  • Product Overview

    The SEIKO EPSON FC-12M 32.7680KA-A3 is a low-profile surface mount device (SMD) crystal unit designed for compact electronic devices. With a nominal frequency of 32.768kHz, it features ultra-small dimensionslow power consumption, and a wide operating temperature range, making it ideal for space- and reliability-critical applications such as smart cards, wearables, and IoT sensors. It provides stable and precise clock signals to ensure efficient system operation.

    Key Features

    • Extremely Compact Design: Measures just 2.05×1.2×0.6mm, saving significant PCB space for miniaturized devices.
    • Ultra-Low Power Consumption: Max drive level of 0.5μW extends battery life, making it perfect for portable electronics.
    • Wide Temperature Adaptability: Operates from -40°C to +85°C, maintaining stable performance in harsh environments with temperature fluctuations.
    • High-Precision Frequency Control: Standard frequency tolerance of ±20×10⁻⁶ (25°C, 0.1μW drive), meeting strict requirements for accurate timing devices.
    • Environmental and Reliability CertificationsLead-free and EU RoHS compliant, with ISO 9001 and ISO/TS 16949 certifications for high-reliability applications like automotive electronics.
