Automotive-grade MEMS oscillator for harsh environments
The DSC1221DA3-21M00000T: AEC-Q100 qualification means this oscillator has passed the reliability stress tests required for under-hood and chassis-domain electronics — engine control units, transmission sensors, and ADAS modules where a quartz crystal might suffer from shock or vibration.
Supply flexibility and enable/disable control
Operating from a 2.25V to 3.63V supply, the oscillator can be powered directly from a 2.5V, 3.0V, or 3.3V rail without an intermediate regulator — useful for mixed-voltage designs where the clock rail is shared with the MCU or transceiver. The enable/disable function lets the system gate the clock output for power saving or test modes; when disabled, the supply current drops to 23 mA typ, which is still relatively high — this is a power-on gating feature, not a deep-sleep trick.
Housed in a 6-VDFN package measuring 2.50 mm x 2.00 mm with a seated height of 0.90 mm, this oscillator fits space-constrained automotive modules like radar sensors or camera ECUs where board real estate is at a premium.
