7L-16.368MCS-T

Oscillators Overview

The TXC Corporation 7L-16.368MCS-T is a Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator (TCXO) operating at a nominal frequency of 16.368 MHz. It delivers a clipped sine wave output and functions within a supply voltage range of 2.5 V. The component exhibits a frequency stability of ±2 ppm across an operating temperature range of -30°C to +85°C. Its physical dimensions are 2.5 mm in length, 2.0 mm in width, and 0.8 mm in height, housed in a 4-SMD surface-mount package.

Oscillators Feature Summary

• Temperature-compensated crystal oscillator design for stable frequency generation
• Clipped sine wave output format suitable for specific receiver inputs
• Compact 4-SMD surface-mount footprint for space-constrained layouts

Oscillators Applications

• GPS navigation systems
• WiMAX communication devices
• Cellular network infrastructure
• Wireless communication modules

Oscillators Procurement Notes

Verify the current lifecycle status with the manufacturer, as discontinuation notifications may apply to this series. Confirm that the 2.5V supply requirement aligns with your system design. Ensure the clipped sine wave output is compatible with your downstream circuitry input specifications before finalizing procurement.

Oscillators Selection Notes

Select this model when a 16.368 MHz reference signal is required with ±2 ppm stability over industrial temperatures. The 2.5V supply voltage dictates power budget considerations. The small SMD package size supports high-density PCB designs where standard through-hole or larger oscillators cannot fit.

Oscillators Part Context

This component belongs to the TXC 7L series of TCXOs, which are engineered for wireless communications and GPS applications. The series provides various frequencies including 16.368 MHz, 16.369 MHz, and others, all sharing similar compact form factors and performance characteristics tailored for mobile and base station equipment.

Oscillators Replacement Considerations

The 7L-16.369MCG-T is a documented substitute within the same series offering a 16.369 MHz frequency. Other 7L series variants like the 7L-16.368MBS-T exist but may differ in packaging or specific electrical tolerances; verify datasheet compatibility before substitution.
