In a bid to facilitate design projects involving crystal resonators, Raltron now offers a Crystal Resonator Engineering Design Kit comprising more than sixty combinations of frequencies, load capacitances, and package sizes that are recommended for use with many of the popular ICs on the market.
The crystal resonator design kit includes frequencies from 8 MHz to 50 MHz in ceramic package sizes from 5032 to 1210, and 32.768 kHz in 3215 to 1210 size packages. A printed card behind each sample pocket allows the user to connect to a special website providing the Raltron part number, part description, full specs, environmental data, an RFQ form, and a connection to distributors who carry the item in inventory. Users can also request additional samples or parameter modifications to existing kit items to obtain an optimum specification for a given design.
