SMD Crystal oscillator
Does anyone have a recommendation for a 32768Hz SMD package crystal for clocking the FV1? Any special reason to use the cylinder style crystal?
Re: SMD Crystal oscillator
I have used many SMD oscillators before but the cylinder ones are 1/3rd the price so I stick with the cylinder ones.

Re: SMD Crystal oscillator
Yeah I've done some looking around and the cylinder is much cheaper. Wonder why..
The reason I ask is that I'm looking to have my boards with all components PCBA assembled at a boardhouse.

Re: SMD Crystal oscillator
I've been doing SMD plug-in cards. All parts are SMD except the crystals, mostly due to price, but the circuit is also touchy about the crystal types, so I figured I would stick with an available watch crystal and it's worked fine.

Re: SMD Crystal oscillator
I see. Guess I'll stick around with the cylinder crystal. Not that much extra work...
Re: SMD Crystal oscillator
How about Abracon's new line of SMT crystals? I've spec'ed one for my current project. Footprint is a tiny bit larger than 1206.

Re: SMD Crystal oscillator
we tried several, they had problems with reliability and washing in ultrasonic bath, so we are using micro controller clock instead of crystals.
The bonus is variable sample rate. 48kHz, 22 kHz, etc
