About this product
A 32.768 kHz quartz crystal, usually a tuning-fork type, used as the time base for real-time clock (RTC) chips and low-power timers. The frequency is 2 to the power of 15 cycles per second, so simple binary division produces one pulse per second. Connect it with the load capacitors specified for the RTC or microcontroller.

Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Crystal 32.768 kHz in Egypt?
Crystal 32.768 kHz currently costs 15 EGP in Egypt.
Where can I buy Crystal 32.768 kHz in Egypt?
Crystal 32.768 kHz is available from Future Electronics. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
Which RTC chips need this crystal?
Chips such as the DS1307 use an external 32.768 kHz crystal as their time base. Some other RTC modules, such as the DS3231, include a temperature-compensated oscillator and do not need one.
Do I need load capacitors for a 32.768 kHz crystal?
Usually yes, but the required capacitance varies by crystal and chip. Check the load capacitance in the RTC or microcontroller datasheet, and do not substitute a higher-frequency crystal, because the RTC relies on this exact frequency.
