402F300XXCAT

Crystals Overview

The CTS-Frequency Controls 402F300XXCAT is a surface-mount MHz crystal designed for base fundamental operation. It operates at a nominal frequency of 30 MHz with a frequency stability and tolerance of ±15ppm. The component features a load capacitance of 10pF and an equivalent series resistance (ESR) of 80 Ohms. It is housed in a compact 4-SMD, No Lead package with dimensions of 2.00mm x 1.60mm and a maximum seated height of 0.55mm. The device supports a standard operating temperature range of -20°C to +70°C and complies with RoHS3 standards.

Crystals Feature Summary

• Surface-mount design in a 4-SMD No Lead package for automated assembly
• Base fundamental mode operation ensuring stable frequency generation
• Compact physical footprint suitable for space-constrained PCB layouts

Crystals Applications

• Microcontroller clock sources
• Communication module timing references
• Digital signal processing circuits

Crystals Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix CAT against official CTS documentation to confirm the 10pF load capacitance specification. Ensure the application circuit matches this capacitance requirement to maintain the stated ±15ppm frequency accuracy. Confirm that the operating environment remains within the specified -20°C to +70°C range to guarantee performance reliability.

Crystals Selection Notes

Select this component when a 30 MHz base fundamental crystal with 10pF load capacitance is required. Compare against the 402F300XXCJT variant if a 9pF load capacitance is preferred for the same frequency. Ensure the 4-SMD package size aligns with the board space constraints and that the ±15ppm stability meets the system timing requirements.

Crystals Part Context

This part belongs to the CTS 402 series of surface-mount crystals. The series offers various frequency codes and load capacitance options within a standardized 2.00mm x 1.60mm package. The 402F300XXCAT specifically provides the 10pF load capacitance variant for the 30 MHz frequency code, distinguishing it from other suffixes like XXCJT which use 9pF.

Crystals Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the 402F300XXCJR and 402F30011CJR from CTS-Frequency Controls. Verify that any replacement maintains the identical 10pF load capacitance and 30 MHz frequency to ensure circuit compatibility.
