Quartz Resonator Packages
Looking through a drawer of crystals recently, I thought I ought to have a list of crystal packages next to the drawers so's to identify what's there. Paper catalogues of the major component distributors will have illustrations of packages showing dimensions but I didn't find an all-encompassing drawing so I turned to the internet. A search for quartz crystal packages finds page after page of links about healing, cooking, football etc etc, until I realised I should be searching on quartz resonator packages, and downloaded several pages from the Euroquartz catalogue.
To get that to one usable document I edited them into one, which I attach here in case it may help anyone else. Continuing to sort through the drawer I found one which is not listed there, sitting between the sizes of UM1 and HC49. Does anyone know what this package is called?

Re: Quartz Resonator Packages
HC25? No, maybe not on 2nd thoughts. There are HC33 and many others, would need dimensions to figure it out really.

Re: Quartz Resonator Packages
Good suggestion, but there seem to a few variations - see QuartSlab
I should have given some dimensions - one gets lazy at times Height 9.8mm, body width 8.7, flange width 9.3, body thickness 2.7

Re: Quartz Resonator Packages
Try the big yellow ITT/ STC components book from the 70's/ 80's
It is a goldmine of package outline or all sorts of components and connectors Ed |
