The DSC1001CL5-012.0000T is a 12 MHz MEMS-based XO (Standard) from Microchip Technology's DSC1001 series, delivering a CMOS output with ±10ppm frequency stability across its full operating range. AEC-Q100 qualification and a -40°C to 105°C temperature range make it suitable for under-hood automotive electronics, outdoor telecom, and factory-floor controllers where quartz oscillators may fail under shock or vibration. The MEMS resonator base provides inherent resistance to mechanical stress, a key advantage over quartz in high-vibration environments like engine control units or transmission modules.
Supply voltage flexibility and low-power standby
Compact 4-SMD package for space-constrained boards
Housed in a 4-SMD, No Lead package measuring 3.20mm x 2.50mm with a seated height of 0.90mm, the DSC1001CL5-012.0000T fits tight PCB layouts in automotive sensor modules, portable instruments, and IoT edge nodes. The no-lead construction simplifies reflow soldering and automated optical inspection — no bent leads to check, and the flat terminations provide a reliable solder joint under thermal cycling.
