Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix MR against official datasheets to confirm the exact stability and tolerance specifications, as variations exist within the PBRC series. Confirm availability status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors, as this part number may be subject to end-of-life restrictions or discontinuation notices. Ensure the selected variant matches the required thermal and electrical parameters for the target application environment.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when a cost-effective alternative to quartz crystals is required for moderate precision applications. The integrated capacitor eliminates the need for external load capacitors, reducing board space and assembly complexity. Ensure the system voltage does not exceed the 5 VDC rating and that the operating temperature range aligns with the -40°C to +85°C specification.

Resonators Part Context

This component belongs to the PBRC-GR and PBRC-MR series of ceramic resonators from KYOCERA AVX. These devices are engineered to replace traditional quartz crystals in applications where slightly lower stability is acceptable in exchange for lower cost and easier integration. The series offers various frequency options and package sizes to accommodate different design constraints.

Resonators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include PBRC20.00HR50X000 and PBRC20.00GR50X000, provided the stability and tolerance requirements match the design needs. Verify pin compatibility and physical dimensions before substitution.
