LFXTAL081612

Overview

LFXTAL081612 is a quartz crystal resonator from the IQXC-26 series manufactured by IQD Frequency Products. It operates at a fundamental frequency of 30 MHz with a load capacitance of 8 pF. The component provides a frequency tolerance of ±20 ppm and stability of ±10 ppm. Designed for surface-mount applications, it utilizes a 4-SMD, no-lead package measuring 1.60 mm in length and 1.20 mm in width. The unit supports a maximum installation height of 0.045 mm and functions within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Fundamental mode operation ensures stable oscillation at 30 MHz
• Compact 4-SMD footprint suitable for high-density PCB layouts
• Temperature compensation allows reliable performance across industrial ranges

Applications

• High-speed digital clock generation circuits
• Microcontroller system timing references
• Communication interface synchronization modules

Procurement Notes

Verify current availability status as supply constraints may affect lead times. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix matches the required packaging format. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints before finalizing procurement orders. Check for any recent product change notices regarding manufacturing updates.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 30 MHz reference is required for space-constrained designs. The 8 pF load capacitance must match the circuit design requirements. Verify that the ±20 ppm tolerance meets the system's timing accuracy specifications. Consider the SMD package type for automated assembly processes.

Part Context

The LFXTAL081612 belongs to the IQXC-26 series of miniature quartz crystals. This series focuses on providing precise frequency control in small form factors. It serves as a passive frequency-determining element in oscillator circuits, replacing larger through-hole alternatives in modern electronics.

Replacement Considerations

The 416WF30012IKR from CTS-Frequency Controls is documented as a parameter-equivalent substitute. Both parts share identical electrical characteristics including 30 MHz frequency, 8 pF load capacitance, and similar package dimensions.
