The DSC1001CL5-008.0000 is a Microchip Technology MEMS-based XO (Standard) delivering a fixed 8 MHz CMOS output — the frequency and logic family a digital clock tree needs, no PLL or external load caps required. AEC-Q100 qualification means it passed the automotive-grade stress tests — thermal cycling, ESD, latch-up — so it is suited for under-hood ECUs, ADAS sensor modules, and cabin-domain controllers that require a PPAP-compliant clock source.
Package and placement notes
Housed in a 4-SMD, No Lead package measuring 3.20 mm x 2.50 mm with a seated height of 0.90 mm, this is a standard MEMS oscillator footprint — the same land pattern as many quartz XO-2520-type devices, so a board layout already using that pad geometry can drop this in without a respin.
