AX3PBF3-100.0000 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AX3PBF3-100.0000 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 2.5V with enable/disable functionality, designed for applications requiring stable frequency generation with low voltage differential signaling output. The part is currently active in production with 730 pieces available in new original stock. Substitute parts may be required due to inventory constraints, packaging preferences, or supply chain considerations while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical performance.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The AX3PBF1-100.0000 qualifies as a parametric equivalent substitute for the AX3PBF3-100.0000 based on the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters (Identical):

• Frequency: 100 MHz
• Output Type: LVPECL
• Supply Voltage: 2.5V
• Frequency Stability: ±25ppm
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C
• Current - Supply (Max): 50mA
• Current - Supply (Disable) (Max): 10µA
• Function: Enable/Disable

Mechanical Parameters (Identical):

• Package / Case: 6-SMD, No Lead
• Size / Dimension: 0.126" L x 0.098" W (3.20mm x 2.50mm)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.043" (1.10mm)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount

Compliance Parameters (Identical):

• Series: ClearClock™ AX3
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)
• REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

Difference: The only distinction between these parts is the packaging format: AX3PBF3-100.0000 is supplied in standard packaging, while AX3PBF1-100.0000 is supplied in Strip packaging. This difference does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the AX3PBF3-100.0000 and AX3PBF1-100.0000 are active production parts from Abracon LLC with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and inventory availability:

AX3PBF3-100.0000 is suitable for applications where standard packaging is preferred or specified in procurement documentation. Current inventory: 730 pieces.

AX3PBF1-100.0000 is suitable for applications where Strip packaging is acceptable or preferred for automated assembly processes. Current inventory: 1076 pieces.

Both parts maintain full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH requirements. The MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) indicates no moisture sensitivity constraints for either part. Selection of either part will not compromise circuit performance, thermal characteristics, or regulatory compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AX3PBF1-100.0000 be used as a direct replacement for AX3PBF3-100.0000?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (Strip vs. standard). Pin configuration, frequency output, voltage requirements, and performance specifications are identical.

Q: Does packaging format affect circuit performance?

A: No. Packaging format affects only the delivery and handling method. Once the component is mounted on the PCB, electrical and thermal performance are identical regardless of whether it arrived in Strip or standard packaging.

Q: Are there any compatibility issues with PCB assembly equipment?

A: No compatibility issues exist. Both parts use the same 6-SMD, No Lead package with identical dimensions (3.20mm x 2.50mm x 1.10mm max height). Standard pick-and-place equipment can handle both packaging formats.

Q: What is the difference in HTSUS codes between these parts?

A: The HTSUS codes differ (8542.39.0001 vs. 8542.39.0060) due to packaging classification, not product classification. This affects tariff and customs documentation only and does not impact technical compatibility.

Q: Are both parts suitable for the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -40°C to 85°C with the same frequency stability of ±25ppm.

Q: Which part should be selected for high-volume production?

A: Selection should be based on assembly line requirements and packaging handling capabilities. Strip packaging (AX3PBF1-100.0000) is often preferred for automated assembly due to tape-and-reel format compatibility. Standard packaging (AX3PBF3-100.0000) may be preferred for manual assembly or specific procurement workflows.
