The DSC1001DC5-024.5760 is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) oscillator from Microchip Technology, delivering a 24.576 MHz CMOS output with ±10 ppm frequency stability. Its AEC-Q100 qualification makes it suitable for automotive electronics — under-hood or cabin — where quartz oscillators may fail under shock or wide temperature swings. The MEMS resonator inherently withstands vibration and rapid thermal cycling better than a quartz blank, which matters for engine control modules, ADAS cameras, and infotainment systems that see the full -40 to +125°C automotive temperature range (the device is rated 0°C–70°C, so confirm your ambient; the AEC-Q100 grade covers the extended range per the datasheet).
Standby mode and supply voltage flexibility
The supply voltage range spans 1.8V to 3.3V, so a single order code serves 1.8V, 2.5V, and 3.3V logic rails. This reduces BOM line count when the same oscillator is used across multiple voltage domains in a mixed-signal board.
Housed in a 4-SMD, No Lead package measuring 2.50 mm × 2.00 mm with a seated height of 0.90 mm. Surface-mount placement is standard pick-and-place; no special bake-out is needed for MSL, but confirm the moisture sensitivity level on the latest datasheet.
