32kHz Xtals

Hi all,



Where is the best/cheapest place to obtain the above in the UK?



I've tried all the usual suspects, but they have nothing that low.



TIA

Try one of the crystal manufacturers, like IQD, if you want to buy in quantity.

Hi,

One has to be carefull with some of the cheap 32kHz crystals. Most seem to be 12pF series capacitance, while most of the RTCs require ones with 6pF series capacitance to get any sort of lobg term accuracy.

RS Components should have available.

Try searching for 32768Hz rather than 32kHz.

A handful is about 1,000 pieces. ;-)
