Product details

125 MHz MEMS XO with AEC-Q100 qualification

AEC-Q100 rated, this part is qualified for automotive environments — suitable for engine control units, ADAS sensor hubs, and infotainment modules where a quartz crystal's shock or temperature drift would be a reliability risk. Operating from a single 1.8V to 3.3V supply, it covers the common core and I/O voltage rails without a separate regulator, simplifying the power tree.

Standby power-down and supply current

A Standby (Power Down) function drops the supply current to 15 µA max when the enable pin is pulled low — useful for battery-backed or ignition-switched modules that must preserve the quiescent budget during sleep. Active supply current is 8.7 mA max at 125 MHz, a reasonable draw for a high-frequency clock source in a 7.0 mm × 5.0 mm 4-SMD package with exposed pad for thermal relief.

The MEMS resonator construction gives it better shock and vibration immunity than a quartz crystal — a practical advantage for automotive and industrial panels where board flex or mechanical stress can pull a quartz oscillator off frequency.

Frequently asked questions

Is the DSC1001AI2-125.0000T AEC-Q100 qualified?

Yes, it carries an AEC-Q100 rating, meaning it has passed automotive-grade reliability stress tests including temperature cycling, ESD, and latch-up immunity.

Can I replace a quartz oscillator with the DSC1001AI2-125.0000T?

Yes, in most cases. The DSC1001AI2 is a MEMS-based XO with a CMOS output, so it is a drop-in replacement for a standard quartz oscillator of the same frequency, supply voltage, and package footprint (7.0 mm × 5.0 mm, 4-pin). The MEMS construction offers better shock resistance and typically tighter stability over temperature, but confirm the output drive strength and load capacitance match your downstream buffer.
