CPPC4-A3B6-60.0TS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The CPPC4-A3B6-60.0TS is a 60 MHz XO (Standard) CMOS oscillator manufactured by Cardinal Components Inc., designed for through-hole mounting in 8-DIP packages. This part operates at 5V with enable/disable functionality and is specified for industrial temperature ranges (-55°C to 125°C). The product is currently obsolete, making identification of equivalent and substitute parts essential for system redesign, legacy support, and procurement planning.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CPPC4-A3B6-60.0TS is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Frequency Match: 60 MHz (exact match required)
• Output Logic Family: CMOS or HCMOS/TTL compatible output
• Supply Voltage: 5V operation
• Enable/Disable Function: Required for power management
• Package Compatibility: 8-DIP through-hole configuration with 4 leads
• Physical Dimensions: 0.520" L x 0.520" W footprint compatibility
• Mounting Type: Through-hole technology

The MXO45HST-3I-60M000000 from CTS-Frequency Controls meets these substitution criteria. While it provides HCMOS/TTL output (compared to CMOS), this represents a compatible logic family upgrade. The part maintains identical frequency, supply voltage, enable/disable functionality, and package footprint. Physical dimensions are equivalent, and the through-hole mounting is preserved.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MXO45HST-3I-60M000000 is a direct functional substitute for the obsolete CPPC4-A3B6-60.0TS based on the following engineering criteria:

Compliance & Availability: The substitute is an active product with current manufacturing status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. Both parts maintain RoHS compliance (RoHS Compliant vs. ROHS3 Compliant), meeting environmental regulatory requirements.

Electrical Compatibility: Both oscillators operate at identical 60 MHz frequency with 5V supply and enable/disable control. The HCMOS/TTL output of the substitute is compatible with CMOS input receivers, making it suitable for legacy circuit integration.

Physical Compatibility: Identical footprint dimensions (0.520" x 0.520") and through-hole 8-DIP package ensure direct PCB mounting compatibility. The substitute's lower seated height (0.240" vs. 0.256") provides additional clearance margin.

Performance Trade-offs: The substitute offers tighter frequency stability (±50ppm vs. ±100ppm), which improves system timing accuracy. However, the operating temperature range is narrower (-40°C to 85°C vs. -55°C to 125°C), requiring verification for applications requiring extended industrial temperature operation. Maximum supply current increases from 45mA to 60mA, while disable current decreases to 10µA, improving power management efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MXO45HST-3I-60M000000 directly replace the CPPC4-A3B6-60.0TS without circuit modifications?

A: Yes, for most applications. Both parts share identical frequency (60 MHz), supply voltage (5V), package footprint, and enable/disable functionality. The HCMOS/TTL output is compatible with standard CMOS input receivers. However, verify that your circuit's operating temperature requirements fall within -40°C to 85°C, as the substitute has a narrower temperature range than the original.

Q: What is the difference between CMOS and HCMOS/TTL output?

A: CMOS and HCMOS are both low-power logic families with similar voltage thresholds and drive capabilities. TTL compatibility indicates the part can interface with TTL logic circuits. For 5V systems, HCMOS/TTL output is functionally compatible with CMOS input receivers.

Q: Does the substitute's higher frequency stability (±50ppm vs. ±100ppm) affect my application?

A: Tighter frequency stability improves timing accuracy and reduces clock jitter. This is beneficial for most applications. If your system was designed to tolerate ±100ppm, the ±50ppm specification of the substitute provides additional margin and improved performance.

Q: The substitute draws 60mA maximum current versus 45mA for the original. Is this a concern?

A: Verify that your 5V power supply can deliver the additional 15mA current. For most modern power supplies, this increase is negligible. The substitute's lower disable current (10µA vs. 50µA) provides better power efficiency during standby operation.

Q: Are there any PCB layout considerations when switching to the MXO45HST-3I-60M000000?

A: The identical footprint and lower seated height (0.240" vs. 0.256") mean no PCB layout changes are required. The lower profile may provide additional clearance for components mounted above the oscillator.

Q: What is the MSL (Moisture Sensitivity Level) rating, and does it matter?

A: Both parts have MSL 1 (Unlimited), meaning they are not moisture-sensitive and require no special handling or baking procedures before soldering. This simplifies procurement and assembly processes.
