Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official Murata documentation to confirm the integrated load capacitance value, as variations exist within the CSTLS series. Ensure the selected variant matches the required PCB footprint dimensions and thermal operating range for the target application environment.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when a cost-effective, space-saving clock source is required for microcontrollers or digital systems. Compare the 30 pF internal capacitance against system requirements to determine if external trimming capacitors are necessary. Evaluate the ±0.5% tolerance against the host processor's clock accuracy specifications.

Resonators Part Context

This part belongs to the CSTLS series of ceramic resonators from Murata Electronics. These components are designed as alternatives to quartz crystals, offering lower cost and simpler assembly due to integrated capacitors. The series supports various frequencies and package sizes for general-purpose timing applications.

Resonators Replacement Considerations

CSTLS16M0X53-B0: Similar 16 MHz resonator but with different physical dimensions (5.5mm x 3.5mm) and potentially different internal capacitance; verify electrical parameters before substitution.
