Product Overview
Description
The YXC-2016-32M delivers 32MHz precision timing in an ultra-compact 2.0×1.6mm package, making it ideal for wearable devices, TWS earbuds, and other space-constrained applications where every square millimeter counts.
Despite its small size, this crystal maintains excellent electrical characteristics with ±10ppm frequency stability and low ESR of ≤80Ω. The optimized electrode design ensures reliable oscillation even with the reduced crystal mass in this miniature package.
The 0.45mm profile enables ultra-thin product designs. This crystal is particularly popular in Bluetooth LE applications where 32MHz is the standard frequency for Nordic, Silicon Labs, and other BLE SoCs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this crystal suitable for Bluetooth Low Energy applications?
Yes, 32MHz is the standard frequency for many BLE SoCs including Nordic nRF52 series and Silicon Labs EFR32. The ±10ppm stability meets BLE requirements. Check your specific SoC's load capacitance requirements.
What are the assembly considerations for this small package?
Use 4-mil stencil thickness with 1:1 aperture opening. Ensure your PCB has proper solder mask defined pads. The small size requires precise pick-and-place equipment. Avoid hand soldering - use reflow only.
Can I use this crystal with a standard 8-bit microcontroller?
Yes, but verify your MCU can drive the 80Ω ESR. Some older 8-bit MCUs have weaker oscillator drivers designed for larger crystals with lower ESR. Check the MCU datasheet's crystal driver specifications.
How does the small package size affect shock resistance?
The 2016 package has excellent shock resistance due to its low mass. YXC rates it for 5000g mechanical shock, same as larger packages. The ceramic package and optimized electrode design maintain reliability.
What is the typical current consumption with this crystal?
Current depends on your MCU and load capacitors. Typical RTC-mode current is 1-3μA. For active clocking, expect 100-300μA depending on MCU and frequency. Use the lowest drive strength setting that ensures reliable oscillation.
