The DSC6003CI2A-016.0000T is a 16 MHz MEMS-based XO from Microchip's DSC60XX series, delivering a CMOS output with ±25 ppm frequency stability across the full -40°C to 85°C industrial range.
Supply range and current draw
Operating from 1.71 V to 3.63 V, the oscillator runs directly off a 1.8 V or 3.3 V rail without an extra regulator — the 1.71 V minimum gives margin for a 1.8 V supply that dips under load. Maximum supply current is 1.25 mA, roughly one-tenth the draw of a typical 16 MHz quartz oscillator — this matters for battery-powered modules where every milliamp extends sleep life.
Enable/Disable function and package
Housed in a 4-VDFN package measuring 3.20 mm x 2.50 mm, it fits a compact footprint suitable for space-constrained PCBs in automotive camera modules or sensor nodes.
