CTS-Frequency Controls 416F320X2CAT 32 MHz Crystal Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CTS-Frequency Controls 416F320X2CAT is a 32 MHz fundamental mode crystal oscillator in 4-SMD, No Lead surface mount packaging. This part operates at ±15ppm frequency tolerance with 10pF load capacitance and 80 Ohms equivalent series resistance, designed for applications requiring precise frequency control in compact form factors. The 416F320X2CAT is discontinued at DiGi Electronics, necessitating identification of equivalent and substitute parts from the active CTS-Frequency Controls 416 series to maintain design compatibility and supply chain continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution within the CTS-Frequency Controls 416 series is determined by the following critical parameters: frequency (32 MHz), frequency tolerance (±15ppm), operating mode (Fundamental), package type (4-SMD, No Lead), physical dimensions (0.063" L x 0.047" W), operating temperature range (-20°C to 70°C), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected).

Load capacitance (10pF, 8pF, or 12pF) and ESR (80 Ohms) are secondary parameters that define specific substitute relationships. Parts with identical load capacitance and ESR values are classified as parametric equivalents. Parts with different load capacitance values but matching all other critical parameters are classified as similar substitutes, suitable for applications where the load capacitance specification permits variation within the 8pF to 12pF range.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For direct replacement of the discontinued 416F320X2CAT, select 416F320X2CAR or 416F320XXCAR. Both parts are active products with identical electrical specifications (32 MHz, ±15ppm tolerance, 10pF load capacitance, 80 Ohms ESR) and physical packaging. The 416F320X2CAR is available in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging with 1104 units in stock. The 416F320XXCAR is also available in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging with 1003 units in stock and offers frequency stability of ±15ppm.

For applications where load capacitance specification permits variation, 416F320X2CKR (8pF) and 416F320X2CLR (12pF) are active alternatives within the same 416 series. Both maintain 32 MHz frequency, ±15ppm tolerance, 80 Ohms ESR, and identical physical dimensions. All substitute parts comply with ROHS3 and REACH requirements with MSL 1 rating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 416F320X2CKR (8pF) be used as a direct replacement for 416F320X2CAT (10pF)?

A: 416F320X2CKR differs in load capacitance specification (8pF versus 10pF). Substitution is valid only if the circuit design accommodates 8pF load capacitance. Frequency, tolerance, ESR, package, and operating temperature remain identical.

Q: What is the difference between 416F320X2CAR and 416F320XXCAR?

A: Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical frequency (32 MHz), tolerance (±15ppm), load capacitance (10pF), ESR (80 Ohms), and packaging. The primary difference is product designation within the CTS-Frequency Controls 416 series. Both are active products suitable for direct replacement of 416F320X2CAT.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts (416F320X2CAR, 416F320XXCAR, 416F320X2CKR, 416F320X2CLR) are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, matching the compliance status of the original 416F320X2CAT.

Q: What is the significance of packaging designation (CAT versus CAR versus CKR versus CLR)?

A: The suffix designates packaging format and load capacitance specification. CAT and CAR indicate 10pF load capacitance; CKR indicates 8pF; CLR indicates 12pF. The TR designation indicates Tape & Reel packaging for automated assembly.

Q: Can 416F320X2CLR (12pF) replace 416F320X2CAT (10pF) in all applications?

A: 416F320X2CLR differs in load capacitance (12pF versus 10pF). Substitution is valid only if circuit design accommodates 12pF load capacitance. All other electrical and physical parameters remain identical.
