Crystals Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific ordering suffix matches the required electrical parameters, particularly the ESR value of 60 Ohms and the operating temperature range of -20°C to +70°C. Confirm package compatibility with the HC-49/US footprint on the target PCB layout. Ensure the load capacitance specification aligns with the host circuit design requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Crystals Selection Notes

Select this component when a standard HC-49/US form factor is required in a surface mount configuration. The 60 Ohm ESR and 18 pF load capacitance define the necessary external circuit loading conditions. Consider the -20°C to +70°C operational range against the environmental constraints of the intended application environment.

Crystals Part Context

This part belongs to the CSM1 series of low-profile surface mount crystals from Cardinal Components Inc. The series offers various frequency and tolerance options while maintaining the mechanical robustness associated with the HC-49/US style package adapted for SMD assembly. It serves as a direct replacement for through-hole variants where space savings are prioritized.

Crystals Replacement Considerations

ABLS-27.000MHZ-B2F-T and ABLS-27.000MHZ-B4-FT are listed as parameter equivalents by distributors, though these reference different frequencies. Verify exact electrical match for 8 MHz operation before substitution.
