HWZT-8.00RS

Resonators Overview

The Abracon HWZT-8.00RS is a through-hole ceramic resonator operating at a standard frequency of 8.00 MHz. It features a low profile radial package with two formed leads, measuring 5.5 mm in length and 3 mm in width. The component exhibits a typical impedance of 25 Ohms and supports a load capacitance of 36 pF. It operates within a temperature range of -25°C to +85°C and complies with RoHS standards.

Resonators Feature Summary

• Low profile radial leaded construction for compact PCB integration
• Cost-effective timing solution compared to quartz crystals
• Designed for general-purpose microcontroller clock applications

Resonators Applications

• Microcontroller clock sources
• Consumer electronics timing circuits
• General purpose digital logic synchronization

Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify current availability status as the HWZT-MD series has been discontinued. Confirm that the RS suffix variant remains active production. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints and verify that the 36 pF load capacitance matches the target circuit design requirements before finalizing procurement.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when cost reduction is prioritized over high precision. Suitable for applications where ±0.3% frequency stability is acceptable. Ensure the oscillator circuit can drive the 25 Ohm impedance. Verify that the -25°C to +85°C operating range meets environmental specifications.

Resonators Part Context

This part belongs to the HWZT-RS series of low-profile ceramic resonators. It serves as a direct physical replacement for older through-hole resonators while offering improved mounting profiles. The series targets consumer markets requiring reliable, low-cost timing references without the complexity of crystal oscillators.

Resonators Replacement Considerations

No official substitute part numbers are documented by the manufacturer. Designers should evaluate equivalent 8 MHz ceramic resonators from other vendors, ensuring matching impedance, load capacitance, and package dimensions.
