Murata announced a series of devices in its hybrid crystal resonator family, featuring improved accuracy of less than ±100ppm. Murata's hybrid crystal resonator family features a quartz crystal element manufactured by Tokyo Denpa alongside Murata's ceramic resonator technology in the same package, using Murata's production technology to create a device smaller and lower cost than a quartz crystal whilst maintaining the precision of quartz.

The XRCGB-M series features high accuracy of less than ±100ppm, complementing the already available XRCGA-L series, which has standard accuracy of ±150ppm. At low frequency (24 to 30MHz), initial tolerance of the XRCGB-M series is ±30ppm, plus temperature characteristic of ±40ppm over the range -30 to +85ºC. At high frequency (30.1 to 48MHz), initial tolerance is ±45ppm, plus temperature characteristic ±40ppm over the range -30 to +85ºC.

The XRCGB-M range also benefits from a tiny package size of just 2.0 x 1.6 x 0.7mm, comparing favourably to its quartz crystal equivalents. The series is available in frequencies of: 24, 25, 27, 27.12, 30, 33.86, 40 and 48MHz, with additional frequencies under development. Murata's hybrid crystal resonators now all feature four connection pads on the base to make them a more direct replacement for quartz. All Murata's hybrid crystal resonators are RoHS compliant.
