Murata recommends a land pattern with a pad size of 2.5mm x 1.25mm, with a non-solder mask defined (NSMD) pad and a solder mask opening of 2.2mm x 0.9mm.
To prevent moisture-related issues, store the 23S120C in a dry environment (less than 30% RH) and follow the recommended baking procedure before reflow soldering. Use a nitrogen-filled packaging or dry packing to minimize moisture absorption.
The maximum reflow temperature for the 23S120C is 260°C, with a peak temperature not exceeding 240°C for more than 10 seconds.
Yes, the 23S120C is designed to withstand vibrations up to 10G (10 Hz to 2 kHz) and can be used in high-vibration environments. However, ensure proper mounting and soldering to prevent mechanical stress.
To troubleshoot issues with the 23S120C's crystal oscillation, check the crystal's resonant frequency, ensure proper PCB layout and grounding, and verify the oscillator circuit's component values and biasing.
