Product details

MEMS oscillator for 8 MHz clock generation

The DSC1001AI2-008.0000 is a MEMS-based standard oscillator (XO) from Microchip's DSC1001 series, delivering a fixed 8 MHz CMOS output with ±25 ppm frequency stability. It operates from a single 1.8V to 3.3V supply, drawing a maximum of 6.5 mA.

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. Surface-mount assembly compatible with standard reflow profiles.

It remains a valid choice for new designs, including automotive programs requiring AEC-Q100 compliance. Sourced through independent distribution channels. No stock-holding claim is made — availability is verified at quote time.

Frequently asked questions

Does DSC1001AI2-008.0000 meet AEC-Q100 automotive qualification?

Yes, the datasheet lists AEC-Q100 as a rating. It is suitable for under-hood and cabin electronics.

Is DSC1001AI2-008.0000 a drop-in replacement for a standard quartz crystal oscillator?

Functionally yes — it provides a 8 MHz CMOS clock output with ±25 ppm stability, which matches many quartz XO footprints. However, the MEMS resonator eliminates the need for external load capacitors and has no start-up time. Verify the pinout and enable logic against your existing quartz oscillator before substituting.

What is the difference between DSC1001 and DSC1002 series?

The DSC1001 is a standard oscillator (XO) with a fixed frequency output. The DSC1002 typically adds a spread-spectrum feature to reduce EMI. For a standard 8 MHz clock without spread-spectrum, the DSC1001AI2-008.0000 is the correct choice.

Can DSC1001AI2-008.0000 replace a quartz crystal oscillator?

Yes, as a MEMS-based XO it provides a CMOS clock output at 8 MHz with ±25 ppm accuracy. It requires no external load capacitors and offers faster start-up than a quartz crystal + oscillator circuit. Check that the supply voltage (1.8V to 3.3V) and enable logic match your design.
