RIVERSIDE, Calif. - April 29, 2003 - Bourns, Inc., a leading manufacturer of electronic components and integrated solutions is pleased to announce the release of Model 3223, the latest addition to our SMD family of trimmer products. Model 3223 is the first 3mm square Multiturn SMD sealed trimmer in the market. This trimmer was designed for those applications where accuracy in adjustment is crucial and board space is limited.

With sealed construction, Model 3223 was designed to withstand today's typical board processes such as IR, Forced Hot Air or Convection solder reflow. Recommended solder processing specifications are available upon request or may be found on this website.
Key features of the Model 3223 are:
- Vertical Adjustment
- Pick and place centering design with flush adjustment
- Surface Mount
- 3mm Size

The Model 3223 requires 42% less board space while maintaining similar electrical characteristics to its 4mm counterpart.
