The **MHO+65FAG-R** is a specific part number for a high-performance **Crystal Oscillator**, typically manufactured by companies like **MtronPTI**. These components are critical in electronics for generating precise clock signals. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications The part number follows a specific nomenclature that defines its electrical and physical characteristics. | Parameter | Specification (Typical) | | :--- | :--- | | **Component Type** | Crystal Oscillator (XO) | | **Package / Case** | 14-pin DIP (Full Size) | | **Frequency Range** | Typically 1.0 MHz to 150.0 MHz (Check specific suffix) | | **Supply Voltage (Vcc)** | +5.0V DC | | **Output Type** | CMOS / TTL Compatible | | **Stability** | ±50 ppm or ±100 ppm (Depending on grade) | | **Operating Temp** | -40°C to +85°C (Industrial Grade) | | **RoHS Status** | Compliant (Indicated by the "R" suffix) | --- ### 2. Breakdown of the Part Number While manufacturers vary slightly, the code usually breaks down as follows: 1. **MHO**: Series designation (Full-size 14-pin DIP metal package). 2. **+**: Often indicates a lead-free/RoHS compliant process. 3. **6**: Represents the Voltage (e.g., 6 usually denotes 5.0V in this series). 4. **5**: Represents the Frequency Stability (e.g., 5 = ±50ppm). 5. **FAG**: Temperature range and Symmetry/Duty Cycle code. 6. **R**: RoHS Compliant. --- ### 3. Pinout Configuration For the 14-pin DIP package style used by the MHO series, only four pins are typically functional: | Pin Number | Function | Description | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **1** | NC or E/D | No Connection or Output Enable/Disable | | **7** | GND | Ground / Case Ground | | **8** | Output | The generated clock signal | | **14** | Vcc | +5.0V Power Supply | --- ### 4. Common Applications * **Legacy Computing:** Providing master clocks for older microprocessors. * **Industrial Control:** Timing for PLC (Programmable Logic Controllers). * **Communication Equipment:** Synchronization in networking hardware. * **Test & Measurement:** Stable frequency reference for lab equipment. --- ### 5. Key Features * **Hermetically Sealed:** The metal "can" package protects the quartz crystal from humidity and atmospheric contaminants. * **Low Jitter:** Designed for high-speed digital circuits requiring clean signal transitions. * **Through-Hole Mounting:** Ideal for robust mechanical connections in industrial environments.
