Resonators Procurement Notes

This component is officially listed as obsolete or end-of-life by the manufacturer. Availability is restricted to remaining stock from distributors. Verify current supply status and lead times carefully before design-in, as production has ceased.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this part for applications requiring a 15.7 MHz reference with ±0.5% tolerance. Ensure circuit design accommodates the 15 pF load capacitance. Consider alternative active oscillators if higher stability or wider temperature ranges are required.

Resonators Part Context

Part of the CERALOCK family, designed for cost-effective timing solutions. Offers better stability than passive LC circuits but lower precision than quartz crystals. Suitable for general-purpose digital logic timing where moderate accuracy suffices.

Resonators Replacement Considerations

No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed for this specific obsolete model. Evaluate similar frequency ceramic resonators from the same manufacturer's current portfolio or consider upgrading to MEMS oscillators for long-term supply security.
