IQD Frequency Products recommends a symmetrical layout with the crystal centered on the PCB, and the traces to the oscillator circuit should be as short as possible to minimize noise and radiation.
Handle the crystal by the edges or the package, avoid touching the metal surfaces, and use an anti-static wrist strap or mat to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage.
Use a soft brush and a mild detergent solution to clean the crystal, and avoid using ultrasonic cleaning or harsh chemicals that can damage the crystal or its packaging.
Store the crystals in their original packaging, away from direct sunlight, moisture, and extreme temperatures, and avoid stacking or bending the crystals during storage.
The expected lifespan of the LFXTAL003074 crystal is typically 10 to 20 years, depending on the operating conditions, storage, and handling practices.
