Crystals Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package dimensions and electrical parameters against the official manufacturer datasheet prior to integration. Confirm that the 100 Ohm ESR and 10 pF load capacitance align with the target circuit design requirements. Ensure the operating temperature range meets the environmental specifications of the final application. Cross-reference the part number suffixes to guarantee compatibility with existing assembly processes.

Crystals Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile SMD crystal is required for 20 MHz applications. Consider the 100 Ohm ESR value for oscillator circuit stability. Evaluate the 10 pF load capacitance against the MCU or driver input capacitance. Compare the 4-SMD footprint against available board space constraints relative to other TXC crystal families.

Crystals Part Context

This part belongs to the 8Z series of surface-mount crystals from TXC Corporation. It serves as a passive frequency control element, distinct from active oscillators like the QTM or 8NE series. The 8Z series typically offers cost-effective solutions for general-purpose digital timing needs where high-frequency stability is not the primary constraint.
