LFXTAL081608

Overview

The LFXTAL081608 is a quartz crystal from the IQXC-26 series manufactured by IQD Frequency Products. It operates at a nominal frequency of 24 MHz with a frequency tolerance of ±10 ppm and a load capacitance of 8 pF. The component features an equivalent series resistance (ESR) of 150 Ohms and utilizes a 4-SMD, No Lead package with dimensions of 1.6 mm x 1.2 mm.

Feature Summary

• Compact surface-mount design suitable for space-constrained applications
• High frequency stability with ±10 ppm tolerance
• Low profile package geometry for PCB integration

Applications

• General purpose clock generation circuits
• Microcontroller oscillator inputs
• Digital communication interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package variant and tolerance requirements against the official datasheet before procurement. Confirm that the 4-SMD No Lead footprint matches the target PCB layout. Ensure the 8 pF load capacitance aligns with the circuit design specifications to maintain accurate frequency performance.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small form factor is required alongside precise timing accuracy. The 24 MHz frequency is standard for many digital systems. Consider the 150 Ohm ESR value for driver strength compatibility. The IQXC-26 series offers a balance of size and electrical performance for modern electronics.
