Product details

MEMS resonator replaces quartz — 50 MHz fixed output

The DSC1522JI3A-50M00000 is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) that delivers a fixed 50 MHz LVCMOS output from a 2.5V to 3.3V supply rail. The MEMS resonator eliminates quartz crystal startup delays and reduces sensitivity to vibration and shock — a practical advantage in industrial and outdoor equipment where a quartz oscillator might fail to start or drift under mechanical stress.

Microchip lists the DSC1522JI3A-50M00000 as Active.

4-VLGA package — board layout note

The 4-VLGA package measures 2.50 mm x 2.00 mm with a seated height of 0.89 mm.

Frequently asked questions

Can the DSC1522JI3A-50M00000 replace a quartz oscillator?

Yes, the MEMS resonator is a drop-in functional replacement for a quartz-based XO at 50 MHz with LVCMOS output. The MEMS version offers faster startup, better shock resistance, and no quartz aging drift, but the pinout and footprint must match the 4-VLGA package — confirm the existing board's pad layout before substituting.
