Crystals in HC-49/U and HC-50/U

General application

Microcomputers, audio/video-applications, wireless phones, communication devices

Features

Cases HC 49-50 series are highly reliable,
hermetically sealed by seam welding.

Assembly, taping

Cases HC 49-50 series are designed for through hole mount, but it can by designed for SMD too.

Crystals in SMD modification can by delivered in tapes wound on reels, suitable for automatic assembly.
