Description
The YSX531SL 8 MHz Crystal is a high-precision, surface-mount (SMD) quartz resonator housed in a 4-pad package. Operating at 8 MHz, this crystal provides a robust and reliable mid-range clock frequency ideal for a wide variety of embedded systems, microcontrollers, and digital logic circuits where a balance between processing speed and power efficiency is required.
The 4-pad design includes two active pins and two grounded pins, which significantly improves signal integrity by providing superior shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and reducing ground-path noise. This makes it a preferred choice for designs where noise performance is critical. With an ultra-tight 10 PPM frequency tolerance, this crystal ensures exceptional timing accuracy and minimal clock drift, making it suitable for professional industrial and communication applications.
Key Features
- 4-Pad Grounding: Enhanced signal shielding reduces EMI and improves clock stability compared to 2-pad variants.
- Precision Timing: 10 PPM frequency tolerance delivers the accuracy needed for sensitive digital systems.
- High Reliability: 8 MHz nominal frequency offers a stable foundation for microprocessors and digital peripherals.
- SMD Efficiency: Surface-mount configuration is ideal for compact PCB designs and automated assembly processes.
