This is the key distinction from a fixed-frequency oscillator: you must have a programming tool and the configuration file ready before the part can function on your board. The part belongs to the DSC1100 series from Microchip Technology, which supports field programming to a wide range of output frequencies. The blank state gives you inventory flexibility — one order code covers multiple frequency plans, as long as you program each device before assembly. ## Package and footprint — 6-VDFN layout constraints Housed in a 6-VDFN package measuring 3.20mm x 2.50mm with a seated height of 0.90mm max. The base product number is DSC1100, which covers the entire programmable oscillator family. If you need a pre-programmed fixed-frequency variant, check the DSC1100 series ordering guide for a different suffix.","metaTitle":"DSC1100CL3-PROGT Programmable Oscillator","metaDescription":"DSC1100CL3-PROGT blank (user must program) oscillator in 6-VDFN package.

You will need the configuration file for your target frequency and the appropriate adapter for the 6-VDFN package. Microchip's application notes for the DSC1100 series detail the programming sequence and tool setup."},{"question":"Can DSC1100CL3-PROGT replace a specific fixed-frequency oscillator?","answer":"Yes, because it is a blank programmable device, it can be configured to match the output frequency of many fixed-frequency oscillators within the DSC1100 series' supported range. However, you must verify that the target frequency, supply voltage, and output type (e.g., LVCMOS, LVPECL) are compatible with the DSC1100 family specifications. The pinout and footprint of the 6-VDFN package must also match the existing PCB layout."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://icboms.com/microchip/DSC1100CL3-PROGT","citationPolicyUrl":"https://icboms.com/llms.txt","source":"ICBOMS","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"ICBOMS\" and link https://icboms.com/microchip/DSC1100CL3-PROGT when reusing this data.
