33.33 MHz MEMS clock with automotive-grade assurance
AEC-Q100 qualification (Grade 2 implied by the temperature range) means this part has passed the automotive reliability stress tests — it is suited for under-hood or cabin electronics where vibration and thermal cycling are routine. Active product status confirms Microchip continues to manufacture and support this order code for new designs — no last-time-buy or obsolescence risk on the horizon.
Standby power and supply flexibility
A Standby (Power Down) function drops the supply current to 15 µA max when the enable pin is deasserted — this is the current draw when the oscillator is disabled, not the active consumption. The active supply current is 7.2 mA max at full output load, and the wide supply range of 1.8V to 3.3V lets a single BOM line serve multiple voltage domains without a separate regulator for the clock. The 4-SMD, No Lead package with a 2.50mm x 2.00mm footprint and 0.90mm seated height fits tight board layouts — the small land pattern demands careful solder paste stencil design to avoid bridging on the four terminals.
