Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the 7M48000050 is determined by strict alignment of critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part 425F22A048M0000 qualifies based on the following criteria:

Critical Parameters (Must Match):

• Frequency: 48 MHz (exact match required)
• Frequency Stability: ±20ppm (exact match required)
• Load Capacitance: 10pF (exact match required)
• Package Type: 4-SMD, No Lead (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (exact match required)

Compliance Parameters (Must Meet or Exceed):

• Operating Temperature Range: -20°C ~ 70°C (substitute meets requirement)
• RoHS Status: RoHS Compliant (substitute is ROHS3 Compliant, exceeds requirement)
• MSL Rating: 1 (Unlimited) (substitute matches requirement)

The substitute part 425F22A048M0000 manufactured by CTS-Frequency Controls satisfies all mandatory substitution criteria and maintains equivalent functional performance within the specified operating envelope.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 7M48000050 and 425F22A048M0000 maintain Active product status with current manufacturing support. Selection between these parts should be based on the following engineering considerations:

7M48000050 (TXC CORPORATION):

• Standard footprint dimensions (3.20mm x 2.50mm) suitable for conventional PCB layouts
• Established supply chain with 1054 units in current inventory
• RoHS Compliant certification meets standard regulatory requirements

425F22A048M0000 (CTS-Frequency Controls):

• Compact footprint (2.50mm x 2.00mm) with lower profile (0.65mm) for space-constrained applications
• Enhanced inventory availability with 4057 units in stock
• ROHS3 Compliant certification exceeds baseline RoHS requirements
• Specified ESR of 60 Ohms provides additional circuit design parameter

Both parts satisfy identical electrical specifications and operating temperature requirements. The substitute part offers physical advantages in applications requiring reduced board space or lower component height. Selection should prioritize existing PCB design constraints and supply chain preferences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 425F22A048M0000 be used as a direct replacement for 7M48000050 in existing designs?

A: Yes, provided the PCB layout accommodates the smaller footprint (2.50mm x 2.00mm versus 3.20mm x 2.50mm). The electrical specifications are equivalent, and the lower profile (0.65mm versus 0.80mm) presents no functional incompatibility. PCB pad layout verification is required before implementation.

Q: What is the significance of the ESR specification listed for the CTS part?

A: The ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) of 60 Ohms for the 425F22A048M0000 is a circuit design parameter that affects oscillator startup characteristics and power consumption. This specification is not provided for the 7M48000050 in the available data. Both parts operate within the same frequency stability and load capacitance parameters required for standard 48 MHz applications.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: The 425F22A048M0000 carries ROHS3 Compliant certification, which represents an enhanced compliance standard compared to the standard RoHS Compliant rating of the 7M48000050. Both parts are REACH Unaffected and classified as EAR99 for export purposes. Both maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings.

Q: What packaging format differences exist?

A: The 7M48000050 is supplied in standard packaging format. The 425F22A048M0000 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for high-volume surface mount assembly operations. This packaging difference does not affect component functionality but may influence procurement and handling procedures.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the full -20°C to 70°C operating temperature range?

A: Yes, both the 7M48000050 and 425F22A048M0000 are specified for operation across the identical -20°C to 70°C temperature range. Frequency stability of ±20ppm is maintained throughout this operating envelope for both parts.
