NCS1S2403SC - Murata Electronics

NCS1S2403SC Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for the NCS1S2403SC?
  Murata recommends a symmetrical layout with the oscillator at the center, and the power supply and ground planes should be separated from the oscillator pins to minimize noise coupling.
• How do I ensure the oscillator starts up reliably?
  Ensure the power supply voltage is stable and within the recommended range, and add a 10nF to 100nF capacitor between the VDD and GND pins to filter out noise.
• What is the maximum frequency deviation due to temperature changes?
  The frequency deviation is typically ±100 ppm over the operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, but this can vary depending on the specific application and environment.
• Can I use the NCS1S2403SC in a high-vibration environment?
  Yes, the NCS1S2403SC is designed to withstand vibrations up to 10G, but it's recommended to follow Murata's guidelines for mounting and soldering to ensure reliability.
• How do I troubleshoot issues with the oscillator not oscillating?
  Check the power supply voltage, ensure the oscillator pins are not shorted, and verify the PCB layout meets Murata's recommendations. If issues persist, consult Murata's application notes or contact their support team.
