• Communication interface synchronization

Crystals Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official EPSON documentation to ensure correct frequency and tolerance specifications. Confirm that the 4-SMD package dimensions align with PCB layout requirements. Check for RoHS compliance status if required by project regulations. Ensure storage conditions adhere to manufacturer guidelines for moisture sensitivity levels prior to soldering.

Crystals Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 49.152 MHz reference is required in space-constrained designs. The 20pF load capacitance must match the oscillator circuit design parameters. Consider the ±30ppm stability rating for environmental variations between -40°C and +85°C. The low ESR of 40 Ohms supports efficient oscillation startup in compatible driver circuits.

Crystals Part Context

This part belongs to the FA-238 series of high-stability ceramic surface-mount crystals from EPSON Timing Devices. The series offers various frequencies within the 16.0000 to 50.0000 MHz range. The FA-238 form factor provides a compact footprint suitable for modern consumer electronics and industrial control systems requiring reliable timing references.

Crystals Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes require matching 49.152 MHz frequency, 20pF load capacitance, 40 Ohm ESR, and 3.2x2.5mm SMD package. Verify equivalent stability ratings and operating temperature ranges. Cross-reference with other manufacturers' HC-49 or similar SMD crystal families only if electrical parameters are identical.
