Product details

AEC-Q100 qualified MEMS clock source

A standard quartz oscillator without this rating would require separate qualification before it lands on an automotive BOM.

Operating from a single 1.8V to 3.3V supply, this oscillator can be driven directly from a 1.8V core rail or a 3.3V I/O rail without an external level translator — one part number covers both domains. For a telematics module that spends most of its life asleep and wakes periodically to transmit, that standby current is well below the battery management IC's leakage budget. Active current draw is 7.2 mA max at 50 MHz — a figure that stays flat across the supply range, so the thermal rise in the 3.2 mm x 2.5 mm 4-SMD package is minimal even in a still-air enclosure.

Supplied in tube as standard. The 4-SMD no-lead footprint is a drop-in replacement for standard 3.2 mm x 2.5 mm quartz oscillators, so no board layout change is required when switching from a quartz part.

Frequently asked questions

Is the DSC1001CI1-050.0000 AEC-Q100 qualified?

Yes, it carries AEC-Q100 ratings, which means it has passed automotive-grade reliability testing including temperature cycling, ESD, and latch-up. This qualifies it for under-hood and cabin electronics without additional qualification.

Can the DSC1001CI1-050.0000 replace a standard 50 MHz quartz oscillator?

Yes, it is a drop-in replacement in terms of footprint and function. It delivers the same 50 MHz CMOS output from a 3.2 mm x 2.5 mm 4-SMD package. The key differences are the MEMS resonator (more shock and vibration tolerant) and the AEC-Q100 qualification, which a standard quartz oscillator typically lacks.

What is the standby current of the DSC1001CI1-050.0000?

In standby (power-down) mode, the maximum supply current is 15 µA. This allows battery-powered modules to keep the oscillator on the board but disabled during sleep, drawing negligible current.
