Overview
VXM1-9003-12M0000000TR from Vectron International is a fundamental-mode quartz crystal resonator operating at 12.000 MHz with ±10 ppm frequency tolerance, ±100 ppm stability over -40 °C to +85 °C, and 12 pF load capacitance - used as a precision timing reference in microcontroller clock trees and serial communication interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the VXM1-9003-12M0000000TR datasheet, VXM1-9003-12M0000000TR pinout, VXM1-9003-12M0000000TR application, or VXM1-9003-12M0000000TR equivalent, key selection criteria include temperature stability grade, ESR (≤100 Ω at 12 MHz), RoHS-compliant Au/Ni termination, MSL 1 reflow compatibility, and 5.0 × 3.2 mm SMD package footprint.
Technical Context
This 2-pad surface-mount crystal operates in fundamental mode at 12.000 MHz with specified drive level ≤100 µW and shunt capacitance ≤5 pF. Its frequency accuracy is referenced to 25 °C and validated across -40 °C to +85 °C per MIL-STD-883 environmental test conditions.
The device uses AT-cut quartz blank with vacuum-sealed ceramic package and gold-plated nickel terminations. Aging is limited to ±5 ppm/year at 25 °C, and insulation resistance exceeds 500 MΩ - ensuring long-term timing integrity in industrial control and automotive body electronics.

Its MSL 1 rating confirms unlimited floor life and standard reflow profile suitability.
What is the operating temperature range and frequency stability of VXM1-9003-12M0000000TR?
VXM1-9003-12M0000000TR has an operating temperature range of –40 °C to +85 °C and frequency stability of ±100 ppm over that range. This is indicated by the '9' in position 2 of the part number (per Ordering Information: '9' = ±100 ppm over –40 °C to +85 °C) and verified in Table 1 under "Stability Over TOP".
What is the maximum equivalent series resistance (ESR) for VXM1-9003-12M0000000TR at 12 MHz?
The maximum ESR for VXM1-9003-12M0000000TR at 12.000 MHz is 100 Ω. This is specified in Table 1 under "Equivalent Series Resistance", where the row "Crystal Frequency 8.000MHz–12.000MHz" lists ESR ≤100 Ω - a critical parameter for ensuring reliable oscillation with low-power oscillator ICs.
