RO3164C

Overview

The RFMi RO3164C is a surface-mount ceramic resonator designed for wireless applications. It operates at a center frequency of 868.350 MHz with a frequency stability of 32 ppb and a tolerance of ±200 kHz. The component utilizes SAW technology and features an 8-SMD, No Lead package measuring 5.00mm x 5.00mm. It supports an operating supply voltage of 12 VDC and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Utilizes Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) technology for high-frequency precision
• Provides stable performance across the specified temperature range
• Designed for surface mount equipment integration

Applications

• Wireless communication devices
• Digital signal processing circuits
• Frequency reference modules

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific RoHS compliance status, as sources indicate ROHS3 compliance. Confirm the exact frequency tolerance requirements against the ±200 kHz specification. Ensure the 12 VDC operating voltage aligns with the target circuit design. Validate the 8-SMD package dimensions for PCB layout compatibility.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 868.350 MHz reference is required in compact wireless designs. The 32 ppb stability suits applications demanding tight frequency control. Consider the 5x5mm footprint for space-constrained layouts. Evaluate the -40°C to +85°C range against environmental conditions.

Part Context
