Product details

MEMS oscillator with LVDS output for 120 MHz clock trees

The DSC1203NE3-120M0000 is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) that delivers a 120 MHz LVDS output with ±20 ppm frequency stability across its -20°C to 70°C operating range. It belongs to the DSC12X3 series and accepts a supply voltage from 2.25 V to 3.63 V, covering common 2.5 V and 3.3 V rails without an external regulator.

Standby mode cuts supply current to 5 µA

This makes the part suitable for battery-powered equipment where the clock can be gated between active bursts, such as portable instrumentation or wireless sensor nodes.

6-VDFN package and surface-mount footprint

Housed in a 6-VDFN package measuring 7.00 mm x 5.00 mm with a seated height of 0.90 mm, the DSC1203NE3-120M0000 is a standard surface-mount oscillator footprint. The low profile suits dense PCB layouts where clearance above the board is constrained, such as blade servers or compact RF modules.

Frequently asked questions

Can the DSC1203NE3-120M0000 run on a 3.3 V supply?

Yes. The supply voltage range is 2.25 V to 3.63 V, so both 2.5 V and 3.3 V rails are within spec without an external regulator.

What is the standby current of the DSC1203NE3-120M0000?

When the standby (power down) function is asserted, the maximum supply current drops to 5 µA. Active current is 32 mA typical.

What is the output type of the DSC1203NE3-120M0000?

It is an LVDS output oscillator. LVDS provides low noise and high-speed signal integrity for 120 MHz clock distribution over short PCB traces.
