AEC-Q100 qualified MEMS oscillator for 74.25 MHz clock trees
That temperature band maps directly to AEC-Q100 Grade 1, making this part suitable for under-hood automotive ECUs, outdoor telecom base stations, and factory-floor controllers where a quartz crystal would risk drift from vibration or thermal shock. For a 12 V automotive module that must pass a 100 µA quiescent current test per OEM specification, this 15 µA draw leaves headroom for the rest of the sleep-state circuitry.
Supply range and power-down current for multi-rail designs
At 74.25 MHz the maximum active current is 8.7 mA, which is typical for a MEMS oscillator at this frequency and leaves margin in the rail budget for a 500 mA supply. When the standby pin is asserted, the disable current is 15 µA max. This is low enough that the oscillator can remain powered from a always-on battery line in an automotive body controller without draining the reserve capacity.
Active lifecycle with AEC-Q100 documentation trail
The AEC-Q100 qualification means the manufacturer has completed the full suite of reliability stress tests (preconditioning, temperature cycling, HAST, high-temperature operating life) and can supply PPAP documentation — a requirement for any Tier-1 automotive supplier submitting a device for OEM approval.
The package is a 4-SMD, no-lead (4-SMD, No Lead) with dimensions 2.50 mm x 2.00 mm and a seated height of 0.90 mm. This 2.0 x 2.5 mm footprint is common among MEMS oscillators and fits the standard 4-pad land pattern; the no-lead construction means the pads are flush with the package bottom, which improves solder-joint inspection access. Surface-mount assembly with reflow soldering is expected; the MEMS die inside the package is sealed at the wafer level, so no special bake-out or moisture sensitivity level (MSL) handling is required beyond the standard MSL 1 rating typical of this series.
