MEMS resonator reliability vs. quartz in automotive environments
Standby function and supply voltage flexibility
The supply voltage range spans 1.8V to 3.3V, so the same oscillator can feed a 1.8V FPGA bank, a 2.5V SerDes PLL, or a 3.3V microcontroller without a level translator — one BOM line covers three power domains.
Package footprint and layout consideration
Housed in a 4-SMD, No Lead package measuring 3.20mm x 2.50mm with a seated height of 0.90mm. The 4-pin footprint matches industry-standard MEMS and quartz oscillator pinouts — no layout change needed if swapping from a quartz XO.
Product status is Active — Microchip continues to manufacture and support the DSC1001 series.
