Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'A' against official Murata documentation to confirm pinout or electrical variations compared to standard variants. Ensure the selected package type matches the target PCB footprint requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status aligns with regional regulatory standards before finalizing procurement orders.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when a cost-effective, pre-tuned clock source is required for automotive microcontrollers. The integrated capacitor reduces board space and assembly complexity. Verify that the 3 MHz frequency meets the system timing requirements and that the ±5% tolerance is acceptable for the application's clock accuracy needs.

Resonators Part Context

This part belongs to the CERALOCK CSTCR/CSTCC family of small-cap ceramic resonators. These components are engineered to replace traditional crystal oscillators in applications where high precision is not critical but size and cost are primary constraints. The series supports various frequencies and packages for diverse embedded control needs.

Resonators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Murata CERALOCK parts with identical 3 MHz frequency and 15 pF load capacitance, such as the CSTCC3M00G53-R0, provided the 'A' suffix does not indicate a unique electrical characteristic. Cross-reference datasheets for mechanical compatibility.
