For an engine-bay ECU or outdoor telecom node that sees 70°C on a hot day, the MEMS resonator holds ±50 ppm stability without the frequency jump a quartz crystal can exhibit near its activity dip.
Supply flexibility and standby current
The wide supply range of 1.8V to 3.3V lets the same oscillator serve 1.8V-core and 3.3V-I/O domains without a separate level translator.
Housed in a 4-SMD, No Lead Exposed Pad package measuring 7.00 mm x 5.00 mm with a seated height of 0.90 mm.
The DSC1001 series is Microchip's mainstream MEMS oscillator family; no official successor has been announced. The AEC-Q100 qualification and MEMS construction mean this part is a drop-in replacement for quartz XOs in the same 7.0 x 5.0 mm 4-pin footprint, provided the supply voltage and frequency match.
