Adafruit 16 MHz Crystal + 20pF capacitors

Keep your microcontroller functioning at its best with this precision timing crystal. Operating at 16.000 MHz, it features a compact HC49/US 'short style' package, ensuring compatibility with breadboards and ease of use in devices demanding an external crystal. Included are two 20pF capacitors to assist in optimal integration.

With a tolerance of 30PPM and stability of 50PPM, this crystal is suitable for applications requiring high precision, such as USB timing and long-term time-keeping. It's also ideal for RF/PLL/VCO configurations. Usage involves connecting the pins to XTAL-in and XTAL-out on your circuit, with each capacitor bridging a pin to ground.

Refer to your microcontroller's datasheet to determine if additional components, like a 1 Megaohm resistor, are necessary for your setup. This timing crystal is engineered for reliability and precision in various electronic projects.
