ECS-CTP-8.00-30-TR

Resonators Overview

The ECS-CTP-8.00-30-TR is an 8 MHz ceramic resonator from the ECS Inc. CTP series, designed for surface-mount applications. It features a built-in load capacitance of 30 pF and a nominal impedance of 30 Ohms. The component offers a frequency tolerance of ±0.5% and stability of ±0.3%. Operating within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, it supports supply voltages up to 15 VAC or 6 VDC. The device is housed in a compact CSMD package measuring 6.0 x 3.0 x 1.5 mm and is available in reel or cut tape packaging.

Resonators Feature Summary

• Integrated ceramic resonator with built-in capacitors eliminates external component requirements
• Surface-mount design facilitates automated assembly and PCB space optimization
• Wide operating temperature range ensures reliability in diverse environmental conditions

Resonators Applications

• Microcontroller clock generation circuits
• Embedded system timing references
• Consumer electronics control boards

Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package dimensions (6.0 x 3.0 x 1.5 mm) against your PCB footprint library before ordering. Confirm that the 30 pF built-in capacitance matches the oscillator circuit requirements of your target microcontroller or logic gate. Ensure the ±0.5% tolerance meets your system's timing accuracy needs. Check RoHS compliance status if required by your manufacturing standards.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when a cost-effective, space-saving timing solution is needed for 8 MHz applications. It is suitable for designs where moderate frequency stability is acceptable and external capacitors are undesirable. Compare against the ECS-CTE series if a smaller 3.2 x 1.3 mm package is required, noting that the CTE series uses 33 pF capacitance. Choose this part over discrete crystal solutions when simplified BOM management is prioritized.

Resonators Part Context

This part belongs to the ECS CTP series of ceramic resonators, which are widely used in general-purpose digital circuits. The series provides a balance between performance and cost, serving as an alternative to traditional quartz crystals in applications where high precision is not critical. The CTP variant specifically denotes the standard surface-mount package size within the product line.
