Description
The YSX530GA 14.31818 MHz Crystal is a high-precision, surface-mount (SMD) quartz resonator designed for demanding timing applications. The frequency 14.31818 MHz is a classic industry standard, historically chosen because it is an exact multiple of the NTSC color subcarrier frequency (3.579545 MHz × 4), making it essential for video processing, multimedia systems, and VGA clock generation in PCs and digital displays.
Packaged in a compact 2-pad SMD enclosure, this crystal is optimized for modern automated PCB assembly and reflow soldering processes. It features a highly precise 10 PPM frequency tolerance, ensuring excellent stability for time-sensitive digital logic. Whether utilized in complex signal processing or general-purpose microcontroller clocking, the YSX530GA provides the reliable reference frequency required for high-fidelity electronic performance.
