LFXTAL003260

Overview

The LFXTAL003260 is a surface-mount quartz crystal oscillator manufactured by IQD Frequency Products. It operates at a nominal frequency of 3.6864 MHz with a load capacitance of 16 pF. The component features a frequency tolerance of ±30 ppm and a total frequency stability of ±50 ppm. It is housed in an HC-49/4HSMX package measuring 11.4 mm x 4.9 mm. The device supports a working temperature range from -10°C to +60°C.

Feature Summary

• Surface-mount design for automated assembly
• HC-49/4HSMX package format
• Quartz resonator technology

Applications

• Clock signal generation in digital circuits
• Microcontroller timing references
• Communication interface synchronization

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix (e.g., REEL) against official datasheets to confirm packaging type, as standard part numbers may not indicate reel or bulk configuration. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors prior to ordering. Ensure the selected variant matches the required surface-mount footprint and lead time constraints for production schedules.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 3.6864 MHz reference is required for surface-mount applications. Verify that the circuit design accommodates the 16 pF load capacitance requirement. Check if the ±30 ppm tolerance meets system clock accuracy needs. Consider the HC-49/4HSMX dimensions for PCB layout clearance and ensure the operating temperature range aligns with the environmental conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the IQD Frequency Products quartz crystal lineup, specifically designed for general-purpose timing applications. The HC-49/4HSMX series provides a compact alternative to through-hole crystals while maintaining similar electrical characteristics. These components are widely used in consumer electronics and industrial control systems requiring stable clock sources.
