Crystals Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'R' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm packaging configuration and compliance status. Ensure the load capacitance requirement of the target oscillator circuit matches the 8 pF specification to maintain frequency accuracy. Confirm that the PCB footprint aligns with the 2x1.6x0.5 mm outline to prevent mechanical interference during assembly.

Crystals Selection Notes

Select this component when a 26 MHz reference is required for space-constrained designs. The 8 pF load capacitance dictates compatibility with specific oscillator topologies; verify circuit requirements before integration. The ±30 ppm stability is suitable for general-purpose digital systems but may require tighter tolerances for high-precision synchronization applications.

Crystals Part Context

This part belongs to the C1E series of surface-mount crystals from Aker Technology Corp. The series offers various frequency options and package sizes tailored for consumer electronics and industrial control systems. The C1E designation indicates a specific form factor optimized for reflow soldering processes common in modern PCB manufacturing.

Crystals Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with C1E-26.000-8-3030-X or C1E-26.000-8-3030-R3 for identical electrical parameters. Verify that any substitute maintains the 8 pF load capacitance and 100 Ohm max series resistance to ensure circuit stability without modification.
