Product details

Microchip lists the DSC6001HI2A-042.0000 as Obsolete. Do not plan a new design around this order code.

Rated AEC-Q100, this oscillator was qualified for automotive stress and reliability requirements.

Key ratings for clock-tree fit

42 MHz fixed frequency with CMOS output drives MCU clock inputs, Ethernet PHY reference clocks, or FPGA PLLs directly — no external load capacitors needed, unlike a quartz crystal. Frequency stability of ±25 ppm keeps the clock edge within tight timing margins for 100BASE-T or USB full-speed interfaces. Supply voltage spans 1.71 V to 3.63 V, so the same part works on 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V rails without a level translator.

Package and board layout note

Housed in a 4-SMD, No Lead package measuring 1.60 mm x 1.20 mm with a seated height of 0.89 mm. The small footprint suits space-constrained automotive modules.

Frequently asked questions

What is the replacement for DSC6001HI2A-042.0000?

The DSC60XX series includes other frequencies and stability grades, but a direct drop-in at 42 MHz with the same AEC-Q100 rating is not listed. A board spin or a different MEMS oscillator family would be required for new designs.

Can DSC6001HI2A-042.0000 be used in automotive applications?

Yes — it carries AEC-Q100 qualification and operates from -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for automotive cabin and under-hood environments within that temperature range. The MEMS resonator provides inherent vibration resistance compared to quartz.
