The DSC1001DL5-100.0000T is a 100 MHz MEMS-based XO (Standard) oscillator from Microchip's DSC1001 series, delivering a CMOS output with ±10 ppm frequency stability across its full -40 to 105°C operating range. The MEMS base resonator inherently resists vibration and mechanical shock better than a quartz blank, which is why you see this family specified in powertrain or chassis-mounted electronics where the board sees 5–10 g of vibration.
For a battery-backed ECU that sleeps between ignition cycles, this 580× reduction in oscillator current extends the hold-up time without an external load switch. The same BOM position works across a 3.3V main rail and a 1.8V standby rail — just confirm the supply voltage at the pin matches the logic family of the downstream receiver.
Package, footprint, and sourcing posture
Housed in a 4-SMD, No Lead package measuring 2.50 mm × 2.00 mm with a seated height of 0.90 mm — this is a standard MEMS oscillator footprint compatible with most 2.5×2.0 mm XO pads. The no-lead construction keeps the parasitic inductance low, which matters for the 100 MHz edge rates.
