Product details

MEMS oscillator for industrial timing

The MEMS resonator gives it better shock and vibration immunity than a quartz crystal, and it starts up faster—no millisecond wait for the crystal to oscillate.

Supply flexibility and standby power

Runs on a 2.25V to 3.6V supply, so it sits comfortably on either a 2.5V or 3.3V rail without an extra regulator. The standby (power-down) function drops the supply current to 95 µA max—useful in battery-powered designs that sleep most of the time and wake only to take a reading or send a packet.

Housed in a 6-SMD no-lead package measuring 3.20 mm x 2.50 mm with a seated height of 0.90 mm—a compact footprint that fits tight layouts. The surface-mount package is hand-solderable with a fine-tip iron and good flux; the no-lead design means the pads are flush with the package edge, so inspect the solder joints under magnification.

No direct pin-compatible replacement listed; the DSC1101 series shares the same footprint across frequencies, so a different frequency variant would require a board change.

Frequently asked questions

Does DSC1101CI1-012.5000 have a standby or power-down function?

Yes, the function is Standby (Power Down). When disabled, the supply current drops to 95 µA max, which is useful for battery-powered designs that sleep between operations.
