Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix Z against official Murata documentation to confirm if it denotes a distinct variant or packaging specification compared to standard CSTCR6M00G53-R0. Ensure the selected part matches the required operating temperature range of -20°C to +80°C. Cross-reference the datasheet for any updates on RoHS compliance status and REACH SVHC declarations prior to final procurement decisions.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when designing circuits that require a stable 6 MHz reference without external tuning capacitors. The built-in 15 pF capacitance simplifies layout and reduces BOM count. Consider the ±0.2% frequency stability for precision timing needs. Evaluate the -20°C to +80°C operating range against environmental conditions. Compare physical dimensions (4.5x2.0x1.2 mm) with available PCB real estate.

Resonators Part Context

This part belongs to the CERALOCK CSTCR-G series of small-capacitance chip-type ceramic resonators. These devices are designed to replace traditional quartz crystals by integrating the load capacitor directly into the package. The series offers various frequencies and tolerances, providing a cost-effective and space-saving alternative for consumer electronics and industrial control systems requiring precise clock signals.

Resonators Replacement Considerations

CSTCR6M00G53-R0 is a closely related variant within the same series. Verify if the 'Z' suffix indicates a specific tape-and-reel configuration or minor parameter difference. Consult the official Murata CERALOCK Part Numbering guide to ensure functional equivalence before substitution.
