LFXTAL003169BULK

Overview

The LFXTAL003169BULK is a quartz crystal resonator manufactured by IQD Frequency Products, designed for surface-mount applications. It operates at a fundamental frequency of 10 MHz with a frequency tolerance of ±30 ppm and stability of ±50 ppm. The component features a load capacitance of 30 pF and an equivalent series resistance (ESR) suitable for standard oscillator circuits. Packaged in a bulk format, it utilizes the HC-49/US form factor, measuring 11.40 mm in length, 3.80 mm in width, and up to 4.30 mm in height. It supports base harmonic operation within a temperature range of -10°C to +60°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides precise timing signals via piezoelectric resonance at 10 MHz
• Ensures frequency stability within specified tolerance limits for reliable clock generation
• Utilizes a robust HC-49/US surface-mount package for secure board integration

Applications

• General-purpose clock signal generation in electronic circuits
• Microcontroller and processor system timing references
• Communication equipment requiring stable frequency sources

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and packaging configuration when sourcing, as availability may vary between bulk reels and cut tapes. Confirm that the HC-49/US footprint matches the target PCB design constraints. Ensure the operating temperature range meets the environmental requirements of the final assembly. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet for any updates on compliance or mechanical dimensions prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 10 MHz fundamental mode crystal is required with ±30 ppm tolerance. The HC-49/US package offers a balance of performance and ease of handling compared to smaller SMD variants. Consider the 30 pF load capacitance requirement to ensure proper circuit oscillation. Evaluate the thermal stability against the application's operational environment to confirm suitability for commercial-grade usage.

Part Context

This part belongs to the IQD Frequency Products quartz crystal lineup, which includes various packages and frequencies. It is distinct from their oscillator products like the LFSPXO series, providing only the passive resonant element rather than an active output signal. The product line serves diverse sectors including consumer electronics and industrial control systems.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 10 MHz frequency, HC-49/US package, and similar electrical parameters such as load capacitance and ESR. Verify compatibility with existing oscillator circuit designs before swapping manufacturers.
