About this component

Provides one of the two 16 MHz clocks on the board, one for the ATmega2560 and one for the ATmega16U2. A failed clock part stops its MCU completely: no sketch runs, or the board disappears from USB. Arduino's product page describes the main clock as a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, so check the board before ordering a replacement. Part variants: The Rev3 schematic shows two 16 MHz clock parts: Y1 (Murata ceramic resonator CSTCE16M0V53-R0) and a second 16 MHz part Y2 whose value could not be read; which one clocks which MCU was not confirmed.

What it does on this board

16MHz clock for the main MCU.
