5 MHz Quartz Crystal Oscillator for Consumer Electronics from Japan

A precision quartz crystal oscillator designed for operating frequencies between 1-5 MHz, used in microcontrollers and timing circuits of consumer devices like remote controls and toys. It falls under HTS 8541.60.00.30 as a mounted piezoelectric crystal specifically quartz with frequency exceeding 1 MHz but not exceeding 5 MHz. These are essential for stable clock signals in low-speed digital applications.

Import Tips

• Verify frequency certification (1-5 MHz) via manufacturer specs to confirm HTS 8541.60.00.30 classification and avoid reclassification to higher frequency subheadings

• Include RoHS compliance documentation as these semiconductor components are subject to EU and US environmental regulations during import

• Package in anti-static materials to prevent damage; declare as 'mounted quartz crystals' explicitly on commercial invoice to avoid customs delays
