Crystals Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'AAE' against the official TXC datasheet to confirm the exact electrical parameters, including ESR and load capacitance, as these define the functional compatibility. Ensure the operating temperature range of -20°C to +70°C meets the environmental requirements of the target application before finalizing the procurement order.

Crystals Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard 12.288 MHz reference is required in a compact 3.2x2.5mm SMD form factor. The ±30 ppm stability is suitable for general digital logic and UART/USB timing where high precision is not critical. Confirm that the 12pF load capacitance matches the host circuit's design specifications to ensure accurate frequency generation.

Crystals Part Context

This part belongs to the 7M series of crystals from TXC Corporation, which are characterized by their small 3.2x2.5mm package size. The series is widely used in consumer electronics and portable devices due to its balance of cost, size, and performance. The 7M-12.288MAAE-T specifically targets applications requiring a stable 12.288 MHz clock signal in space-constrained designs.
