Product details

125 MHz LVPECL MEMS oscillator — active, production-ready

The DSC1122BE1-125.0000T is a 125 MHz MEMS-based XO (Standard) from Microchip's DSC1122 series, delivering an LVPECL output with ±50 ppm frequency stability. It operates from a 2.25V to 3.6V supply, covering both 2.5V and 3.3V rails without an extra regulator, and draws 58 mA max at 125 MHz. The MEMS resonator eliminates quartz start-up delays and is less sensitive to vibration — a practical advantage in networking switches, test equipment, and industrial controllers where the 125 MHz frequency is a common Ethernet reference clock.

The wide 2.25V–3.6V supply range means the same BOM line can serve designs with 2.5V or 3.3V core logic — no need to qualify a separate voltage variant.

Housed in a 6-SMD, No Lead package measuring 5.00mm x 3.20mm with a seated height of 0.90mm — a standard footprint that matches many quartz oscillator pads.

Frequently asked questions

Is the DSC1122BE1-125.0000T a drop-in replacement for a quartz oscillator?

The package (6-SMD, 5.00mm x 3.20mm) and pinout are standard for 6-pin oscillators, so it often fits the same PCB footprint as quartz XOs. However, LVPECL output requires proper termination (50 Ω to VCC-2V) and AC-coupling — the board must already support LVPECL or be designed for it. Confirm the termination network before substituting.

What is the output type and supply voltage range?

Output is LVPECL. Supply voltage range is 2.25V to 3.6V, covering 2.5V and 3.3V rails. The Enable/Disable function is standard.

Is the DSC1122BE1-125.0000T compatible with a 3.3V supply?

Yes — the 2.25V–3.6V range includes 3.3V. The LVPECL output levels scale with the supply; at 3.3V the swing is about 800 mV peak-to-peak, typical for LVPECL.
