QT216S-26.000METV-T

Overview

The QT216S-26.000METV-T is a fundamental-mode quartz crystal resonator manufactured by QST, designed for surface-mount applications. It operates at a nominal frequency of 26 MHz with a load capacitance of 8 pF. The component features a compact 4-SMD, No Lead package measuring 2.0 x 1.6 mm. It provides a frequency stability of ±10 ppm and a frequency tolerance of ±10 ppm over an operating temperature range of -30°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Fundamental-mode quartz crystal construction
• Compact 4-SMD no-lead surface-mount package
• Tight frequency stability across industrial temperature range

Applications

• General-purpose timing circuits
• Space-constrained electronic designs
• Microcontroller clock sources

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix METV-T against official QST documentation to confirm the exact electrical parameters and compliance status. Ensure the required load capacitance matches the circuit design requirements before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 26 MHz fundamental-mode crystal is required in a small form factor. Consider the ±10 ppm stability requirement and the 8 pF load capacitance compatibility with the host oscillator circuit.

Part Context

This part belongs to the QT216S series of SMD crystals from QST Corporation Limited. The series offers various frequencies within a standardized 2.0 x 1.6 mm footprint, catering to timing needs in consumer and industrial electronics.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 26 MHz crystals in the same 4-SMD package with matching 8 pF load capacitance and ±10 ppm stability, such as variants from other manufacturers offering equivalent dimensions.
