Product details

Its AEC-Q100 qualification means this part meets automotive-grade reliability testing — not just a 'capable' industrial part dressed up for the engine bay. The 1.71V–3.63V supply range lets it run off a 1.8V or 3.3V rail without a separate regulator, simplifying the power tree.

Temperature range and frequency stability for harsh environments

The ±50ppm frequency stability holds the clock within 400 Hz at 8 MHz across temperature and voltage, which is tight enough for a CAN bus or a basic MCU crystal input without needing an external trim.

Package and supply current for space-constrained boards

Housed in a 4-VLGA package measuring 2.50mm x 2.00mm, the DSC6003JL1B-008.0000T fits into compact layouts where a quartz crystal plus load capacitors would take up twice the area.

Active lifecycle and automotive compliance

Product status is Active — Microchip continues to manufacture this part, and it is suitable for new designs. The AEC-Q100 rating means the oscillator underwent the full suite of automotive stress tests. Surface-mount assembly on a 4-VLGA footprint — standard reflow profiles apply.

Frequently asked questions

Is the DSC6003JL1B-008.0000T AEC-Q100 qualified?

Yes, it carries AEC-Q100 ratings. This means it has passed automotive-grade reliability testing, including temperature cycling, ESD, and latch-up. It is qualified for use in automotive applications, not just 'automotive-capable'.

What is the difference between this MEMS oscillator and a quartz crystal?

The DSC6003JL1B-008.0000T uses a MEMS resonator instead of a quartz crystal. MEMS oscillators typically offer faster start-up, better shock and vibration resistance, and a smaller footprint (2.50mm x 2.00mm,) compared to a quartz crystal with external load capacitors. The trade-off is that the frequency stability (±50ppm,) is fixed at the factory — you cannot trim it externally like a quartz crystal with adjustable load caps.
