Overview

The KC2520K24.0000C10E00 is a 24 MHz surface-mount CMOS clock oscillator featuring a compact 2.5mm x 2.0mm footprint. It supports a wide supply voltage range from 1.6V to 3.63V and includes a standby function for power management in battery-operated systems. This crystal-based resonator provides a stable clock source with a frequency tolerance of +/-50ppm.

Why Choose This Part

This oscillator offers a wide operating voltage range that accommodates 1.8V, 2.5V, and 3.3V logic levels without additional level shifting. Its small 2520 SMD package saves significant PCB real estate compared to standard 3225 or 5032 sizes.

Applications

Microcontroller Clocking
Provides a precise 24 MHz reference for high-speed MCUs and application processors.
USB Peripherals
Functions as a stable timing source for USB-enabled devices requiring standard 24 MHz clocking.
Battery-Powered Electronics
Utilizes the standby (power down) function to minimize current draw when the system is inactive.
Industrial Control Modules
Serves as a reliable system heartbeat in space-constrained industrial monitoring equipment.

Getting Started

Integrate this component by placing it near the target IC clock input with a 0.01uF to 0.1uF bypass capacitor between VCC and GND. Ensure the standby pin (Pin 1) is pulled high for active operation or tied to a GPIO for software-controlled power management.
