AWSCR-8.00CPLA-C15-T4

Overview

The AWSCR-8.00CPLA-C15-T4 is a surface-mount ceramic resonator manufactured by Abracon LLC, operating at a nominal frequency of 8 MHz. It features an integrated load capacitance of 15 pF and a maximum equivalent series resistance (ESR) of 30 Ohms. The component exhibits a frequency stability of ±0.3% and a tolerance of ±0.5%. Designed for robust performance, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The device utilizes a 3-SMD non-standard package with dimensions of 6.00mm in length, 3.00mm in width, and 1.50mm in height.

Feature Summary

• Integrates internal capacitors to simplify circuit design and reduce external component count.
• Provides stable frequency generation suitable for microcontroller clock applications.
• Offers high reliability through ceramic construction and wide operational temperature range.

Applications

• Microcontroller clock sources
• Real-time clock circuits
• General-purpose timing applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CPLA' against datasheets to confirm the 15pF capacitance and 30 Ohm ESR parameters. Ensure the 6.00mm x 3.00mm footprint matches the PCB layout. Confirm RoHS3 compliance requirements if applicable to the target assembly standards.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an 8 MHz clock source with moderate stability is required. The 15pF integrated capacitance suits systems designed for this specific load value. Consider the 30 Ohm ESR limit for oscillator drive level constraints. Compare against the CELA series if higher stability or different packaging is needed.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AWSCR-CPLA series of ceramic resonators from Abracon. These components are designed as cost-effective alternatives to quartz crystals, offering easier soldering characteristics and reduced sensitivity to mechanical stress compared to traditional piezoelectric devices.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute: CSTNE8M00G550000R0 (Murata Electronics). Verify electrical equivalence including frequency, capacitance, and ESR before substitution.
