Product details

Operating from 1.8 V to 3.3 V, this oscillator spans the common digital supply rails — a single BOM line covers 1.8 V FPGA banks, 2.5 V SERDES PLLs, and 3.3 V MCU clock inputs without a separate level translator.

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, the footprint matches the industry-standard 7×5 mm oscillator land pattern — a direct solder-paste stencil replacement for quartz oscillators in the same outline. Surface-mount assembly on standard PCB with no special via-in-pad requirements; the exposed pad provides a low-thermal-resistance path to the board ground plane, though the 8.7 mA draw rarely demands it.

Frequently asked questions

Is DSC1001AI5-072.0000T AEC-Q100 qualified?

Yes, it carries AEC-Q100 qualification, which means it has passed the automotive-grade reliability tests including temperature cycling, ESD, latch-up, and extended life testing. This is the key differentiator from standard commercial oscillators and is required for PPAP submission in automotive modules.

Can DSC1001AI5-072.0000T replace a standard quartz oscillator?

Yes, in the same 7×5 mm 4-pin SMD footprint, it is a drop-in replacement for quartz oscillators. The MEMS resonator offers better shock and vibration tolerance, faster start-up, and no quartz aging drift. The ±10 ppm stability matches or exceeds most quartz XO specifications.
