QT216S-24.000METV-T

Overview

The QT216S-24.000METV-T is a quartz crystal resonator manufactured by QST, operating at a fundamental frequency of 24 MHz. It features a frequency tolerance and stability of ±10 ppm at 25°C and across the industrial temperature range of -30°C to +85°C. The component utilizes a load capacitance of 12 pF and exhibits an equivalent series resistance (ESR) of 100 Ohms. It is housed in a compact 2.0 mm x 1.6 mm surface-mount package with a height of 0.5 mm, designed for SMD/SMT mounting applications requiring precise timing signals.

Feature Summary

• Provides high-frequency precision with ±10 ppm stability across industrial temperatures
• Compact 2.0x1.6mm surface-mount footprint suitable for space-constrained designs
• Optimized for low power consumption with specified excitation levels

Applications

• Microcontroller clock sources
• Communication module timing references
• Digital signal processing circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix METV-T against official QST documentation to confirm the exact electrical parameters, particularly the ±10 ppm stability and 12 pF load capacitance. Ensure the procurement channel provides valid RoHS compliance documentation. Cross-reference the datasheet for the recommended soldering profile and storage conditions to maintain component integrity during assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 24 MHz reference with tight ±10 ppm stability is required within a small 2.0x1.6mm package. Consider the 100 Ohm ESR and 12 pF load capacitance requirements of the host oscillator circuit. Evaluate the -30°C to +85°C operating range against environmental conditions. Compare against similar QST QT216S variants if different stability or package dimensions are needed.

Part Context

This part belongs to the QST QT216S series of miniature quartz crystals. The series offers various frequency options and stability grades in standardized surface-mount packages. The QT216S-24.000METV-T specifically addresses applications needing reliable 24 MHz timing with industrial-grade temperature performance in a compact form factor.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 24 MHz crystals with identical 2.0x1.6mm dimensions, 12 pF load capacitance, and ±10 ppm stability. Verify ESR compatibility and mounting style before substitution.
