Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure correct packaging options such as tape and reel or cut tape. Confirm that the selected variant matches the required frequency tolerance and load capacitance specifications for your circuit design before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 26 MHz reference signal is required for automotive or consumer electronics. Ensure the system load capacitance matches the specified 8 pF value to maintain accuracy within the ±15 ppm tolerance. Verify that the operating temperature range of -10°C to +75°C aligns with the environmental conditions of the target application.

Part Context

This part belongs to the NX3225SA series from NDK, which provides standard-sized surface-mount crystals. The series is engineered to meet the space constraints and reliability standards typical of modern portable electronics and automotive infotainment systems, offering a balance between performance and physical footprint.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other 26 MHz SMD crystals having 8 pF load capacitance and similar dimensions. Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameters such as ESR and stability before substitution.
