ECS-200-20-1 Crystal Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ECS-200-20-1 is a 20 MHz through-hole crystal oscillator in HC-49/U package with 20pF load capacitance and 20 Ohms equivalent series resistance. This component is classified as Not For New Designs, indicating it has been superseded in the manufacturer's product line. Finding equivalent substitute parts is necessary for legacy system maintenance, repair operations, and continued production support where original components are unavailable or inventory is depleted.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ECS-200-20-1 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Frequency: 20 MHz (exact match required)
• Frequency Tolerance: ±30ppm (exact match required)
• Load Capacitance: 20pF (exact match required)
• ESR: 20 Ohms (exact match required)
• Operating Mode: Fundamental (exact match required)
• Package / Case: HC-49/U (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -10°C ~ 70°C (exact match required)

Parts meeting all these criteria are classified as parametric equivalents and may be used as direct substitutes in applications originally designed for the ECS-200-20-1.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ECS-200-20-1X is a parametric equivalent substitute for the ECS-200-20-1. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product lifecycle status: the ECS-200-20-1 is designated Not For New Designs, while the ECS-200-20-1X maintains Active status in the manufacturer's current product line.

An additional consideration is regulatory compliance. The ECS-200-20-1X is ROHS3 Compliant, whereas the ECS-200-20-1 is RoHS non-compliant. For applications subject to RoHS requirements, the ECS-200-20-1X is the appropriate selection. Both parts maintain identical REACH and ECCN classifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ECS-200-20-1X be used as a direct replacement for the ECS-200-20-1?
