Product details

Active production — 100 MHz HCSL clock source

The DSC1224NL3-100M0000T is an active-production XO (Standard) from Microchip's DSC1224 series, delivering a fixed 100 MHz output in HCSL logic levels. HCSL (High-Speed Current Steering Logic) is the differential clock format used in PCIe reference clocks, 10GbE MAC/PHY interfaces, and FPGA transceiver banks. The 100 MHz frequency lands directly on the reference clock input of many PCIe Gen 1/2/3 root complexes and switch chips — the output swing and common-mode voltage match the HCSL receiver threshold without external level translation.

Supply flexibility and disable function

The supply voltage range spans 2.5V to 3.3V, so the oscillator runs from either a 2.5V or 3.3V rail without a separate regulator.

Industrial temperature grade and 6-VDFN package

The 6-VDFN package measures 7.00 mm x 5.00 mm with a seated height of 0.90 mm — a compact footprint that fits tight board areas, though the 0.50 mm pitch pads require careful solder-paste stencil design to avoid bridging.

No official second-source or pin-compatible cross is listed; the MEMS resonator and HCSL output are specific to this Microchip family.

Frequently asked questions

Does DSC1224NL3-100M0000T work with a 2.5V supply?

Yes. The voltage supply range is 2.5V to 3.3V. The oscillator operates from a 2.5V rail directly — no external regulator needed. The HCSL output swing scales with the supply, so the receiver's V_OD common-mode specification must be checked against the 2.5V level.

What is the difference between DSC1224 and DSC1001?

The DSC1224 series outputs HCSL (differential) while the DSC1001 outputs LVCMOS (single-ended). The DSC1224NL3-100M0000T's 100 MHz HCSL is intended for PCIe or Ethernet reference clocks; the DSC1001 would not drive a differential HCSL input directly. Package and pinout differ — the DSC1224 uses a 6-VDFN, the DSC1001 a 4-SMD. No pin-compatible cross exists between the two families.
