Product details

Load capacitance and ESR — the drive-level pair that matters on the bench

The ECS-270-8-36-RWN-TR: Rated with an 8 pF load capacitance, the crystal expects the MCU or oscillator circuit to present that value across its XTAL pins — a mismatch shifts the actual frequency out of tolerance. The ESR ceiling is 60 Ohms, which sets the maximum drive level the circuit can supply before the crystal risks mechanical degradation; a lower ESR crystal at the same frequency tolerates more drive power from a high-gain oscillator stage.

±15 ppm — what that means inside a timing budget

Frequency tolerance and stability are both ±15 ppm, which stacks directly into the overall timing budget.

Frequently asked questions

What series does the ECS-270-8-36-RWN-TR belong to?

It is part of the ECX-2236 series from ECS Inc., a 2.5 mm by 2.0 mm surface-mount crystal family typically used in wireless modules, microcontrollers, and timing-sensitive consumer and industrial designs.

What is the ECS-270-8-36-RWN-TR used for?

This is a fundamental-mode 27 MHz crystal intended for the clock or reference input of MCUs, wireless SoCs (BLE, Wi-Fi, sub-GHz), and other digital circuits that derive their timing from an external crystal. The 8 pF load capacitance and industrial temperature grade suit it for IoT edge nodes, industrial controls, and embedded modules that operate in unconditioned environments.
