure during the lifetime of the instrument
or device. Designers in the past have often overlooked the environ-
mental extremes of their own production lines, where the conditions
may be much more severe than anything encountered in actual end
use.

PROCESSABILITY

"Processability" refers to the ability of the unit to withstand the

production-line processes associated with the finishing steps on the
PC boards. Typically, both SMT and through-hole products are sub-
jected to similar PC board processing operations after preparation
for assembly. These operations can generally be summarized as 
follows:

Applications/Processing Guide

Soldering (SMT)

Four types of equipment are usually associated with SMT 
soldering:

IR System — Uses a multi-zone infrared furnace with IR 
elements heated to a temperature substantially above chamber
or product temperature. Energy is supplied to the product 
primarily by IR radiation to reflow solder.

General Guidelines for Guarding Against Component Damage

To minimize temperature shock

• Pre-heat boards to maximum acceptable level
• Reduce time in solder

To avoid heating components above their maximum rated 
temperature

• Use lowest acceptable solder temperature
• Use maximum allowable conveyor speed
• Limit pre-heat temperature to maximum necessary

To limit time of exposure above rated temperature

• Limit time in solder

SETTABILITY

Settability refers to the ease with which a trimmer can be set

accurately to the position that produces the desired circuit condition.

Where the requirement  is for obtaining a highly accurate set-

ting the preference is for cermet — because a small incremental
adjustment in a wirewound unit does not always produce the
expected change in output as the wiper moves off one turn of wire
and onto another.

Setting accuracy is better with a multiturn unit than with a 

single-turn. This is especially true when the speed of setting is also 
a requirement as on a production line (Figure 2).

STABILITY

Stability refers to the ability of the trimmer to remain at the

desired setting. Environmental factors play an important role here:
stability may be affected by temperature exposure, thermal shock/
cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock or vibration.

This is not a matter of concern in most applications, since

Bourns trimmers exhibit excellent stability under all specified condi-
tions. Stability is most often a concern when cermet trimmers are
used in low current "dry" circuits (50uA amps and below). Under
these conditions the contact resistance may vary, making the wiper
appear unstable. This is most noticeable in some rheostat applica-
tions. This can be avoided by using a wirewound unit, or choosing a
cermet trimmer that has been designed for dry-circuit applications.
Bourns applications engineers can assist you on this and other 
questions.

ACCESSIBILITY

When selecting a trimmer and determining its placement on the

board, keep in mind the people who will have to use it. Bourns trim-
mers are available in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, configurations,
and placement of adjustment screws. You will usually find a unit on
which the access for adjustment will be convenient for the user.

Keep in mind the different requirements for accessibility

depending on whether adjustment will be done on the assembly line
or in the field; with the board uncovered, in a housing or cabinet, or
on an extender. Also consider whether production-line adjustment
will be done manually or by robotics. A Bourns applications engineer
can advise on special high-speed automatic adjustment features.

USABILITY

In selecting a trimmer for a specific application, it's important to

be aware that the catalog contains a myriad of facts about each
model that can assist you in finding the most suitable choice. For
example:

Contact Resistance Variation (CRV) — Under MIL-R 22097 and

MIL-R-39035, the maximum CRV is 3%. All Bourns trimmers meet
this standard (3% or 3 ohms, whichever is greater). For applications
that demand a more rigorous standard, some Bourns trimmers are
rated at 2% or 2 ohms, and many others at 1% or 1 ohm.

Power Rating — The ambient temperature at which the trimmer

will operate has an important bearing on power rating. Power ratings
are usually specified at 70º or 85ºC; at a temperature of 150ºC, the
power rating of many trimmers is reduced to zero.

Temperature Coefficient of Resistance (T.C.) — This specifica-

tion is a measure of how much the resistance changes with a
change in temperature. In many applications a T.C. of ±250PPM/ºC
is acceptable. Typical T.C. specifications for cermet models are
±100PPM/ºC and ±50PPM/ºC for wirewound models.

RELIABILITY

One of the greatest challenges facing American manufactur-

ers in the early '90s lies in the area of reliability — a challenge for
component manufacturers and equipment manufacturers alike.
Bourns has been on the leading edge of this effort, both in the area
of instituting new methods and technologies for achieving higher
reliability, and bringing an awareness of the need to other manufac-
turers.

SURFACE MOUNTED DEVICES (SMD)

AN EMERGING TECHNOLOGY

Surface mounting of electronic components represents another

significant advance in PC board processing. Many U.S. companies
have expressed an interest in SMD assembly methods to replace the
often troublesome and costly techniques now used with leaded
components. Unfortunately, for a number of reasons, this interest
has not resulted to date in a major commitment to SMD handling
equipment.

There are direct and indirect benefits associated with surface

mounting. Since the direct benefits are outgrowths of the indirect
ones, some explanation of these interrelated factors is required in
order to understand this complex, highly technical and investment
intensive subject. Further, a listing of the primary advantages will
make additional comments on Japan's SMD usage and growth
unnecessary.

In capsule format, the primary advantages (with comments on

secondary benefits) are:

• Lower End-Equipment Cost

(positions OEM's for aggressive pricing to achieve market
penetration).

• Superior Product Performance

(satisfies user requirements for improved operational 
performance).

• Improved Product Quality and Reliability

(creates confidence factor which easily translates to
increased demand or sales).

• Smaller Finished Product Size 

(addresses demand for miniaturization).

Cost, performance, quality/reliability and size — how are these

factors interrelated and how are they achieved through surface
mounting?

A by-product of SMD technology is the downsizing of compo-

nents. Size reductions range from 25% to 60%, depending upon the
device in question. High PC board densities can be achieved (more
components per square inch of real estate; surface mounted units
can also be assembled on both sides). PC board material savings
alone are substantial. When circuits diminish, external hardware and
other materials follow — further savings. Even freight charges are
decreased by lighter equipment weight and less packaging.

Surface mounted component prices are forecasted to decline,

the result of automated volume production. Volume is directly related
to component standardization. By having a few sizes to cover a large
range of electrical values and/or parameters, large quantities of a
given device can be produced at a much lower per unit cost. Selling
prices fall as volume increases. Component quality is also enhanced
by eliminating many of the variables associated with short produc-
tion runs.

Automatic SMD handling equipment, although capital intensive,

is the single-most effective way to reduce labor costs and increase
yields. Typical "pick and place" machines can assemble compo-
nents 8 to 10 times faster than human assemblers, with virtually no
mistakes. Major direct labor reductions are obvious. The combina-
tion of improved component quality and "mistake-free" component
placement further decreases costs by eliminating the normal rework
of auto-inserted boards.

The many advantages of SMD technology will force change

upon both electronic equipment manufacturers and component 
suppliers alike. Worldwide competitive prices and performance 
pressures will make it happen. Few electronic components will
escape its influence, trimming potentiometers being no exception.
Bourns is committed to SMD conversion, and we intend to be a
leader in surface mounted trimmer devices. Bourns surface mount
trimmers begin on page 12.
