Overview - EN 61240:2017 (CLC / IEC 61240:2016)

EN 61240:2017 (identical to IEC 61240:2016) defines general rules for preparing outline drawings of surface‑mounted piezoelectric devices (SMD) used for frequency control and selection (e.g., crystal resonators, oscillators). The standard ensures mechanical interchangeability of package outlines by specifying drawing conventions, views, dimension tables and terminal details. This third edition introduces ISO third‑angle projection views, revised reference lines and dimensions, and an annex covering miniaturized leadless ceramic enclosures.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope and purpose: Sets rules for all dimensional and geometrical characteristics of SMD packages to guarantee mechanical interchangeability.
  • Drawing composition: An outline drawing must include:
    • Four views based on ISO layout in third‑angle projection (top, front, bottom and right),
    • A table of detailed dimensions,
    • An actual‑size sketch,
    • Terminal land area drawings and terminal lead details.
  • Classification of SMDs: Packages are classified as leaded, folded‑leads, or leadless depending on terminal lead structure.
  • Terminal and land requirements: Specifies requirements for terminal lead geometry, terminal land areas on PCBs, and allowed connections to ensure reliable mounting and soldering.
  • Descriptive notes: Standardizes metadata: package material (metal/plastic/ceramic), sealing method, number of terminals and SMD type.
  • Annex on leadless ceramic enclosures: Provides guidance for miniaturized leadless ceramic packages and naming rules.
  • Normative references: Cross‑references IEC 60191‑6 and related ISO/CENELEC documents for drawing and projection practices.

Practical applications and who uses it

  • Component manufacturers: Create compliant outline drawings and product datasheets for crystal and frequency control SMDs.
  • PCB designers and layout engineers: Use terminal land area and dimension tables for footprint design and assembly.
  • Procurement and quality teams: Verify mechanical interchangeability and supplier drawings against a harmonized standard.
  • Test labs and assemblers: Ensure mounting, soldering and handling practices match package definitions.
  • Standards and compliance engineers: Harmonize internal drawing templates and CAD libraries with EN 61240 rules.

Related standards

  • IEC 61240:2016 (international counterpart)
  • IEC 60191‑6 (mechanical standardization of semiconductor device outline drawings)
  • Relevant ISO/CENELEC drawing and projection standards (e.g., ISO drawing projection and geometric tolerancing standards noted in the EN foreword)

Using EN 61240:2017 helps manufacturers and designers reduce footprint errors, improve cross‑supplier interchangeability, and streamline PCB mounting of frequency control SMD components.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in
addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses
arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

INTRODUCTION
The enclosures of quartz crystal resonators and oscillators are unified in this third edition of
IEC 61240.
Regarding the current situation of many quartz crystal device suppliers, many of them use their
own enclosure layouts in their catalogues. For the convenience of consumers, general rules of
enclosure layout and definition of size need to be unified.
The reasons prompting the revision of IEC 61240:2012 are as follow

IEC 61240:2016(E)는 주파수 제어 및 선택을 위한 표면 장착 압전장치 패키지에 대한 모든 치수 및 기하학적 특성의 도면을 그리기 위한 일반 규칙을 제시합니다. 이 문서에서는 SMD의 외형 도면의 기계적 교환 가능성을 보장하기 위해 SMD의 모든 외형 도면이 동일한 치수 및 기하학적 특성을 따르도록합니다. 이 버전은 다음과 같은 중요한 기술적 변경 사항을 포함합니다. 외형 도면은 ISO 배치를 기반으로 한 제 3 각 투영에 기초한 것으로 변경되었고, 위쪽, 앞쪽, 아래쪽 보기에 오른쪽의 보기가 추가되었습니다. 또한, 실용적으로 사용하기 위해 패키지용 대조선 및 기하치수가 변경되었습니다. 또한 부록에 주파수 제어 및 선택을 위한 SMD의 소형 무선 세라믹 케이스에 대한 정보가 포함되었습니다.

The article discusses the changes made in the EN 61240:2017 standard for preparing outline drawings of surface-mounted piezoelectric devices (SMD) used for frequency control and selection. The standard aims to ensure that all SMD outline drawings adhere to the same dimensional and geometrical characteristics, allowing for mechanical interchangeability. The significant technical changes in this edition include switching from three views to a layout based on ISO projection, adding a view from the right to the top, front, and bottom views. Additionally, practical changes have been made to the reference line and geometrical dimensions of the package enclosures. The article also mentions the inclusion of information on miniaturized leadless ceramic enclosures of SMDs for frequency control and selection in an annex.
