XRCGB26 hybrid crystal resonators
Murata has announced the addition of the XRCGB26 device to its XRCGB-M series of hybrid crystal resonators.
The device adds the nominal 26MHz frequency to the comprehensive range of frequencies already supported by the range.
The XRCGB26 has a frequency tolerance of less than +/-30ppm and an operating range from -30C to +85C with a frequency shift of +/-40ppm.
Frequency aging is less than +/-5ppm per year.
The XRCGB-M range is also said to benefit from a package size of 2.0 x 1.6 x 0.7mm, comparing favourably to its quartz crystal equivalents.
The series is available in frequencies of 24, 25, 16, 27, 27.12, 30, 33.86, 40 and 48MHz, with additional frequencies under development.
Murata's hybrid crystal resonator family features a quartz crystal element manufactured by Tokyo Denpa, alongside Murata's ceramic resonator technology in the same package, using Murata's production technology to create a device smaller and lower cost than a quartz crystal while maintaining the precision of quartz.
Murata's hybrid crystal resonators now all feature four connection pads on the base to make them a more direct replacement for quartz.
All Murata's hybrid crystal resonators are RoHS compliant.
