QT216S-32.000MAAJ-T

Overview

The QT216S-32.000MAAJ-T is a surface-mount crystal oscillator from the QT216S series manufactured by TXC Corporation. It operates at a nominal frequency of 32MHz with a frequency tolerance and stability of ±30ppm. The component features a load capacitance of 18pF and is housed in a compact SMD package measuring 2mm x 1.6mm. It supports an operating temperature range starting from -20°C.

Feature Summary

• Compact 2.0mm x 1.6mm surface-mount design for space-constrained applications
• High frequency stability of ±30ppm across specified temperature ranges
• Optimized for low power consumption in portable electronic devices

Applications

• Mobile communication devices
• Consumer electronics timing circuits
• Industrial control systems requiring precise clock signals

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation, as this part number is associated with TXC Corporation despite the query brand. Confirm the specific suffix 'MAAJ' matches the required tolerance and packaging specifications. Ensure compatibility with standard reflow soldering profiles for 2mm x 1.6mm SMD crystals. Cross-reference the load capacitance of 18pF with circuit design requirements to maintain frequency accuracy.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a small form factor is critical alongside moderate frequency stability requirements. The 32MHz output is suitable for microcontroller clock sources. Consider the -20°C minimum operating temperature; if wider industrial ranges are needed, variants like MAHV may be more appropriate. Ensure the PCB layout accommodates the specific pad dimensions for reliable soldering.

Part Context

This crystal belongs to the QT216S series, which provides various frequency options in a standardized 2.0x1.6mm footprint. It serves as a fundamental timing element for digital circuits. Similar parts in the series include different frequencies such as 26MHz or 30MHz, maintaining consistent electrical characteristics while varying the resonant frequency.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include QT216S-32.000MAAQ-T and QT216S-32.000MAHC-T. These alternatives share the same package and general specifications but may differ in specific temperature stability ratings or manufacturing origin. Verify exact parameter alignment before substitution.
