Description

The HC49/S 4 MHz Crystal is a high-stability quartz resonator designed for reliable, low-frequency timing applications. Operating at a fundamental frequency of 4 MHz, this crystal is ideal for power-efficient microcontroller clocking, timers, and communication interfaces where lower clock speeds are preferred to reduce overall system power consumption.

Packaged in the popular HC49/S “low-profile” through-hole package, this component is designed for modern, space-constrained PCB assemblies. With a height of only 3.3 mm, it is significantly flatter than the traditional HC49/U package, making it an excellent choice for compact or thin-profile consumer electronic devices. Its hermetically sealed construction ensures long-term frequency accuracy by protecting the internal quartz element from environmental contaminants.
