Product details

8 MHz MEMS oscillator — what the ratings mean for your clock tree

The DSC1101AI1-008.0000T: The ±50 ppm APR covers initial tolerance, temperature drift, and aging, which is tight enough for UART, I2C, SPI, and most general-purpose clocking.

For a battery-powered sensor node that sleeps 99% of the time, this extends run time significantly. The enable pin is active-low; floating it leaves the oscillator running.

The pad is the same size as the package bottom; the PCB land pattern should match the recommended footprint in the datasheet. The MEMS resonator itself is rated for wider storage limits, but the silicon interface limits the operating range.

Frequently asked questions

What is the standby function of DSC1101AI1-008.0000T?

The enable pin is active-low — pulling it low stops oscillation; leaving it high or floating keeps the output running.

Is DSC1101AI1-008.0000T compatible with 3.3V supply?

Yes. The CMOS output swings rail-to-rail at 3.3 V, directly driving standard 3.3 V logic inputs.

Can I replace a standard crystal oscillator with DSC1101AI1-008.0000T?

Yes, if the board has a 6-VDFN footprint and accepts a CMOS clock input. The MEMS oscillator needs no external load capacitors, unlike a quartz crystal. Check that the output drive strength and supply voltage match the downstream logic.

What is the frequency of DSC1101AI1-008.0000T?

8 MHz fixed frequency. The ±50 ppm APR ensures the output stays within 50 ppm of 8 MHz over temperature, supply, and aging.
