Description
The HC-49/SM 4 MHz is a classic, robust quartz crystal resonator housed in a low-profile, surface-mount (SMD) package. With a base frequency of 4 MHz, this crystal is widely used in legacy microcontrollers, low-power embedded systems, and timing applications where a stable, slower clock rate is required to manage power consumption or accommodate specific hardware timing constraints.
The HC-49/SM series is highly regarded for its mechanical reliability and cost-effectiveness. Its standard 11.4mm x 4.7mm footprint makes it easy to integrate into a variety of PCB designs. Whether you are working on industrial controllers, consumer electronics, or basic clock generation for digital logic, this pack of 5 provides a reliable foundation for multiple projects or spare inventory for prototyping.
