CSTCR6M00G53-R0

Resonators Overview

The Murata CSTCR6M00G53-R0 is a surface-mount ceramic resonator operating at a nominal frequency of 6 MHz. It features an integrated load capacitance of 15 pF, eliminating the need for external capacitors. The device offers a frequency tolerance of ±0.5% and a frequency stability of ±0.2%. Operating within a temperature range of -20°C to +80°C, it utilizes a shear mode oscillation pattern. The component measures 4.5 mm in length, 2.0 mm in width, and 1.2 mm in height, housed in a standard 3-SMD non-standard package.

Resonators Feature Summary

• Integrated load capacitance design removes requirement for external components
• Compact low-profile surface mount construction suitable for space-constrained PCBs
• Shear mode operation provides stable oscillation characteristics

Resonators Applications

• Engine control units
• Electronic power steering systems
• xEV powertrains

Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation carefully, as listings may reference Murata Power Solutions Inc. or Murata Electronics. Confirm the specific suffix R0 indicates reel packaging. Ensure the 15 pF internal capacitance matches circuit requirements, as other variants in the series utilize different values. Cross-reference the datasheet version to confirm compliance with RoHS3 standards and current moisture sensitivity levels before finalizing procurement orders.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 6 MHz clock source is required without external tuning capacitors. The 15 pF built-in capacitance must align with the microcontroller's specified load requirements. Consider the ±0.5% tolerance for timing accuracy needs. The limited temperature range of -20°C to +80°C restricts usage in extreme environmental conditions compared to wider-range alternatives.

Resonators Part Context

This part belongs to the CERALOCK CSTCR-G series of small-cap chip type ceramic resonators. These devices are designed to replace traditional quartz crystals by integrating necessary capacitance directly into the package. The series supports various frequencies and capacitance values, offering a cost-effective and compact solution for general-purpose clock generation in consumer and automotive electronics.

Resonators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other CSTCR series parts with identical 6 MHz frequency and 15 pF capacitance, such as CSTCR6M00G53-R0 from Murata Electronics. Verify pinout compatibility and physical dimensions (4.5 x 2.0 x 1.2 mm) when considering alternative manufacturers.
