Product details

MEMS oscillator replaces quartz — fit for vibration and fast start

The DSC1001AE1-050.0000 is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) that outputs a 50 MHz CMOS clock from a 1.8 V to 3.3 V supply rail, drawing 7.2 mA max at full load.

AEC-Q100 Grade — automotive deployment without a quartz penalty

Package and board-fit — 7.0 mm × 5.0 mm 4-SMD

Housed in a 4-SMD, no-lead exposed-pad package measuring 7.00 mm × 5.00 mm with a seated height of 0.90 mm max, the footprint matches standard 7×5 mm oscillator pads — a drop-in replacement for quartz XOs of the same size.

Frequently asked questions

Can DSC1001AE1-050.0000 replace a standard quartz crystal oscillator?

Functionally yes — it outputs a 50 MHz CMOS clock just like a quartz XO. The MEMS resonator is more vibration-tolerant and starts up faster than quartz, but the pinout and footprint (4-SMD, 7.0 mm × 5.0 mm) match standard oscillator pads. No external load capacitors are needed; the MEMS oscillator is self-contained.

What is the standby power consumption?

In standby (power-down) mode, the supply current is 15 µA max. The output is disabled, and the internal oscillator is shut down, allowing the system to gate the clock without an external load switch.

Is DSC1001AE1-050.0000 AEC-Q100 qualified?

Yes, it carries an AEC-Q100 rating. That means it has passed automotive-grade reliability stress tests including temperature cycling, ESD, and latch-up — suitable for automotive ECUs within its -20°C to 70°C temperature range.
