The **MHO+34FCG-R** is a specific part number typically associated with **MHO+ Series Clock Oscillators** manufactured by **MtronPTI**. These components are essential in digital circuits for providing a stable timing signal (clock pulse). --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The part number follows a specific nomenclature. Below are the primary electronic characteristics associated with this series: | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Component Type** | XO (Crystal Oscillator) | | **Output Type** | HCMOS / TTL Compatible | | **Supply Voltage ($V_{dd}$)** | +5.0V DC (Standard for MHO+ series) | | **Package Style** | 14-pin DIP (Full size), Metal Can | | **Stability** | Usually ±100ppm, ±50ppm, or ±25ppm (depending on suffix) | | **Frequency Range** | Typically 1.0 MHz to 150.0 MHz | | **Operating Temperature** | 0°C to +70°C (Standard Commercial) | --- ### 2. Pin Configuration Since this is a 14-pin DIP package (often with only 4 physical pins actually used), the pinout generally follows this standard industry layout: | Pin Number | Function | Description | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **1** | N/C or Tri-state | No connection or Output Enable/Disable | | **7** | GND | Case Ground | | **8** | Output | The generated clock frequency signal | | **14** | $V_{dd}$ | Positive Power Supply (+5V) | --- ### 3. Key Features * **Hermetically Sealed:** The metal "can" package is resistance-welded to protect the quartz crystal from moisture and atmospheric contaminants, ensuring long-term frequency stability. * **Thru-Hole Mounting:** Designed for traditional PCB mounting or insertion into sockets. * **RoHS Compliant:** The "-R" suffix at the end of the part number indicates that the part is **RoHS compliant** (lead-free). --- ### 4. Common Applications These oscillators are used in legacy and industrial hardware where 5V logic is still prevalent: 1. **Microprocessor Clocks:** Providing the heartbeat for CPUs and MCUs. 2. **Network Hardware:** Timing for Ethernet controllers or older telecommunications gear. 3. **Industrial Controllers:** Timing for PLCs and embedded industrial motherboards. 4. **Test & Measurement:** Internal reference clocks for signal generators. ---
