Instructions for Use

1. Soldering:

   • Use a soldering iron with a temperature not exceeding 350°C.
   • Soldering time should not exceed 3 seconds per joint.
   • Ensure that the solder joints are clean and free of flux residues.

2. Handling:

   • Handle the SMK1625 with care to avoid mechanical stress or damage.
   • Use proper ESD protection measures to prevent damage from static electricity.

3. Circuit Design:

   • Connect the crystal oscillator to the appropriate pins of the microcontroller or circuit as specified in the datasheet.
   • Use the recommended load capacitance (12 pF) to ensure stable operation.
   • Ensure that the supply voltage is within the specified range (1.8V to 3.3V).

4. Storage:

   • Store the SMK1625 in a dry, cool place to prevent moisture damage.
   • Avoid exposure to high humidity and extreme temperatures.

5. Testing:

   • Before final assembly, test the oscillator using a frequency counter to verify its operating frequency.
   • Check for any visual defects or damage before installation.

6. Troubleshooting:

   • If the oscillator does not start, check the power supply and connections.
   • Verify that the load capacitance is correctly placed and has the correct value.
   • Ensure that the microcontroller or circuit is configured to use the external crystal oscillator.
