Product details

MEMS oscillator for industrial timing

Housed in a 6-VDFN package measuring 7.00 mm x 5.00 mm, it operates from a 2.25V to 3.6V supply and draws a maximum of 35 mA.

Why the MEMS resonator matters on your board

The MEMS base resonator gives this oscillator better shock and vibration tolerance than a quartz crystal — it starts up faster and holds frequency tighter across temperature swings, which matters for outdoor telecom or factory-floor gear where the board sees thermal cycling. The Standby (Power Down) function lets you pull the output to high-impedance and drop current to near zero when the clock domain is idle — a useful feature for battery-powered or duty-cycled systems.

It remains suitable for new designs and production builds.

Frequently asked questions

Can DSC1101NI5-020.0000 replace a standard quartz oscillator?

Yes, it is a drop-in replacement for a 20 MHz quartz XO with CMOS output in a 7.00 mm x 5.00 mm footprint. The MEMS resonator offers better shock tolerance and faster startup than quartz, but the electrical interface — supply voltage range 2.25V to 3.6V, CMOS output — is the same.
