Description
The HC49/U 8 MHz Crystal is a high-stability quartz resonator designed for fundamental frequency generation in digital circuits. Operating at a nominal frequency of 8 MHz, this crystal provides a robust and reliable clock source widely used for microcontrollers, embedded systems, and communication peripherals that require a mid-range clock speed for efficient processing.
Packaged in the industry-standard HC49/U through-hole enclosure, this unit is built for both physical durability and electrical precision. Its hermetically sealed construction ensures that the internal quartz element remains protected from moisture, oxidation, and other environmental contaminants, providing long-term frequency accuracy. Whether for prototyping or final production, this crystal is a foundational building block for consistent system performance.
