Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix 'EHV' against the manufacturer's current datasheet to confirm vibration specifications and load capacitance values. Ensure the ordering code matches the required frequency tolerance and temperature range for your specific application environment before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 10.368 MHz reference is required in a small SMD package. Consider the 8 pF load capacitance compatibility with your oscillator circuit design. Evaluate the ±30 ppm stability against your system's jitter requirements and ensure the operating temperature range aligns with your deployment conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the QT325G series of surface-mount crystals from QST. The series is characterized by its small form factor and reliability in portable applications. Variants within this family differ primarily in frequency, tolerance, and specific environmental ratings such as vibration resistance.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 10.368 MHz crystals in 3225 packages with similar electrical parameters. Verify equivalent load capacitance and ESR values to ensure circuit compatibility without redesign.
