CAUTION: Electrostatic Sensitive Device. Observe precautions for handling.
NOTES:
1.
Frequency aging is the change in f
C
with time and is specified at +65 °C or
less. Aging may exceed the specification for prolonged temperatures
above +65 °C. Typically, aging is greatest the first year after manufacture,
decreasing in subsequent years.
The center frequency, f
C
, is measured at the minimum insertion loss point,
IL
MIN
, with the resonator in the 50
test system (VSWR
1.2:1). The
shunt inductance, L
TEST
, is tuned for parallel resonance with C
O
at f
C
.
Typically, f
OSCILLATOR
or f
TRANSMITTER
is approximately equal to the
resonator f
C
.
One or more of the following United States patents apply: 4,454,488 and
4,616,197.
Typically, equipment utilizing this device requires emissions testing and
government approval, which is the responsibility of the equipment
manufacturer.
Unless noted otherwise, case temperature T
C
= +25 ± 2 °C.

The design, manufacturing process, and specifications of this device are
subject to change without notice.
Derived mathematically from one or more of the following directly
measured parameters: f
C
, IL, 3 dB bandwidth, f
C
versus T
C
, and C
O
.
Turnover temperature, T
O
, is the temperature of maximum (or turnover)
frequency, f
O
. The nominal frequency at any case temperature, T
C
, may be
calculated from: f = f
O
[1 - FTC (T

-T

)

]. Typically
oscillator
T
O
is
approximately equal to the specified
resonator
T
O
.
This equivalent RLC model approximates resonator performance near the
resonant frequency and is provided for reference only. The capacitance C
O
is the static (nonmotional) capacitance between the two terminals
measured at low frequency (10 MHz) with a capacitance meter. The
measurement includes parasitic capacitance with "NC” pads unconnected.
Case parasitic capacitance is approximately 0.05 pF. Transducer parallel
capacitance can by calculated as: C
P
C
O
- 0.05 pF.

Electrical Connections
The SAW resonator is bidirectional and may be
installed with either orientation. The two terminals
are interchangeable and unnumbered. The callout
NC indicates no internal connection. The NC pads
assist with mechanical positioning and stability.
External grounding of the NC pads is
recommended to help reduce parasitic
capacitance in the circuit.
