Product details

2.048 MHz MEMS XO — the E1 timing reference

The DSC1033CI1-002.0480 is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) from Microchip's PureSilicon™ series, delivering a 2.048 MHz CMOS output from a 3.3 V supply. That 2.048 MHz is the framing rate — this oscillator was designed into telecom timing modules, T1/ line cards, and base station synchronisation circuits where the frequency tolerance matters more than the absolute accuracy of a crystal.

Standby function — 1 µA power-down current

That is the entire oscillator going to sleep — no output, no internal bias. For a battery-backed line card or a remote sensor node that wakes on a periodic schedule, the 1 µA sleep current extends shelf life without a load switch on the 3.3 V rail.

Microchip has discontinued the DSC1033CI1-002.0480 — the product status is marked Obsolete. For a board that already carries this oscillator, the only path is surplus or independent distribution.

Frequently asked questions

How can I order the DSC1033CI1-002.0480 or check availability?

This part is obsolete. Submit a quote request; we will come back with lot-specific stock and lead time.

Is there a pin-compatible replacement for the DSC1033CI1-002.0480?

Microchip has not published an official successor for this exact order code. A current-production MEMS XO in the same 3.2 x 2.5 mm 4-SMD no-lead package from the DSC11xx or DSC60xx series may be footprint-compatible, but the control logic (standby vs enable) and output drive strength should be checked against the original DSC1033 datasheet before committing a board spin.

What is the frequency stability of the DSC1033CI1-002.0480?

That is the total frequency deviation including initial tolerance, temperature drift, and aging — tight enough for framing without external trimming.
