AWSZT-16.93CV-T

Overview

The AWSZT-16.93CV-T is a ceramic resonator manufactured by Abracon LLC, designed for surface-mount applications. It operates at a nominal frequency of 16.93 MHz with a frequency tolerance of ±0.5% and stability of ±0.3%. The component features an integrated load capacitance of 30 pF and an impedance of 40 Ohms. It is housed in a compact SMD package measuring 3.7 mm in length, 1 mm in width, and 3.1 mm in height. The device supports an industrial operating temperature range from -25°C to +85°C and complies with RoHS standards.

Feature Summary

• Integrated 30 pF load capacitance simplifies circuit design by eliminating external capacitors.
• Compact three-terminal surface-mount package suitable for space-constrained PCB layouts.
• Industrial-grade temperature rating ensures reliable performance across wide thermal variations.

Applications

• Microcontroller clock generation circuits
• Communication module timing references
• Consumer electronics control boards

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CV' against the official Abracon datasheet to confirm the exact electrical parameters, particularly the 30 pF capacitance and 40 Ohm impedance values. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required frequency tolerance of ±0.5% and stability of ±0.3% for your application. Confirm compliance requirements such as RoHS status directly with the manufacturer documentation before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a cost-effective, low-profile timing solution is required for microcontroller or logic circuits. The integrated capacitance reduces bill-of-materials complexity compared to discrete crystal setups. Consider the 40 Ohm impedance and 30 pF internal capacitance when designing the oscillator circuit to ensure proper startup and stable operation within the specified industrial temperature range.

Part Context

This part belongs to the AWSZT-CV series of industrial-grade ceramic resonators from Abracon. These components are engineered as alternatives to traditional quartz crystals, offering a balance between performance and cost. The series utilizes a standard SMD footprint compatible with automated assembly processes, targeting high-volume consumer and industrial electronic manufacturing.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Abracon ceramic resonators with identical 16.93 MHz frequency, 30 pF capacitance, and similar physical dimensions, such as variants within the same AWSZT-CV family. Cross-manufacturer replacements require matching frequency, load capacitance, and impedance characteristics to maintain oscillator circuit stability.
