Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'R0' against official Murata documentation to confirm tape and reel specifications. Ensure the requested part matches the exact 8.46 MHz frequency and 33 pF load capacitance requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current datasheets before procurement.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, low-cost alternative to discrete crystal and capacitor networks is required. The integrated design reduces PCB footprint significantly. Verify that the 8.46 MHz frequency aligns with system timing needs and that the ±0.5% tolerance meets application stability requirements.

Resonators Part Context

This part belongs to the CSTCE series of CERALOCK ceramic resonators. These components integrate a quartz crystal element with internal capacitors into a single surface-mount package. The series is designed to replace traditional three-component oscillator circuits, simplifying layout and reducing assembly costs.
