The DSC1003DL2-070.0000: AEC-Q100 qualification places this part in the automotive-grade category — suitable for under-hood and cabin electronics where temperature cycling and vibration exceed commercial-grade limits. The MEMS resonator inherently handles shock better than quartz, which matters for engine-mounted or chassis-located modules.
Supply rail flexibility and standby power
Operating from 1.7 V to 3.6 V, this oscillator spans the common 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V logic rails without needing a separate regulator — one BOM line covers multiple voltage domains across a design. Standby (power-down) function drops supply current to 15 µA max, while active draw is 9.6 mA max at 70 MHz — the standby current is low enough to keep a battery-backed real-time clock or wake-up circuit alive for extended periods.
