Product details

Active MEMS oscillator for 168.5 MHz LVDS clock trees

The DSC1103CE2-168.5000T is an active-production MEMS-based XO (Standard) delivering a 168.5 MHz LVDS output from a 2.25V to 3.63V supply rail.

Standby function and supply tolerance for power-sensitive boards

The wide 2.25V–3.63V supply range means the same BOM entry works on 2.5V, 3.0V, or 3.3V logic rails without a secondary regulator.

6-SMD no-lead package — layout and footprint

The 3.20 mm × 2.50 mm × 0.90 mm 6-SMD no-lead package (0.126" × 0.098" × 0.035") fits the compact footprint used by many Ethernet PHY and FPGA reference oscillators. No lead frame extends beyond the body, so the solder fillet is entirely under the package — the board land pattern must match the recommended stencil aperture to avoid tombstoning during reflow.

Frequently asked questions

Is DSC1103CE2-168.5000T RoHS compliant?

The part is listed as RoHS compliant per the manufacturer's standard declaration for the DSC1103 series.

What is the output logic type for DSC1103CE2-168.5000T?

The output is LVDS (Low-Voltage Differential Signaling), a differential pair that provides good noise immunity for high-speed clock distribution over short PCB traces.
