The DSC1001AE5-012.0000 is a 12 MHz MEMS-based XO (Standard) oscillator from Microchip's DSC1001 series, delivering a CMOS output with ±10 ppm frequency stability across its -20°C to 70°C operating range.
Supply voltage and output compatibility
Operating from a single 1.8V to 3.3V supply rail, the DSC1001AE5-012.0000 can be powered directly from a 1.8V core rail or a 3.3V I/O rail without an external regulator — the wide range covers both domains. The CMOS output is compatible with standard MCU clock inputs, including those on Microchip PIC, AVR, and SAM devices, as well as most ARM Cortex-M and Cortex-A processors.
Housed in a 4-SMD, No Lead Exposed Pad package measuring 7.00mm x 5.00mm with a seated height of 0.90mm, this oscillator uses the same 7x5 mm land pattern as standard quartz oscillators — a direct PCB drop-in for designs currently using a 7x5 mm quartz can. Surface-mount assembly with no exposed pad means standard reflow profiles apply; no via-in-pad or thermal pad soldering is required.
