LFXTAL064296

Overview

The LFXTAL064296 is a surface-mount quartz crystal manufactured by IQD Frequency Products. It operates at a fundamental frequency of 16 MHz with a load capacitance of 8 pF. The component exhibits a frequency tolerance and stability of ±20 ppm and an equivalent series resistance (ESR) of 70 Ohms. It is housed in a compact 4-SMD, No Lead package designed for automated assembly processes.

Feature Summary

• Compact surface-mount footprint suitable for space-constrained circuit designs
• Fundamental mode operation providing stable timing reference signals
• Low equivalent series resistance for efficient oscillator circuit integration

Applications

• Microcontroller clock generation circuits
• Communication interface timing references
• General-purpose digital logic synchronization

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package variant and termination finish against the latest manufacturer datasheet to ensure compatibility with your PCB layout and soldering profile. Confirm that the 8 pF load capacitance matches your oscillator circuit requirements to maintain the specified ±20 ppm accuracy. Check for any recent part number revisions or lifecycle notices from IQD Frequency Products before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16 MHz timing source is required in a small surface-mount form factor. Ensure the target application can accommodate an 8 pF load capacitance requirement. Verify that the ±20 ppm stability meets the system's jitter and phase noise specifications. Consider the 70 Ohm ESR value when designing the feedback network for the host oscillator IC.

Part Context

This part belongs to the general quartz crystal portfolio offered by IQD Frequency Products, a subsidiary of Wurth Elektronik. IQD provides a wide range of frequency control solutions including crystals, oscillators, and resonators for industrial, consumer, and automotive markets. The LFXTAL series represents standard SMD quartz components used for basic clock generation tasks.

Replacement Considerations

No direct substitute part numbers are documented in the provided source material. Cross-reference with other 16 MHz, 8 pF, 4-SMD crystals only after verifying electrical parameters and mechanical dimensions match the original design constraints.
