Product details

The DSC1101CI2-164.0000 is a 164 MHz XO (Standard) oscillator built on a MEMS resonator rather than a quartz crystal — the MEMS die is sealed at wafer level, which gives it better resistance to shock and vibration than a quartz can.

Standby mode for power-sensitive BOMs

A dedicated Standby (Power Down) pin drops the supply current from 35 mA max to 95 µA max — that is a 370× reduction. For a battery-powered sensor node that sleeps most of the time, this oscillator lets the MCU wake on a timer interrupt without keeping the clock tree powered. The 2.25V to 3.6V supply range means it runs from a 2.5V or 3.3V rail without a separate LDO, saving a component and a PCB trace.

Frequently asked questions

Does the DSC1101CI2-164.0000 support standby mode?

Yes. The function is listed as Standby (Power Down). When the standby pin is asserted, the oscillator stops and draws 95 µA max, versus 35 mA max in normal operation. This is a hardware pin — no I2C or SPI configuration needed.
