7M-24.000METC-T

Crystals Overview

The 7M-24.000METC-T is a surface-mount quartz crystal manufactured by TXC Corporation, designed for precision timing applications. It operates at a fundamental frequency of 24 MHz with a frequency tolerance and stability of ±10 ppm across the industrial temperature range of -30°C to +85°C. The component features a load capacitance of 9 pF and an equivalent series resistance (ESR) of 50 Ohms. It utilizes a seam seal package construction in a 4-SMD, no-lead form factor measuring 3.2 mm in length and 2.5 mm in width.

Crystals Feature Summary

• Seam seal ceramic package construction for environmental protection
• Industrial temperature range operation from -30°C to +85°C
• Surface mount SMD configuration for automated assembly

Crystals Applications

• Microcontroller clock sources
• Communication interface timing
• Digital signal processing circuits

Crystals Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer datasheet to ensure correct tolerance and packaging specifications. Confirm that the required load capacitance matches the circuit design requirements. Check current availability status as supply conditions may vary. Ensure compliance with relevant environmental directives such as RoHS before integration into final products.

Crystals Selection Notes

Select this component when a 24 MHz reference is required with tight frequency stability of ±10 ppm. The 9 pF load capacitance must align with the oscillator circuit design. Consider the 3.2x2.5 mm footprint for PCB layout constraints. Verify that the operating temperature range meets the environmental conditions of the intended application environment.

Crystals Part Context

This part belongs to the TXC 7M series of seam seal crystals. These components are characterized by their robust ceramic packaging and stable electrical performance. The series supports various frequencies and tolerances for general-purpose timing needs in consumer and industrial electronics.

Crystals Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes require matching 24 MHz frequency, ±10 ppm tolerance, 9 pF load capacitance, and 3.2x2.5 mm package dimensions. Verify ESR compatibility and temperature range coverage. Cross-reference pinout and mounting style to ensure mechanical interchangeability without redesign.
