It operates from a 1.71V to 3.63V supply rail, drawing 1.3 mA typical — low enough for always-on automotive modules or battery-backed reference clocks. Housed in a 4-VFLGA package measuring 2.00 mm x 1.60 mm with a seated height of 0.89 mm, the DSC6001MI3B-004.0960 fits dense PCB layouts where board area is at a premium. Surface-mount assembly follows standard reflow profiles for LGA packages; no special moisture sensitivity level is listed, but a bake-out before reflow is prudent if the bag seal is broken. This feature is useful in multi-clock automotive ECUs where the reference can be gated during sleep states. The wide 1.71V to 3.63V supply range covers 1.8V, 2.5V, and 3.3V logic families without an external regulator, simplifying rail selection across mixed-voltage designs.","metaTitle":"DSC6001MI3B-004.0960 MEMS Oscillator – 4.096 MHz, AEC-Q100","metaDescription":"Microchip DSC6001MI3B-004.0960 XO, 4.096 MHz, CMOS, AEC-Q100 qualified, 1.71V–3.63V supply, 4-VFLGA.

This makes it suitable for under-hood and cabin electronics."},{"question":"Does DSC6001MI3B-004.0960 have an enable/disable function?","answer":"Yes, the Enable/Disable pin allows the CMOS output to be tri-stated. When disabled, the oscillator stops driving the clock line, reducing power consumption in sleep modes."},{"question":"Can DSC6001MI3B-004.0960 replace a quartz crystal oscillator?","answer":"It can replace a quartz-based XO in the same frequency and output logic family, but the MEMS resonator has different start-up characteristics — it does not require external load capacitors and is more shock-tolerant. Verify the pinout and supply voltage compatibility with your existing footprint."},{"question":"Is DSC6001MI3B-004.0960 pin compatible with other DSC60XX variants?","answer":"The DSC60XX series shares the same 4-VFLGA footprint and pinout for a given package size.
