Product details

AEC-Q100 grade and under-hood temperature profile

The DSC1201DA3-PROGT: Rated AEC-Q100 and specified across -40 to 125°C, this MEMS XO is qualified for engine-bay ECUs where the ambient temperature exceeds 105°C on a summer grade. The 125°C ceiling leaves margin for self-heating inside a sealed module.

Programmable blank — frequency set at programming

Supplied as a blank device (User Must Program), the DSC1201DA3-PROGT accepts any output frequency from 2.5 MHz to 170 MHz. One inventory line covers multiple BOM positions; the frequency is written during board-level programming or pre-programmed by the distributor. The 2.25 V to 3.63 V supply range matches common automotive 3.3 V and 2.5 V rails without an external LDO.

Standby function and package footprint

A Standby (Power Down) pin reduces current draw to near-zero when the ECU enters sleep mode — the oscillator wakes on a logic-level transition without a power-on re-initialization delay. Housed in a 6-VDFN measuring 2.50 mm x 2.00 mm x 0.90 mm, the package fits tight PCB layouts common in automotive camera modules and sensor nodes.

Frequently asked questions

Is DSC1201DA3-PROGT obsolete or has a replacement been announced?

No. The product status is Active, and no successor or EOL notice exists for the DSC12X1 series.

What is the frequency range of DSC1201DA3-PROGT?

The blank device can be programmed to any frequency between 2.5 MHz and 170 MHz.

Is DSC1201DA3-PROGT AEC-Q100 qualified?

Yes, it carries an AEC-Q100 rating, making it suitable for automotive applications requiring the -40 to 125°C temperature grade.

How do I program the DSC1201DA3-PROGT?

The device is a blank MEMS oscillator that requires programming via Microchip's TimeFlash or a compatible programmer. The output frequency, pull range, and other settings are written into the non-volatile memory before assembly.
