Complies with Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS)

The RO2103 is a true one-port, surface-acoustic-wave (SAW) resonator in a low-profile TO39 case. It pro-

vides reliable, fundamental-mode, quartz frequency stabilization of fixed-frequency transmitters operating at

418.0 MHz. The RO2103 is designed specifically for remote-control and wireless security transmitters oper-

ating in the United Kingdom under dTI MPT 1340 and in the USA under FCC Part 15.

This equivalent RLC model approximates resonator performance near the reso-

static (nonmotional) capacitance between pin1 and pin 2 measured at low fre-

quency (10 MHz) with a capacitance meter. The measurement includes case

parasitic capacitance with a floating case. For usual grounded case applica-

tions (with ground connected to either pin 1 or pin 2 and to the case), add
