Product details

156.25 MHz LVDS reference for high-speed serial links

The DSC1103CE1-156.2500 is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) oscillator delivering a 156.25 MHz LVDS output — a common reference frequency for Gigabit Ethernet, PCIe Gen 1/2/3, and SFP+ modules. The LVDS differential pair provides clean edge rates and common-mode rejection, reducing jitter on long board traces compared to a single-ended CMOS oscillator at the same frequency. Supply voltage spans 2.25V to 3.63V, so the same part can run on a 2.5V or 3.3V rail without a dedicated LDO — useful when the FPGA or SerDes bank already provides one of those voltages.

Microchip lists the DSC1103CE1-156.2500 as Active.

Housed in a 6-SMD no-lead package measuring 3.20mm x 2.50mm with a seated height of 0.90mm.

Frequently asked questions

Is DSC1103CE1-156.2500 active or obsolete?

Determines if the part is still in production and available for new designs or replacements.

What is the supply voltage range for DSC1103CE1-156.2500?

Ensures compatibility with the design's power rail, avoiding damage or malfunction.

What is the difference between DSC1103CE1 and DSC1103CE2 series?

Helps engineers and buyers select the correct variant for their application based on standby vs. enable/disable features.

Can DSC1103CE1-156.2500 be replaced by a less expensive equivalent?

Buyers and procurement staff need cost-reduction alternatives without changing board layout or performance.

What is the typical lead time for DSC1103CE1-156.2500?

Critical for production planning and avoiding delays in manufacturing.

Is DSC1103CE1-156.2500 compatible with 3.3V supply?

Common system voltage, but voltage range is 2.25V-3.63V so yes, but queries confirm safe operation.
