Product details

The DSC1001AI2-016.5000T is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) from Microchip's DSC1001 series, delivering a fixed 16.5 MHz CMOS output with ±25 ppm frequency stability across the full industrial temperature range of -40 to 85 °C. The MEMS resonator gives this part a faster startup than a quartz-based XO and better resistance to vibration and mechanical shock, which is why it often appears in engine-control and transmission-control unit BOMs.

Supply range, standby mode, and power budget

For a battery-backed RTC or a CAN node that sleeps between wake-up cycles, that 15 µA standby current keeps the oscillator from draining the hold-up capacitor during long idle periods.

Package, footprint, and assembly

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—a standard 7×5 mm ceramic SMD footprint that matches many quartz XO pinouts, so the PCB layout does not need to change when swapping from a quartz to a MEMS source.

Frequently asked questions

How can I order the DSC1001AI2-016.5000T or request a quote?

This is an active, current-production part. Submit an RFQ with your target quantity; we source through independent distribution and confirm availability and pricing at quote time. No minimum order quantity is assumed—quote per your BOM line.

What is the frequency of the DSC1001AI2-016.5000T?

It is a fixed 16.5 MHz oscillator. There is no programmability or frequency trim option on this order code.

Is the DSC1001AI2-016.5000T AEC-Q100 qualified?

Yes, it carries AEC-Q100 qualification, making it suitable for automotive applications where the oscillator must meet the reliability and temperature requirements of the standard.

What is the output type of the DSC1001AI2-016.5000T?

The output is CMOS. It drives a standard CMOS logic input without needing external termination or level translation for most MCU and SoC clock inputs.

Does the DSC1001AI2-016.5000T have a standby or power-down mode?

Yes, it has a Standby (Power Down) function. When the enable pin is de-asserted, the supply current drops to 15 µA max, allowing the oscillator to be gated off during system sleep without removing the main supply rail.
