Crystals Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'AAE' against official datasheets to confirm the -20°C to +70°C industrial temperature rating, as other suffixes like 'MAHE' may indicate automotive grades or different stability metrics. Ensure the 12 pF load capacitance matches the target oscillator circuit design requirements before procurement.

Crystals Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16 MHz fundamental frequency is required for standard microcontroller applications. The 60 Ohm ESR and 12 pF load capacitance are critical parameters for matching the host circuit's oscillation conditions. Consider the -20°C to +70°C operating range for suitability in general consumer environments.

Crystals Part Context

This part belongs to the 7M series of quartz crystals from TXC Corporation. The series provides various frequency options in a standardized small SMD footprint, designed for cost-effective mass production in consumer electronics and industrial control systems requiring stable timing references.
