Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'A' in the part number CSTCC8M66G53A-R0 against official Murata documentation to confirm exact specifications, as suffixes can indicate variations in package or performance. Ensure compatibility with the target circuit's load capacitance requirements of 15 pF. Cross-reference the datasheet for any updates regarding RoHS compliance or environmental restrictions before finalizing procurement decisions.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when a stable, low-cost clock source is needed for ICs or LSIs in space-constrained designs. The 8.66 MHz frequency suits specific timing requirements where standard frequencies are not applicable. Consider the ±5% tolerance and -20°C to +80°C temperature range to ensure reliability within the intended operational environment compared to higher-precision crystal oscillators.

Resonators Part Context

This resonator belongs to the CERALOCK family, which leverages piezoelectric ceramic properties for clock generation. It serves as a cost-effective alternative to quartz crystals in applications where high precision is not critical but stability and small form factor are required. The series is widely used in consumer electronics and industrial control systems managed by single ICs or LSI chips.
