Product details

The DSC1004CE2-072.0000T is a 72 MHz MEMS-based XO (Standard) from Microchip's DSC1004 series, delivering a CMOS output with ±25 ppm frequency stability across its -20°C to 70°C operating range. AEC-Q100 qualification makes this oscillator suitable for automotive electronic modules — engine control units, transmission controllers, and body-domain ECUs — where a quartz crystal's shock and vibration sensitivity can cause start-up failures or frequency drift over life.

Supply range and standby current

Operating from a single 1.8V to 3.3V supply, the oscillator draws 10.5 mA max at 72 MHz — a low enough current to share a 3.3V rail with the MCU without a dedicated LDO.

Frequently asked questions

How can I order the DSC1004CE2-072.0000T or check availability?

The part is Active and available to order. Submit an RFQ with your target quantity and delivery window — we confirm pricing and lead time per request. No live stock count is published; availability is verified at quote time.

Is the DSC1004CE2-072.0000T a drop-in replacement for a 72 MHz quartz crystal oscillator?

Yes, in most cases. The DSC1004CE2-072.0000T is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) with CMOS output in a 4-SMD, No Lead package — the same footprint and output type as a standard quartz oscillator. The MEMS resonator eliminates quartz-specific failure modes (activity dips, microphonics, cold-start jitter) and delivers ±25 ppm stability without external load capacitors. Confirm the supply voltage range (1.8V–3.3V,) and enable polarity match with your existing oscillator's standby pin.

What does the Standby (Power Down) function do?

When the standby pin is asserted, the oscillator stops the output and enters a low-power state drawing 15 µA max. The MEMS resonator is not powered down — it is biased off, so the start-up time on wake is deterministic and fast, unlike a quartz oscillator that needs milliseconds to stabilize.
