AX3PAF3-100.0000T3 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AX3PAF3-100.0000T3 is a 100 MHz XO (Standard) LVPECL oscillator manufactured by Abracon LLC, part of the ClearClock™ AX3 series. This surface mount crystal oscillator operates at 3.3V with Enable/Disable functionality and is housed in a 6-SMD, No Lead package. The part is currently Active in product status with 1024 pieces in stock inventory. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications are required due to component availability, supply chain considerations, or design flexibility within the same functional category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the AX3PAF3-100.0000T3 are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional and mechanical compatibility:

• Frequency: 100 MHz (exact match required)
• Output Type: LVPECL (exact match required)
• Supply Voltage: 3.3V (exact match required)
• Function: Enable/Disable (exact match required)
• Frequency Stability: ±25ppm (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C (exact match required)
• Package Type: 6-SMD, No Lead (exact match required)
• Package Dimensions: 0.126" L x 0.098" W / 3.20mm x 2.50mm (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (exact match required)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (exact match required)

The identified substitute parts meet all these critical parameters and are therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the main part in applications requiring a 100 MHz LVPECL oscillator with 3.3V supply and Enable/Disable control.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three oscillators—AX3PAF3-100.0000T3 (Abracon LLC), CP3225-100.000-3.3-25-X-T-TR (Raltron Electronics), and SG3225EEN 100.000000M-CDGA3 (EPSON)—are Active products with ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status. Each part carries EAR99 ECCN classification and HTSUS code 8542.39.0001.

The Raltron CP3225-100.000-3.3-25-X-T-TR is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent with identical maximum supply current (50mA) and seated height of 0.047" (1.20mm). This part is available in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® packaging.

The EPSON SG3225EEN 100.000000M-CDGA3 is functionally equivalent with a maximum supply current of 60mA and seated height of 0.047" (1.20mm). This part is available in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. The higher maximum supply current specification does not affect compatibility in applications designed for the 50mA specification of the main part.

Selection between these parts should be based on packaging format requirements, supplier availability, and lead time considerations, as all three parts meet the electrical and mechanical specifications for 100 MHz LVPECL oscillator applications at 3.3V with Enable/Disable functionality.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the CP3225-100.000-3.3-25-X-T-TR be used as a direct replacement for the AX3PAF3-100.0000T3?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (100 MHz, LVPECL output, 3.3V supply, ±25ppm stability, -40°C ~ 85°C operating range, 50mA maximum supply current) and mechanical specifications (6-SMD No Lead package, 3.20mm x 2.50mm footprint, surface mount). The primary difference is packaging format: Raltron supplies in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel®, while Abracon uses standard packaging.

Q: Can the SG3225EEN 100.000000M-CDGA3 be used as a direct replacement for the AX3PAF3-100.0000T3?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically compatible. The EPSON part specifies a maximum supply current of 60mA compared to the Abracon part's 50mA. This specification difference does not prevent substitution; circuits designed for 50mA operation will function correctly with the EPSON part. The seated height is 0.047" (1.20mm) versus the Abracon part's 0.043" (1.10mm), a difference of 0.004" (0.10mm) that remains within typical PCB assembly tolerances.

Q: What are the critical parameters that must match for substitution?

A: Frequency (100 MHz), output type (LVPECL), supply voltage (3.3V), function (Enable/Disable), frequency stability (±25ppm), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C), package type (6-SMD No Lead), package footprint (3.20mm x 2.50mm), and mounting type (surface mount) must all match exactly. All three parts meet these requirements.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these substitute parts?

A: Yes. The Abracon AX3PAF3-100.0000T3 uses standard packaging. The Raltron CP3225-100.000-3.3-25-X-T-TR is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format. The EPSON SG3225EEN 100.000000M-CDGA3 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Packaging format does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility; selection depends on procurement and assembly requirements.

Q: Do all three parts have the same compliance certifications?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH Unaffected, classified as EAR99, and carry HTSUS code 8542.39.0001. All three have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). All three are currently Active products.
