What the ECS-2200BX-240 is and why it matters
It drives both HCMOS and TTL logic families from the same output stage, so a single oscillator footprint serves mixed-signal boards without level-shifting the reference clock — useful on boards with legacy TTL glue logic alongside modern CMOS microcontrollers.
Package and thermal fit for through-hole assembly
The 8-pin half-size metal can (0.520" × 0.520", 5.40 mm seated height) mounts in a standard 0.300-inch DIP socket or solders directly into a through-hole PCB — the metal can provides inherent EMI shielding for the crystal element inside, which matters in noisy motor-drive or power-electronics environments. Commercial temperature grade (0°C to 70°C) places this squarely in office-equipment and indoor-instrument territory — it is not the part for an engine-bay ECU or outdoor enclosure without thermal management, but for lab benches, point-of-sale terminals, and panel-mount controllers the grade is appropriate without derating concern. Single 5V supply rail — the oscillator runs directly off the same rail as TTL logic, so no additional regulated domain is needed for the clock; the 5V input current ceiling of 25 mA is modest and easily supported by a standard LDO or switching rail.
Sourced through independent distribution to order against your BOM quantity; availability and current lead time confirmed at RFQ. The bulk packaging and through-hole form factor mean it is a straightforward line to stock for mid-volume production runs — the metal can and crystal resonator inside are not exotic to manufacture.
