Quartz Resonator Packages
 
2 Attachment(s)
Looking through a drawer of crystals recently, I thought I ought to have a list of crystal packages next to the drawers so's to identify what's there. Paper catalogues of the major component distributors will have illustrations of packages showing dimensions but I didn't find an all-encompassing drawing so I turned to the internet. A search for quartz crystal packages finds page after page of links about healing, cooking, football etc etc, until I realised I should be searching on quartz resonator packages, and downloaded several pages from the Euroquartz catalogue.

To get that to one usable document I edited them into one, which I attach here in case it may help anyone else.

Continuing to sort through the drawer I found one which is not listed there, sitting between the sizes of UM1 and HC49. Does anyone know what this package is called?

HC25? No, maybe not on 2nd thoughts. There are HC33 and many others, would need dimensions to figure it out really.

Good suggestion, but there seem to a few variations - see QuartSlab

I should have given some dimensions - one gets lazy at times :-]
Height 9.8mm, body width 8.7, flange width 9.3, body thickness 2.7

Try the big yellow ITT/ STC components book from the 70's/ 80's

It is a goldmine of package outline or all sorts of components and connectors
