NT2520SA-26.000000MHZ-A1

Overview

The NT2520SA-26.000000MHZ-A1 is a temperature-compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO) manufactured by NDK. It operates at a nominal frequency of 26 MHz with a clipped sine wave output. The device supports a supply voltage range of 2.4V to 3.3V and consumes a maximum current of 8mA. It features a frequency stability of ±0.5ppm over the operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The component is housed in a compact 4-SMD, no-lead package measuring 2.50mm x 2.00mm with a maximum height of 0.90mm.

Feature Summary

• Provides high-frequency stability of ±0.5ppm across industrial temperature ranges
• Features low power consumption suitable for battery-operated portable devices
• Supports standard CMOS-compatible interface levels
• Utilizes a compact surface-mount package for automated assembly

Applications

• Mobile phones and handheld communication devices
• Portable electronic equipment requiring precise timing
• Wireless data transmission modules
• Automotive electronics systems

Procurement Notes

Confirm the specific suffix A1 matches the required output waveform and tolerance specifications. Verify that the supply voltage requirements align with the target circuit design. Ensure the operating temperature range meets the environmental conditions of the intended application. Check for RoHS compliance status if restricted substances are a concern.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high stability is required within a small form factor. Compare against other TCXO series such as NT2016 or NT3225 based on size constraints. Evaluate power consumption against battery life requirements. Consider the clipping sine wave output compatibility with downstream logic circuits.

Part Context

This part belongs to the NT2520 series of temperature-compensated crystal oscillators from NDK. The series is designed for applications demanding stable clock signals in space-constrained environments. It complements other NDK products like the NZ2520SA family, offering superior frequency stability compared to standard crystals.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include parts from the same NT2520 series with adjusted frequencies or tolerances. Cross-reference with similar 2.5x2.0mm TCXOs from other manufacturers ensuring matching pinout and electrical characteristics.
