QT216G-24.000MEDQ-T

Overview

The QT216G-24.000MEDQ-T is a surface-mount quartz crystal resonator manufactured by TXC Corporation and distributed under the QST brand. It operates at a fundamental frequency of 24 MHz with a load capacitance of 10 pF. The component exhibits a frequency tolerance of ±10 ppm and overall frequency stability of ±20 ppm across an operating temperature range of -20°C to +70°C. It utilizes a compact 4-SMD, no-lead package with body dimensions measuring 2.0 mm in length, 1.6 mm in width, and 0.6 mm in height.

Feature Summary

• Compact 2.0x1.6 mm SMD footprint for space-constrained designs
• High frequency stability of ±20 ppm over industrial temperature range
• Precise frequency tolerance of ±10 ppm for accurate timing
• Low profile 0.6 mm height suitable for thin electronic assemblies

Applications

• Microcontroller clock sources
• Communication module timing references
• Consumer electronics internal clocks
• Industrial control system oscillators

Procurement Notes

Verify manufacturer part number alignment between TXC Corporation specifications and QST distribution listings. Confirm package type matches 4-SMD no-lead requirements. Validate temperature range specifications against application environmental constraints. Ensure load capacitance parameters match circuit design requirements before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when precise 24 MHz timing is required within limited board space. Consider the -20°C to +70°C operating range for standard commercial applications. Verify that the 10 pF load capacitance aligns with the host oscillator circuit design. Evaluate the ±20 ppm stability requirement against system timing accuracy needs.

Part Context

This crystal belongs to the QT216G series of surface-mount resonators designed for general-purpose timing applications. The series offers various frequency options within a standardized small outline package format. These components serve as primary clock sources for digital circuits requiring stable frequency references without the complexity of active oscillators.

Replacement Considerations

QT216G-24.000MAAB-T offers similar 24 MHz operation but differs in stability specifications and packaging details. Cross-reference electrical parameters carefully before substitution. Verify mechanical compatibility and thermal performance characteristics match original design requirements.
