QT216G-24.000MEEE-T

Overview

The QT216G-24.000MEEE-T is a quartz crystal oscillator manufactured by QST, designed for surface-mount applications. It operates at a nominal frequency of 24 MHz and utilizes a glass-sealed package construction to ensure environmental stability. The component features a compact footprint measuring 2.0 mm in length and 1.6 mm in width, with a four-terminal no-lead SMD configuration. This specific model variant is characterized by its sealed design, which provides protection against moisture and contaminants while maintaining precise frequency output for electronic circuits.

Feature Summary

• Glass-sealed package construction for enhanced environmental protection
• Compact 2.0x1.6 mm surface-mount form factor
• Four-terminal no-lead SMD mounting style

Applications

• General-purpose clock generation in consumer electronics
• Timing reference sources for microcontroller systems
• Signal processing circuitry requiring stable frequency references

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation carefully, as this part number appears under both QST and TXC Corporation listings across different distributors. Confirm the exact package sealing type matches project requirements. Ensure the ordering suffix corresponds to the intended frequency tolerance and load capacitance specifications before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small-footprint, hermetically sealed quartz crystal is required for 24 MHz applications. The glass-sealed design offers superior stability compared to unsealed ceramic alternatives. Consider the 2.0x1.6 mm dimensions for space-constrained PCB layouts where standard crystals do not fit.

Part Context

This component belongs to the QT216G series of quartz crystals, which are characterized by their small size and glass-sealed construction. The series is widely used in portable devices and compact electronic modules where space efficiency and reliability are critical factors for system performance.
