What the AEC-Q100 rating means for your BOM
The standby (power-down) function drops supply current from 8.7 mA active to 15 µA max in disable. That 580-to-1 ratio means a battery-backed RTC or a CAN-wake circuit can leave the oscillator powered down for months without draining the reserve cell. CMOS output directly drives the clock input of most MCUs and FPGAs without an external level translator—the 1.8V to 3.3V supply range matches the core voltage of modern processors, so one oscillator covers multiple rails in the same BOM.
