CSTLS3M48G53-B0

Resonators Overview

The Murata CSTLS3M48G53-B0 is a ceramic resonator from the CERALOCK series, designed for oscillator circuits requiring no external adjustment. It operates at a nominal frequency of 3.6864 MHz with a tolerance of ±0.5%. The component utilizes third harmonic oscillation mode and features a 15 pF load capacitance. It is housed in a radial 3-lead package with a 2.50 mm pitch, measuring 6.00 mm in height. The device supports through-hole mounting and functions within a temperature range of -20°C to +80°C.

Resonators Feature Summary

• Enables design of oscillator circuits without requiring external adjustment
• Utilizes third harmonic oscillation mode for stable performance
• Compliant with RoHS and REACH standards

Resonators Applications

• Dual tone multi-frequency (DTMF) signal generation
• Microcontroller clock sources
• General-purpose timing circuits

Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix B0 against official Murata documentation to confirm pin configuration and packaging details. Ensure the selected variant matches the required 3.6864 MHz frequency and 15 pF load capacitance for your circuit design. Confirm compliance with RoHS and REACH regulations if applicable to your region. Check for any product change notifications or lifecycle status updates before finalizing procurement plans.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when a cost-effective, maintenance-free clock source is needed for microcontrollers or logic circuits. The 3.6864 MHz frequency is suitable for generating standard baud rates in serial communication interfaces. Consider the through-hole package constraints and ensure the PCB layout accommodates the 2.50 mm lead pitch. Verify that the operating temperature range meets the environmental requirements of the target application.

Resonators Part Context

This part belongs to the Murata CSTLS CERALOCK family of ceramic resonators. These components are engineered to replace quartz crystals in applications where high precision is not critical but cost and size are important factors. The CERALOCK technology integrates the resonant element and matching capacitors into a single package, simplifying the design process and reducing board space.

Resonators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Murata CSTLS series parts with identical frequency and package dimensions, such as CSTLS3M48 variants with different suffixes if pinout compatibility is confirmed. Cross-brand replacements require matching frequency, load capacitance, and physical footprint.
