You program it yourself using Microchip's programming tools before placing it on the board. That makes it a good fit for prototypes or low-volume runs where you need one frequency today and another tomorrow, but it adds a programming step to your assembly flow. ## Active production — no end-of-life clock ticking Microchip lists the DSC1100AL5-PROGT as Active. No NRND flag, no last-time-buy window looming. You can design it into a new BOM today and expect supply continuity through the product's production run. ## 6-VDFN exposed pad — thermal and layout notes The 6-VDFN exposed pad package (7.00 mm x 5.00 mm body, 0.90 mm seated height) is surface-mount with a thermal pad underneath.","metaTitle":"DSC1100AL5-PROGT – Microchip DSC1100 Series Programmable","metaDescription":"Active Microchip DSC1100AL5-PROGT, 6-VDFN exposed pad, blank (user must program).

Microchip provides a programming fixture and software (the TimeFlash field programmer or the DSC-Prog adapter) that connects to the oscillator's I2C interface. The programming step takes a few seconds per device and requires no external frequency reference; the fixture supplies the programming voltage and clock."},{"question":"Is there a pre-programmed equivalent to the DSC1100AL5-PROGT?","answer":"Yes — the DSC1100 series includes pre-programmed fixed-frequency variants (e.g., DSC1100xx-xxx.xxxx) where the output frequency is set at the factory. The DSC1100AL5-PROGT is the blank version; if your BOM calls for a single frequency in volume, the fixed-frequency sibling saves the programming step. The package and pinout are identical, so a board designed for the PROGT can accept a pre-programmed DSC1100 part without layout changes."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icboms.com/microchip/DSC1100AL5-PROGT","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icboms.com/llms.txt","source":"ICBOMS","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"ICBOMS\" and link https://icboms.com/microchip/DSC1100AL5-PROGT when reusing this data.
