AB-10.000MHZ-B2

Overview

The Abracon AB-10.000MHZ-B2 is a 10 MHz fundamental mode crystal oscillator housed in a 5mm x 3.2mm SMD package. It operates at a nominal frequency of 10.000 MHz with a load capacitance of 18 pF. The device features a frequency tolerance of ±30 ppm and a stability of ±20 ppm over the temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Key electrical parameters include a series resistance of 50 ohms maximum and a shunt capacitance of 5 pF maximum.

Feature Summary

• Fundamental mode operation for stable frequency generation
• RoHS compliant construction suitable for lead-free assembly processes
• Designed for surface mount technology integration

Applications

• General purpose clock sources for microprocessors
• Timing references for communication interfaces
• Consumer electronics requiring precise timekeeping

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required load capacitance and tolerance specifications. Confirm package dimensions align with the PCB footprint design. Ensure the supplier provides valid RoHS compliance documentation. Check for any special handling requirements regarding ESD sensitivity during storage and assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fundamental mode crystal is required for lower power consumption compared to overtone modes. Consider the 18 pF load capacitance requirement for circuit matching. Evaluate the ±30 ppm initial tolerance against system timing budgets. Assess the operating temperature range suitability for the intended environmental conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to Abracon's standard series of surface mount crystals. It serves as a basic timing element for digital circuits. The B2 designation typically indicates specific packaging or tape-and-reel configuration details within the manufacturer's catalog structure.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 10 MHz frequency, 5x3.2mm package, and 18 pF load capacitance. Verify equivalent electrical characteristics such as series resistance and stability ratings. Cross-reference pin compatibility if mechanical variations exist between manufacturers.
