Procurement Notes

Verify the specific frequency stability requirement of ±30 ppm against system specifications, as this differs from other variants in the 416 series. Confirm that the operating temperature range of -10°C to +60°C aligns with the intended application environment. Ensure compatibility with the 18 pF load capacitance required by the host circuit design before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 48 MHz fundamental frequency is required with moderate stability. The 1.6mm x 1.2mm footprint suits space-constrained designs. Consider the ±30 ppm stability limit for timing-sensitive applications. Verify that the -10°C to +60°C temperature range meets operational requirements compared to industrial grade alternatives offering wider ranges.

Part Context

This part belongs to the CTS 416 series of surface mount crystals. The series provides various frequency options in a standardized small outline package. The 416F480X3ADR specifically targets 48 MHz applications requiring 18 pF load capacitance. It represents a standard solution for general-purpose timing needs in consumer and industrial electronics.

Replacement Considerations

The 416F480XXCDT is listed as a parameter-equivalent substitute. Verify that the substitute matches the ±30 ppm stability specification and the -10°C to +60°C temperature range. Ensure the replacement maintains the 18 pF load capacitance and 60 Ohm ESR characteristics for circuit compatibility.
