Product details

Dual-frequency MEMS XO — two clocks from one package

The DSC400-0401Q0103KE1: This is a MEMS-based XO (Standard) that generates two independent output frequencies from a single silicon resonator: 12.288 MHz on output 1 and 100 MHz on output 2.

Output logic: HCSL and LVCMOS on the same device

The DSC400-0401Q0103KE1 supports both HCSL and LVCMOS output logic levels, letting one oscillator serve a PCIe reference clock (HCSL) and a general-purpose logic clock (LVCMOS) without a second timing component. The supply voltage range of 2.25 V to 3.6 V covers 2.5 V and 3.3 V rails, and the enable/disable function allows the outputs to be tri-stated for power sequencing or test modes.

Housed in a 20-VFQFN with exposed pad (5.00 mm x 3.20 mm, 0.90 mm height), the package provides a low-inductance ground path through the centre pad — important for signal integrity at 100 MHz HCSL edge rates.

Frequently asked questions

What are the exact output frequencies of the DSC400-0401Q0103KE1?

Output 1 is 12.288 MHz; output 2 is 100 MHz.

What output logic levels does the DSC400-0401Q0103KE1 support?

It supports both HCSL and LVCMOS logic levels on the same device.

Is the DSC400-0401Q0103KE1 a direct replacement for a standard quartz oscillator?

Functionally yes — it is a drop-in XO replacement that does not require load-capacitance matching or external feedback components. The MEMS resonator eliminates quartz aging drift and is more resistant to vibration and shock.

Does the DSC400-0401Q0103KE1 have an enable/disable function?

Yes, the part includes an enable/disable function that can tri-state the outputs.
