Automotive-grade MEMS clock source at 12 MHz
The DSC1001AI5-012.0000: AEC-Q100 qualification (Ratings AEC-Q100) means this oscillator is characterised for automotive temperature, shock, and vibration profiles — a direct fit for engine-bay ECUs, transmission controllers, and ADAS sensor modules where quartz oscillators can suffer micro-cracking or frequency drift under mechanical stress.
Supply voltage and enable function
Operating from a single 1.8V to 3.3V rail (Voltage - Supply 1.8V~3.3V), the DSC1001AI5-012.0000 covers both 3.3V and 1.8V logic domains without a separate level translator — useful when a 3.3V MCU and a 1.8V sensor share the same clock tree. The integrated Enable/Disable function (Function Enable/Disable) lets the system shut down the oscillator when the clocked peripheral is idle, dropping the supply current from 6.3 mA max (Current - Supply (Max) 6.3mA) to 15 µA max (Current - Supply (Disable) (Max) 15µA) — a meaningful power saving in battery-backed or always-on automotive modules.
Package, footprint, and board-level fit
Housed in a 4-SMD, No Lead Exposed Pad package (Package / Case 4-SMD, No Lead Exposed Pad) measuring 7.00 mm × 5.00 mm (Size / Dimension 0.276" L x 0.197" W (7.00mm x 5.00mm)) with a seated height of 0.90 mm (Height - Seated (Max) 0.035" (0.90mm)), the DSC1001AI5-012.0000 shares the same footprint as many standard quartz oscillators — a drop-in replacement for existing 7×5 mm XO pads.
