AWSCR-8.00CP-T

Overview

The AWSCR-8.00CP-T is a ceramic resonator manufactured by Abracon LLC, designed for surface-mount applications. It operates at a nominal frequency of 8 MHz with a tolerance of ±0.5% and stability of ±0.3%. The component features an integrated load capacitance of 30 pF and a maximum impedance of 30 Ohms. It supports a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C. The device utilizes a three-terminal SMD package measuring 6.0 mm in length, 3.0 mm in width, and 1.8 mm in height.

Feature Summary

• Integrated internal capacitance eliminates the need for external capacitors
• High thermal stability suitable for demanding industrial environments
• Compact surface-mount footprint facilitates automated assembly

Applications

• Microcontroller clock generation circuits
• Industrial control system timing references
• Consumer electronics power management units

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix 'T' corresponds to the required tape and reel packaging configuration for your manufacturing line. Confirm that the standard 30 pF internal capacitance aligns with your circuit design requirements before finalizing orders. Ensure compliance with RoHS3 standards if applicable to your region's environmental regulations.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a stable 8 MHz reference is required within a compact SMD form factor. The high temperature rating makes it appropriate for automotive or industrial sectors where ambient heat exceeds standard commercial limits. Compare against other series like CPLB or CELA if different physical dimensions or capacitance values are necessary for board layout constraints.
