AB-13.560MANH-T Crystal Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AB-13.560MANH-T is a 13.56 MHz surface mount crystal manufactured by TXC CORPORATION. This fundamental mode crystal operates across the industrial temperature range of -40°C to 125°C and is designed for applications requiring precise frequency reference at 13.56 MHz with tight frequency tolerance of ±30ppm. The part is actively produced and maintains AEC-Q200 automotive-grade qualification. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternative sourcing options when the primary part is unavailable or when design flexibility permits component selection from qualified alternative manufacturers.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the AB-13.560MANH-T is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Frequency: 13.56 MHz (exact match required)
• Frequency Tolerance: ±30ppm (exact match required)
• ESR: 80 Ohms (exact match required)
• Operating Mode: Fundamental (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 125°C (exact match required)
• Package Type: 4-SMD, No Lead (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (exact match required)
• AEC-Q200 Compliance: Required for automotive applications

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Load Capacitance: Variation permitted within design circuit tolerance (main part 15pF; substitute 12pF represents acceptable variance for equivalent circuit operation)
• Physical Dimensions: Variation permitted provided package classification remains 4-SMD, No Lead
• Packaging Format: Variation permitted (Tape & Reel to Cut Tape conversion acceptable for procurement)
• RoHS Compliance Status: Both RoHS3 and RoHS Compliant acceptable

The EB2532YA12-13.560M TR from Ecliptek qualifies as a substitute based on matching all mandatory parameters while permitting load capacitance variation from 15pF to 12pF.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part Selection (AB-13.560MANH-T): Select the AB-13.560MANH-T when TXC CORPORATION supply is available and packaging format as Tape & Reel is required for automated assembly processes. This part maintains active production status and full AEC-Q200 automotive qualification.

Substitute Part Selection (EB2532YA12-13.560M TR): The EB2532YA12-13.560M TR from Ecliptek is qualified as a direct substitute when the primary part is unavailable. This substitute maintains identical frequency, tolerance, ESR, operating mode, temperature range, and AEC-Q200 compliance. The load capacitance difference (12pF versus 15pF) is within acceptable design variance for equivalent circuit operation. The substitute is supplied in Cut Tape packaging format; conversion to Tape & Reel format may be required depending on assembly equipment specifications. Both parts maintain unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1) and comply with applicable RoHS regulations.

Compliance Verification: Both parts satisfy AEC-Q200 automotive-grade requirements and maintain RoHS compliance status. Selection between primary and substitute parts does not compromise regulatory or quality certifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the EB2532YA12-13.560M TR be used as a direct replacement for the AB-13.560MANH-T?

A: Yes. The EB2532YA12-13.560M TR qualifies as a direct substitute. Both parts operate at 13.56 MHz with ±30ppm frequency tolerance, 80 Ohms ESR, fundamental operating mode, and -40°C to 125°C temperature range. Both maintain AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and 4-SMD, No Lead package configuration. The load capacitance difference (12pF versus 15pF) represents acceptable design variance.

Q: What is the significance of the load capacitance difference between 15pF and 12pF?

A: Load capacitance specifies the external capacitive load for which the crystal frequency is calibrated. The 3pF difference between these parts falls within typical design tolerance margins for crystal oscillator circuits. Circuit design must accommodate the substitute part's 12pF load capacitance specification; no additional component modifications are required for equivalent electrical performance.

Q: Are there packaging format differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The AB-13.560MANH-T is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while the EB2532YA12-13.560M TR is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. Both formats contain identical components; packaging format selection depends on assembly equipment compatibility. Tape & Reel format is standard for high-volume automated assembly; Cut Tape format is suitable for lower-volume or manual assembly processes.

Q: Do both parts meet automotive quality standards?

A: Yes. Both the AB-13.560MANH-T and EB2532YA12-13.560M TR maintain AEC-Q200 automotive-grade qualification. Selection of either part does not compromise automotive application requirements.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these crystals?

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. These parts do not require special moisture control during storage, handling, or assembly processes.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The AB-13.560MANH-T is RoHS Compliant, and the EB2532YA12-13.560M TR is ROHS3 Compliant. Both meet applicable RoHS regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and use.
