CSTNE16M0V51C000R0

Resonators Overview

The CSTNE16M0V51C000R0 is a ceramic resonator manufactured by Murata Electronics, designed for surface-mount technology applications. It operates at a nominal frequency of 16 MHz with a load capacitance of 5 pF and a frequency stability of ±0.3%. The component features an integrated capacitor structure, eliminating the need for external capacitors in oscillator circuits. It is housed in a compact 3.2 mm x 1.3 mm x 0.9 mm SMD package, suitable for space-constrained designs. The device supports a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +125°C, ensuring reliability in diverse environmental conditions.

Resonators Feature Summary

• Integrated capacitor design simplifies circuit layout by removing the requirement for external load capacitors.
• High frequency stability of ±0.3% ensures precise timing performance across the specified temperature range.
• Robust construction supports operation in extreme temperatures from -40°C to +125°C.

Resonators Applications

• Microcontroller clock sources
• Communication module timing references
• Embedded system oscillators

Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C000' against the official Murata datasheet to confirm the exact load capacitance and tolerance specifications. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required frequency stability and package dimensions. Cross-reference the RoHS compliance status with the latest manufacturer documentation before finalizing procurement decisions.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, low-component-count solution is required for 16 MHz timing applications. The integrated capacitor feature reduces board space and assembly complexity compared to discrete crystal setups. Consider the ±0.3% stability requirement and the wide temperature range suitability for industrial or automotive environments where standard consumer-grade parts may not suffice.

Resonators Part Context

This part belongs to the CERALOCK series of ceramic resonators from Murata Electronics. These components are engineered as cost-effective alternatives to quartz crystals, offering comparable performance in many applications while requiring fewer external components. The series is widely used in consumer electronics and industrial control systems where moderate precision and high volume production are prioritized.

Resonators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other Murata ceramic resonators with identical 16 MHz frequency, 5 pF load capacitance, and 3.2x1.3mm footprint, such as the CSTNE16M0V53C000R0 if higher tolerance is acceptable. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics before substituting with non-Murata brands.
