Product details

It operates from a 1.71 V to 3.63 V supply and draws 1.3 mA typical, making it suited for low-power clocking in automotive body electronics, infotainment, or ADAS sensor modules where the -20°C to 70°C ambient covers the passenger cabin. The 4-SMD no-lead package measures 1.60 mm x 1.20 mm with a seated height of 0.89 mm, fitting space-constrained boards typical of compact camera modules or keyless-entry transceivers.

Obsolete status and sourcing reality

A board-spin migration to a current Microchip MEMS oscillator (e.g., the DSC60XXB series) is the recommended path for new designs, though pin-compatibility should be verified against the original footprint.

AEC-Q100 and temperature grade fit

The AEC-Q100 qualification means this oscillator passed automotive-grade stress tests (preconditioning, temperature cycling, ESD), but the -20°C to 70°C operating range limits it to cabin or climate-controlled compartments — not under-hood or engine-bay locations where -40°C to 125°C parts are required. The ±25 ppm total frequency stability includes initial tolerance, temperature drift, and aging, which is adequate for CAN, LIN, and most MCU clock trees but may not meet the tighter ±10 ppm needed for high-speed USB or Ethernet PHY reference clocks.

Frequently asked questions

Is the DSC6003HE2A-PROGRAMMABLE obsolete, and what is its replacement?

Yes, Microchip has marked the DSC6003HE2A-PROGRAMMABLE as Obsolete. No direct pin-compatible replacement is listed by the manufacturer. For new designs, consider the current DSC60XXB series from Microchip; verify the package and pinout against your layout before committing.

Can the DSC6003HE2A-PROGRAMMABLE be programmed after purchase?

The part is factory-programmable to a specific frequency within the 1 MHz to 80 MHz range. Once programmed, the frequency is fixed — it cannot be field-reprogrammed. Ordering requires specifying the desired output frequency at time of purchase.
