Product details

Active production, AEC-Q100 qualified MEMS oscillator

The DSC6001JA3B-580K000T is an active-production MEMS-based XO from Microchip's DSC60XXB series, delivering a 580 kHz CMOS output with ±20 ppm frequency stability across the full -40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range.

MEMS resonator vs. quartz: what the rating means for the BOM

This gives the oscillator inherent immunity to vibration-induced frequency shifts and microphonics — a known failure mode for quartz crystals in engine-bay or transmission-mounted modules. The trade-off is that the MEMS die's aging characteristic differs from quartz; the datasheet's long-term stability figure should be reviewed against the application's 15-year life requirement. The 1.71 V to 3.63 V supply range covers 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V logic rails without an external regulator — one BOM line serves multiple voltage domains across a platform.

Package and layout: 4-VLGA footprint

Housed in a 4-VLGA package measuring 2.50 mm × 2.00 mm with a seated height of 0.89 mm. The land pattern is a standard 4-pad LGA — no via-in-pad required, but the small footprint demands tight solder-paste registration during reflow.

Frequently asked questions

Is the DSC6001JA3B-580K000T AEC-Q100 qualified?

Yes, the device carries AEC-Q100 qualification, covering the automotive-grade temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. This qualifies it for under-hood and chassis-domain applications where standard commercial oscillators would not be accepted.

Is the DSC6001JA3B-580K000T equivalent to a standard quartz oscillator?

Functionally it is a direct replacement for a 580 kHz quartz XO with CMOS output, but the MEMS resonator offers better shock and vibration tolerance. The pinout and footprint (4-VLGA) differ from common quartz packages — confirm the land pattern matches your PCB layout before substitution.
