• Designed for surface mount integration into compact electronic assemblies
• Operates reliably across industrial temperature ranges for harsh environments

Applications

• LoRa and LoRaWAN node implementations
• Sub-GHz communication modules for IoT sensors
• Local oscillator circuits requiring stable reference frequencies

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure correct tolerance and packaging specifications. Confirm that the selected variant matches the required impedance and frequency accuracy for the target application circuit design before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring a stable 868.35 MHz reference for European Sub-GHz ISM band operations. Ensure the host circuit can accommodate the specified load capacitance and that the thermal environment remains within the rated operational limits for long-term frequency stability.

Part Context

This SAW resonator belongs to NextGen Components' portfolio of passive RF filters and resonators. It serves as a critical frequency-determining element in wireless transceivers, replacing bulkier crystal solutions while maintaining high Q-factor performance necessary for efficient signal transmission in constrained power budgets.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the SBR868M350S024 from the same manufacturer family. Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameter equivalence before swapping components in existing designs.
