Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The AX5PAF1-500.0000T qualifies as a parametric equivalent to the AX5PAF3-500.0000T based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. Both parts maintain identical specifications across all critical selection criteria: 500 MHz frequency, LVPECL output, 3.3V supply voltage, Enable/Disable function, ±20ppm frequency stability, -40°C to 85°C operating temperature, 110mA maximum supply current, and 8-SMD No Lead package with identical physical dimensions. The substitution is valid because all allowed electrical parameters, mechanical dimensions, and compliance certifications are equivalent between the two part numbers within the ClearClock™ AX5 series.

Parameter Comparison
