Electrical Connections

The SAW resonator is bidirectional and may be in-

stalled with either orientation. The two terminals

are interchangeable and unnumbered. The callout

NC indicates no internal connection. The NC pads

assist with mechanical positioning and stability.

External grounding of the NC pads is recommend-

ed to help reduce parasitic capacitance in the cir-

cuit.

Typical Circuit Board

Land Pattern

The circuit board land pattern shown below is one possible design. The op-

timum land pattern is dependent on the circuit board assembly process

which varies by manufacturer. The distance between adjacent land edges

should be at a maximum to minimize parasitic capacitance. Trace lengths

from terminal lands to other components should be short and wide to mini-

mize parasitic series inductances.

Case Design

The case material is black alumina with contrasting symbolization. All pads

are nominally centered with respect to the base and consist of 40 to

70 microinches electroless gold on 60-350 micorinches electroless nickel.
