AWSCR-3.58MGD-T4

Overview

The Abracon AWSCR-3.58MGD-T4 is a surface-mount ceramic resonator operating at a nominal frequency of 3.58 MHz. It features an integrated load capacitance of 22 pF and a typical impedance of 30 Ohms. The component exhibits a frequency tolerance of ±0.5% and stability of ±0.3%. Designed for industrial applications, it operates within a temperature range of -25°C to +85°C. The device utilizes a 3-SMD non-standard package with solder terminations.

Feature Summary

• Integrates internal matching capacitors to simplify circuit design and reduce bill of materials.
• Provides stable frequency generation suitable for general-purpose microcontroller clocking.
• Supports standard surface-mount reflow soldering processes without requiring pre-baking.

Applications

• Microcontroller system clocks
• Remote control devices
• Consumer electronics timing circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T4' against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm packaging and tape specifications. Ensure that the receiving environment meets moisture sensitivity level 1 requirements, as no baking is necessary prior to assembly. Confirm that the application does not require washing, as cleaning agents may affect performance.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a cost-effective clock source is needed for frequencies around 3.58 MHz. It is appropriate for designs where moderate accuracy suffices and external capacitors are undesirable. Compare impedance characteristics with the target oscillator circuit to ensure reliable startup conditions.

Part Context
