Why a MEMS oscillator instead of quartz
This DSC1101DL2-054.0000T uses a MEMS resonator rather than a quartz crystal — the MEMS structure is inherently more shock- and vibration-tolerant, and the frequency is set during wafer-level trim, so there is no crystal aging drift to budget in a 10-year field life.
Rated for -40 to 105°C, this oscillator fits outdoor telecom cabinets, factory-floor controllers, and engine-bay electronics where a commercial-grade 0-70°C part would drift out of spec on a hot afternoon.
Housed in a 6-VDFN package measuring 2.50 mm x 2.00 mm with a seated height of 0.90 mm — the small footprint and low profile suit space-constrained PCBs like PCIe add-in cards or compact IoT modules.
