The component features a built-in capacitor structure and includes an integrated load capacitance of 10 pF. It is housed in a compact 3.2 mm x 1.3 mm package suitable for automated assembly processes. The device supports reflow soldering techniques and is intended for use in circuits requiring stable frequency generation within specified operational limits.

Resonators Feature Summary

• Built-in capacitor structure eliminates external components
• Reflow solderable construction for automated assembly
• Compact surface-mount footprint for space-constrained designs

Resonators Applications

• Microcontroller clock sources
• Communication module timing
• Consumer electronics oscillators

Resonators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific operating temperature range and qualification status against official datasheets before integration. Confirm availability through authorized distributors as supply chain conditions may vary. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB layout constraints regarding the 3.2 mm x 1.3 mm package dimensions. Cross-reference part numbers to avoid confusion with similar series variants.

Resonators Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 12 MHz reference is required with minimal external circuitry. The 10 pF internal load capacitance simplifies design compared to discrete crystals. Consider the ±0.5% tolerance for applications demanding tight frequency accuracy. Evaluate thermal requirements against the standard commercial grade specifications provided in the technical documentation.

Resonators Part Context

This part belongs to the PRQC series of ceramic chip resonators from KYOCERA AVX. These devices are engineered to replace traditional crystal assemblies by integrating necessary capacitive elements directly into the resonator body. The series offers a balance of performance and cost-effectiveness for mass-produced electronic goods requiring reliable frequency control.

Resonators Replacement Considerations

Consult official substitution lists for direct equivalents. Verify that alternative parts match the 12 MHz frequency, 10 pF load capacitance, and 3.2x1.3 mm package size. Ensure any substitute maintains the same tolerance and mounting characteristics.
