Crystals Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against the manufacturer datasheet to confirm exact electrical parameters, including load capacitance and tolerance levels. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required frequency stability and package dimensions for your design. Cross-reference official documentation to validate RoHS compliance and moisture sensitivity ratings before procurement.

Crystals Selection Notes

Select this component when a 24 MHz reference is required with ±20 ppm stability and a 12 pF load capacitance. Consider the 5x3.2 mm footprint for space-constrained layouts. Evaluate the ESR and drive level specifications against the oscillator circuit requirements to ensure reliable startup and long-term frequency accuracy under varying thermal conditions.

Crystals Part Context

This part belongs to the 445 series of surface-mount crystals from CTS-Frequency Controls.
