Product details

12 MHz MEMS oscillator with ±25 ppm stability

The DSC1033AI2-012.0000T is a 12 MHz XO (Standard) from Microchip's DSC1033 PureSilicon™ family, built on a MEMS resonator rather than a quartz crystal. The CMOS output and 3.3 V supply make it a drop-in clock source for MCUs, FPGAs, and serial transceivers that expect a standard square-wave clock.

Standby power-down for battery-sensitive designs

The standby (power down) function pulls the disable current to 1 µA max, while the active supply draws only 3 mA typical. In a battery-powered sensor node that sleeps most of the time, the oscillator's own draw during sleep is negligible — the 1 µA figure is below the self-discharge rate of a CR2032 coin cell.

Frequently asked questions

Can DSC1033AI2-012.0000T replace a standard quartz oscillator?

Yes — the DSC1033AI2-012.0000T is a MEMS-based oscillator that is pin-compatible with many standard 4-pad quartz XO footprints. The MEMS resonator is inherently more resistant to shock and vibration than quartz, and the ±25 ppm stability meets or exceeds the typical quartz oscillator spec for industrial applications.

What is the standby current of DSC1033AI2-012.0000T?

The disable (standby) supply current is 1 µA max. Active current is 3 mA typical.
