Product details

MEMS oscillator at 25 MHz – 3.3 V CMOS output

The DSC1033BE1-025.0000T is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) from Microchip's PureSilicon™ series, delivering a 25 MHz CMOS output from a 3.3 V supply rail.

Standby power-down – 1 µA disable current

For a battery-operated sensor node or a controller that spends most of its life asleep, that disable current is below the leakage of a typical coin cell — the oscillator draws essentially nothing until the system wakes it. When enabled, the typical active current is 3 mA maximum at 25 MHz. That 3 mA figure includes the internal MEMS resonator and the CMOS output buffer driving a standard load — no external load caps or bias resistors are needed, unlike a quartz-based oscillator.

Surface-mount 4-SMD package – 5.0 × 3.2 mm footprint

The 4-SMD, No Lead package measures 5.00 mm × 3.20 mm with a seated height of 0.90 mm — a standard footprint shared by many MEMS and quartz oscillators. The land pattern matches industry-standard 4-pad layouts, so the DSC1033BE1-025.0000T can be placed on existing boards without a layout change.

Active production – no end-of-life notice

Frequently asked questions

What is the standby power-down function of the DSC1033BE1?

The Standby (Power Down) function disables the output and reduces supply current to 1 µA maximum. When the enable pin is pulled low (or high, per the logic table in the datasheet), the oscillator stops and the output goes high-impedance. This is designed for systems that need to cut clock power during sleep modes without removing the supply rail.

How does the DSC1033BE1-025.0000T compare to a quartz oscillator?

The MEMS resonator eliminates the quartz crystal's startup time — the DSC1033BE1 reaches stable frequency within microseconds of power-up, versus milliseconds for a typical quartz oscillator. It also avoids the need for external load capacitors and is more resistant to vibration and shock. The trade-off is that quartz parts can offer tighter stability options below ±50 ppm if required.
