antknee New Member Mar 14, 2010 #1 I have this component on a humidifier board. It looks to be stainless steel with 2 pins and the markings: "ATC 24.000 MHZ" On the board it has a designator saying "Y1" What is it? Thanks. Attachments S63ED07374..JPG 85.2 KB · Views: 200

antknee New Member Mar 14, 2010 #4 Ah I see. I've not come across one of those on a circuit board before. The humidifier works at around 2MHz, perhaps it is taking it's signal from this crystal. Thanks.
