Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ASFL-3.6864MHZ-EC-T is determined by the following critical parameters:

Frequency Match: The substitute part must operate at 3.6864 MHz to maintain system timing specifications and compatibility with dependent circuitry.

Manufacturer Consistency: Abracon LLC manufacture ensures design continuity, quality standards, and technical support alignment.

Compliance Alignment: Both the main part and substitute must maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status to satisfy regulatory and procurement requirements.

Moisture Sensitivity Level: MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification in both parts ensures equivalent handling and storage requirements.

Product Status Transition: The substitute part transitions from obsolete to active production status, providing long-term availability and supply chain stability.

The ASFL1-3.6864MHZ-EC-T qualifies as a direct substitute based on these parameters.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: ASFL1-3.6864MHZ-EC-T

The ASFL1-3.6864MHZ-EC-T is the recommended substitute for the obsolete ASFL-3.6864MHZ-EC-T. This selection is based on the following engineering criteria:

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying environmental and regulatory requirements without modification to procurement or assembly processes.

Production Status: The substitute part holds active production status with Abracon LLC, ensuring sustained availability, consistent quality, and ongoing technical support. The obsolete status of the main part creates supply chain risk that the active substitute eliminates.

Frequency Specification: Identical 3.6864 MHz frequency operation ensures direct functional compatibility with existing system designs and timing-dependent circuits.

Moisture Handling: Matching MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification confirms equivalent moisture sensitivity characteristics, requiring no changes to storage, handling, or packaging procedures.

Manufacturer Continuity: Single-source manufacture by Abracon LLC maintains design consistency, quality standards, and technical documentation alignment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ASFL1-3.6864MHZ-EC-T directly replace the ASFL-3.6864MHZ-EC-T in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts operate at 3.6864 MHz with identical compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH unaffected) and moisture sensitivity levels (MSL 1). The substitute part is manufactured by the same supplier and provides equivalent functional performance for timing applications.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The ASFL-3.6864MHZ-EC-T is classified as obsolete and no longer in active production. The ASFL1-3.6864MHZ-EC-T provides an active production alternative with sustained availability and supply chain stability.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The main part packaging is not specified in available documentation. The substitute part uses 4-SMD, No Lead surface mount packaging with dimensions of 5.00mm x 3.20mm and a maximum seated height of 1.30mm. Verify packaging compatibility with your PCB design and assembly specifications.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both the ASFL-3.6864MHZ-EC-T and ASFL1-3.6864MHZ-EC-T are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, satisfying equivalent regulatory and environmental standards.

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

A: Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification, indicating unlimited shelf life under normal storage conditions with no special moisture control requirements.

Q: Are there any electrical parameter differences I should consider?

A: The substitute part specifies 3.3V supply voltage, HCMOS/TTL output, ±50ppm frequency stability, and 15mA maximum supply current. The main part specifications for these parameters are not documented. Confirm these electrical characteristics align with your circuit requirements before implementation.
