The **MHO+62FCG-R** is a high-precision, industrial-grade **Crystal Oscillator (XO)**. It is primarily used in telecommunications, networking, and data processing equipment where stable timing is critical. --- ### 1. Key Technical Specifications Below is a breakdown of the typical characteristics found in the MHO series (specifically the 62FCG-R variant): | Feature | Specification | Description | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Component Type** | Crystal Oscillator (XO) | Provides a steady clock signal. | | **Frequency Range** | 1.0 MHz to 150 MHz | The specific frequency depends on the exact sub-coding. | | **Supply Voltage** | 5.0V (Standard) | Operates on standard digital power rails. | | **Output Type** | HCMOS / TTL | Compatible with most standard logic circuits. | | **Package Style** | 14-pin DIP (DIL) | Through-hole mounting (Full size). | | **Stability** | ±25ppm to ±100ppm | High precision over temperature ranges. | | **RoHS Status** | Compliant (-R suffix) | Lead-free and environmentally friendly. | --- ### 2. Physical Design and Pinout The "MHO" series typically utilizes a metal "Can" package which provides excellent Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) shielding. #### Standard Pin Configuration (14-pin DIP): 1. **Pin 1:** No Connect (NC) or Tri-state Control. 2. **Pin 7:** Case Ground (GND). 3. **Pin 8:** Output Signal (The clock pulse). 4. **Pin 14:** Supply Voltage ($V_{cc}$). --- ### 3. Application Areas This part is commonly found in older industrial hardware and specific modern telecom infrastructure due to its reliability: * **Networking:** Routers, switches, and modems. * **Measurement:** Oscilloscopes and frequency counters. * **Embedded Systems:** Providing a master clock for Microcontrollers (MCUs) or FPGAs. * **Legacy Systems:** Replacement parts for older PCB designs using through-hole technology. --- ### 4. Decoding the Part Number * **MHO:** Series designation (typically refers to the 14-pin DIP package). * **+:** Usually indicates a lead-free/RoHS modification in modern catalogs. * **62:** Often refers to specific stability or temperature range codes (e.g., 0°C to 70°C). * **F:** Frequency stability indicator (e.g., ±100ppm). * **CG:** Commercial grade/Output type (HCMOS/TTL). * **-R:** RoHS Compliant.
