Product details

100 MHz HCSL MEMS XO for PCIe clock trees

HCSL (High-Speed Current Steering Logic) delivers a 0.7 V swing into a 50-Ω termination to ground, which is the native input requirement for PCIe Gen1/2/3 PHYs and many FPGA SERDES blocks. Using an LVDS oscillator here would require an additional resistor network to shift the common mode.

MEMS resonator vs quartz — the reliability trade-off

Supply voltage spans 2.25V to 3.6V, so the same BOM line works across 2.5V and 3.3V rails without a separate regulator.

Frequently asked questions

What is the output type of the DSC1124AL2-100.0000T?

HCSL (High-Speed Current Steering Logic) — the standard differential output for PCIe reference clocks. It requires a 50-Ω termination to ground on each output leg.

Is the DSC1124AL2-100.0000T a MEMS oscillator?

Yes — the base resonator is MEMS, not quartz. This gives better resistance to vibration and aging drift compared to a quartz XO with the same ±25ppm stability.

Does the DSC1124AL2-100.0000T have an enable/disable function?

Yes — the Enable/Disable pin puts the output into high-Z and reduces supply current from 42 mA to 22 mA.
