The DSC1103AE2-156.2500T is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) oscillator delivering a 156.25 MHz LVDS output from a 2.25V to 3.63V supply rail. The 6-VDFN exposed pad package (7.00mm x 5.00mm footprint) requires a thermal pad on the PCB for heat sinking; the exposed paddle should be connected to the ground plane with a few vias to keep junction temperature in check.
Microchip lists the DSC1103AE2-156.2500T as Active.
It belongs in indoor equipment, office networking gear, or test instruments — not in an engine bay or outdoor enclosure without climate control.
