Product details

Supply voltage spans 1.8V to 3.3V, covering common logic rails without an external regulator — the same part works in a 1.8V MCU or a 3.3V FPGA clock tree.

Automotive-grade qualification and reliability

Rated AEC-Q100, this oscillator meets the stress and PPAP requirements for under-hood and chassis-domain ECUs — the temperature band alone covers engine-bay ambient plus margin.

4-SMD, No Lead Exposed Pad package measuring 7.00 mm x 5.00 mm with a seated height of 0.90 mm — a standard 7x5 ceramic SMD footprint that drops in as a direct replacement for quartz oscillators of the same size.

Frequently asked questions

Can DSC1001AL5-008.0000 replace a standard 8 MHz quartz oscillator?

Yes — the 7x5 mm 4-pin SMD footprint is identical to common quartz oscillators, and the CMOS output is directly compatible. The MEMS construction adds shock tolerance and eliminates quartz startup settling time. Confirm the supply voltage (1.8V–3.3V) matches your rail; the Enable/Disable function may require a pull-up or pull-down if unused.

What is the frequency tolerance of DSC1001AL5-008.0000?

This is tighter than the ±25 ppm or ±50 ppm typical of many quartz XOs, reducing clock jitter in serial interfaces like CAN, SPI, or Ethernet.

Is DSC1001AL5-008.0000 suitable for automotive applications?

Yes — it is AEC-Q100 qualified, meaning it has passed the automotive-grade stress tests (temperature cycling, ESD, latch-up) and PPAP documentation is available.
