Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'B' against official Murata documentation to confirm the exact tolerance and packaging specifications. Ensure the requested quantity aligns with standard reel or cut-tape availability. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor catalogs to confirm current production status and compliance with RoHS standards before finalizing procurement orders.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 5.6 MHz reference is required with tight frequency tolerance. The integrated 39 pF capacitance matches common microcontroller input requirements, reducing bill of materials complexity. Consider the ±0.5% tolerance for applications requiring higher precision than standard ceramic resonators offer, while maintaining cost advantages over crystal oscillators.

Resonators Part Context

This part belongs to the CERALOCK CSTCR series, designed as a drop-in replacement for discrete crystal oscillator circuits. It utilizes Murata's proprietary ceramic technology to provide stable frequency generation in a compact form factor. The series is widely used in consumer electronics and industrial control systems where size and cost efficiency are critical constraints.

Resonators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Murata CERALOCK models with matching 5.6 MHz frequency and 39 pF load capacitance. Verify that alternative components support the same -40°C to +125°C operating range and SMD footprint dimensions to ensure mechanical compatibility without PCB redesign.
