Product details

125 MHz MEMS oscillator with automotive qualification

Its AEC-Q100 rating means it has passed the automotive-grade reliability stress tests — temperature cycling, ESD, latch-up — required for under-hood and cabin electronics. The standby (power down) function drops supply current to 15 µA max, letting the oscillator sleep when the ECU is off without a separate enable signal.

Supply voltage flexibility and power budget

Operating from 1.8V to 3.3V, this oscillator works across the common logic rails found in automotive microcontrollers and FPGAs. The 10.5 mA max supply current at 125 MHz is the full-speed draw; in standby the disable current is 15 µA, so a battery-backed RTC or wake-up circuit sees negligible drain during sleep.

Package, footprint, and board integration

Housed in a 4-SMD, No Lead Exposed Pad package measuring 7.00mm x 5.00mm with a seated height of 0.90mm. The exposed pad provides a thermal path to the PCB ground plane — a solid via array under the pad keeps the junction temperature within limits during continuous 125 MHz operation. Surface-mount assembly with standard reflow profiles; the MEMS resonator is inherently more shock and vibration tolerant than a quartz crystal, which matters for engine-bay and chassis-mounted ECUs.

Sourced through independent distribution; quoted to order against the BOM quantity. No direct pin-compatible replacement is recorded — the DSC1004AI5-125.0000T is the specific automotive-grade variant at this frequency and stability.

Frequently asked questions

Is the DSC1004AI5-125.0000T suitable for automotive applications?

Yes — it carries an AEC-Q100 rating, which qualifies it for automotive-grade reliability. The MEMS resonator also offers better shock and vibration tolerance than quartz, which is an advantage in automotive ECUs.

Does the DSC1004AI5-125.0000T have a standby or power-down function?

Yes. The function is listed as Standby (Power Down). When disabled, the supply current drops to 15 µA max, allowing the oscillator to be gated off during system sleep without an external load switch.
