What should engineers check when specifying the IQXC-240?
Select the crystal against the requirements of the oscillator circuit and the intended operating environment. Key considerations include:
- Frequency and load capacitance: Match the required frequency and crystal load capacitance to the IC manufacturer’s recommendations and the circuit’s effective load.
- Frequency tolerance and stability: Assess initial tolerance and temperature stability separately against the system frequency-error budget.
- Operating temperature: Confirm that the selected part meets the full temperature range of the application.
- Mechanical and assembly requirements: Check the package dimensions, shock requirements and tape-and-reel information against the design and manufacturing process.
IQD’s Application Support team can help you assess the specification and discuss your design-in requirements.
