Technical Specifications

The AT-49 10.0000MHZ (16PF) crystal resonator is an AT-cut crystal, known for its excellent frequency stability over a wide temperature range. The 16 pF load capacitance is a crucial parameter that determines the correct oscillation frequency when used in a circuit. The crystal's frequency tolerance is typically ±30 ppm at room temperature, ensuring high accuracy. The operating temperature range generally spans from -20°C to +70°C, although specific parameters may vary depending on the KDS datasheet. The crystal’s aging is typically ±5 ppm per year. The ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) is a critical parameter for the oscillator circuit design, and for this crystal, it is typically under 80 ohms. The AT-49 package is designed for surface mounting and has small dimensions.

This crystal resonator is a vital component in many electronic devices, providing the timing accuracy needed for reliable operation. Its robust construction and precise frequency characteristics make it a preferred choice for engineers designing timing-critical applications. The specified load capacitance must be considered in the oscillator circuit design to ensure the crystal oscillates at its intended frequency.
