Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix or variant code against the official IQD datasheet to confirm exact electrical tolerances and temperature range specifications. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required package dimensions and lead finish. Cross-reference with authorized distributors to confirm current availability and compliance with RoHS directives before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 38.4 MHz reference is required in a minimal footprint SMD package. Consider the 10 pF load capacitance requirement for circuit matching. Evaluate thermal stability needs against the commercial grade operating range. Compare ESR values with other series options if power consumption is a critical constraint for the target application design.
