The DSC1001AE2-002.0480T is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) oscillator from Microchip's DSC1001 series, delivering a fixed 2.048 MHz output in CMOS logic levels. Rated AEC-Q100, this part is qualified for automotive temperature and reliability stress, making it suitable for under-hood and chassis-domain clocking applications that must withstand -20°C to 70°C ambient. The wide supply range of 1.8V to 3.3V allows the oscillator to operate from common digital rails without an external regulator, simplifying power distribution on the board.
A dedicated Standby (Power Down) function reduces current draw to 15 µA max when disabled, versus 6.3 mA max during active operation — a 420× reduction that preserves battery life in intermittently powered systems.
Package, footprint, and mounting
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 DSC1001AE2-002.0480T fits standard oscillator footprints and is compatible with reflow soldering profiles.
