• Microcontroller clock sources
• Consumer electronics timing circuits
• Industrial control system oscillators

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T4' against the manufacturer's latest datasheet to confirm the exact temperature range (-25°C to +85°C) and packaging details. Ensure compatibility with the target PCB footprint (6.0 x 3.0 x 1.8 mm). Cross-reference the part number with authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit components, as minor suffix variations can alter electrical characteristics or environmental ratings.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a cost-effective, compact clock source is required for non-critical timing applications. The integrated capacitor reduces external component count compared to standard crystals. Consider the limited low-temperature operating range (-25°C) when designing for harsh environments; alternative high-temperature variants may be necessary if operation below -25°C is required.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Abracon AWSCR series of ceramic resonators. These devices serve as alternatives to quartz crystals, offering lower cost and simpler driving circuit requirements due to internal capacitors. The CP variant typically denotes specific dimensional and electrical characteristics within the broader product line, targeting general-purpose consumer and industrial electronics.
