LFXTAL085841

Overview

The LFXTAL085841 is a surface-mount quartz crystal from the IQXC-42 series, manufactured by IQD Frequency Products. It operates at a nominal frequency of 20MHz with a frequency tolerance of ±15ppm and frequency stability of ±50ppm. The component features a load capacitance of 10pF and an equivalent series resistance (ESR) of 120 Ohms. It utilizes a compact 4-SMD, No Lead package with body dimensions of 2.0mm x 1.6mm x 0.5mm.

Feature Summary

• Compact 0608 metric footprint for space-constrained designs
• High stability quartz resonator technology
• Surface-mount construction for automated assembly

Applications

• IoT device clocking
• Smart-home system timing
• Wearable electronics

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific revision status and lot traceability against the manufacturer's current production data sheet before finalizing procurement orders. Ensure that the receiving facility has appropriate ESD protection protocols in place, as miniature SMD crystals are sensitive to electrostatic discharge during handling and storage. Confirm packaging format requirements align with the supplier's standard shipping configurations.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 20MHz reference signal is required within strict spatial limitations due to its 0.5mm height profile. The ±15ppm initial tolerance suits general-purpose digital logic applications where extreme precision is not critical. Evaluate the 120 Ohm ESR against the oscillator circuit's drive level constraints to ensure stable operation without overdriving the crystal element.

Part Context

This part belongs to the IQXC-42 series, which provides miniature quartz crystals optimized for modern consumer and industrial electronics. The series emphasizes small form factors while maintaining reliable performance across standard operating temperature ranges. IQD Frequency Products integrates these components into broader frequency control solutions for global manufacturing sectors.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 20MHz crystals in the 2x1.6x0.5mm package with matching 10pF load capacitance and similar ESR values. Verify mechanical compatibility and electrical parameters such as frequency stability and drive level sensitivity before swapping components in existing designs.
