SMD crystals feature improved temperature behavior, lower frequency tolerance
Murata Electronics has developed the XRCGB-F1S series crystals. It provides improved temperature characteristics and lower frequency tolerance (+-10ppm). Using a silicon conductive paste in the construction process, we are able to achieve a reduction in temperature variation characteristics across the temperature range. Additionally, the new -F1S series achieves better performance characteristics after reflow soldering. The new […]
SMD Piezo sounder boasts louder output in a small footprint
Murata Electronics has newly developed the PKMCS0909E48H0-R1 SMD Piezo Sounder at 4.8 KHz which is a new and improved model from the current SMD sounder (PKMCS0909E4000-R1). The new sounder uses the same 9mm x 9mm footprint, is 1mm taller, uses new materials, operates at 800 Hz higher in frequency, and boosts the sound pressure level […]
