416F50012CLT

Overview

The CTS-Frequency Controls 416F50012CLT is a fundamental mode MHz crystal resonator designed for surface-mount applications. It operates at a nominal frequency of 50 MHz with a load capacitance of 12 pF. The component offers a frequency tolerance of ±10 ppm and a stability of ±20 ppm. It features an equivalent series resistance (ESR) of 60 Ohms and functions within a temperature range of -20°C to +70°C. The device is housed in a compact 4-SMD, No Lead package with dimensions of 1.60mm x 1.20mm x 0.45mm maximum height.

Feature Summary

• Fundamental mode operation for precise frequency generation
• Compact 4-SMD surface-mount footprint for automated assembly
• RoHS3 compliant construction supporting environmental regulations

Applications

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

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CLT' against official CTS documentation to confirm packaging and material specifications. Ensure the required load capacitance matches the target circuit design. Confirm availability status as distribution data may indicate discontinuation or limited stock. Cross-reference the ESR value with oscillator driver strength requirements to prevent over-driving.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 50 MHz fundamental resonance is required in a small form factor. The 12 pF load capacitance must align with the host system's external capacitor values. Consider the ±20 ppm stability for general-purpose timing rather than high-precision applications. Verify that the operating temperature range meets the environmental constraints of the final product.

Part Context

This part belongs to the CTS 416 Series of surface-mount crystals. The series provides various frequency options and load capacitances in a standardized 1.6x1.2mm package. The 416F50012CLT specifically addresses the common need for 50 MHz timing in consumer and industrial electronics where space efficiency is critical.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly documented parameter-equivalent substitutes include 416F50012CTR and 416F50012CAR from CTS-Frequency Controls. These alternatives share identical electrical characteristics and mechanical dimensions. Verify package compatibility before substitution.
