8Q-26.000MEEV-T

Crystals Overview

The TXC CORPORATION 8Q-26.000MEEV-T is a surface-mount quartz crystal resonator operating at a nominal frequency of 26 MHz. It features a load capacitance of 8 pF and a frequency tolerance of ±10 ppm. The component utilizes fundamental mode operation with an equivalent series resistance (ESR) of 100 Ohms. It is housed in a compact 4-SMD, No Lead package with dimensions of 1.6 mm x 1.2 mm and a maximum height of 0.35 mm. The device supports a standard tape and reel packaging configuration.

Crystals Feature Summary

• Compact 4-SMD No Lead surface mount package design for automated assembly
• Fundamental mode quartz crystal resonance for stable signal generation
• RoHS3 compliant construction meeting environmental standards

Crystals Applications

• Clock signal generation in microcontroller circuits
• Frequency reference sources for communication modules
• Timing components in consumer electronic devices

Crystals Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure the correct load capacitance and tolerance match the circuit design requirements. Confirm that the 4-SMD No Lead package dimensions align with the PCB footprint constraints. Check current availability status as supply conditions may vary. Ensure compliance with RoHS3 regulations if required by the final product specifications.

Crystals Selection Notes

Select this component when a small form factor is critical for space-constrained designs. The 8 pF load capacitance requires matching oscillator circuit parameters accordingly. Consider the 100 Ohm ESR value for drive level sensitivity. Evaluate the -20°C to +70°C operating temperature range against environmental conditions. Compare against alternative packages if higher thermal stability or different mounting styles are needed.

Crystals Part Context

This part belongs to the 8Q series of high-frequency surface-mount crystals from TXC Corporation. The series offers various frequencies and load capacitances in a standardized 1.6 mm x 1.2 mm footprint. It serves as a passive timing element distinct from active oscillators, requiring an external oscillator circuit to function.
