12 MHz Crystal with Two 20pF Capacitors

Keep your microcontroller ticking with this 12.000 MHz timing crystal. It comes in an HC49/US 'short style' standard package, making it breadboard friendly and easy to use with any microcontroller or device that requires an external crystal.

This product includes two 20pF capacitors for optimal operation with the crystal.

• Crystal frequency: 12.000 MHz
• Tolerance: 30 PPM
• Stability: 50 PPM, suitable for high precision needs like USB timing, long-term time-keeping, RF/PLL/VCO driving
• Smooth HC49/US 'short style' standard package
• Breadboard friendly
• Includes two 20pF capacitors

To use, connect the two crystal pins to XTAL-in and XTAL-out on your circuit (the package is symmetric so either pin can be used), and connect one capacitor from each crystal pin to ground. Check your microcontroller datasheet for additional required components such as a 1 Megaohm resistor.
