Low-power standby and supply flexibility
The DSC6013ME2A-PROGRAMMABLE: Typical current draw is 1.3 mA during operation, dropping to 12 µA max in standby mode via the Standby function pin. That standby current is low enough for battery-powered designs that spend most of their time asleep, waking only to transmit or sample. Frequency stability is ±25 ppm total, which covers temperature, supply, and aging for most MCU and SoC clocking needs.
Sourcing reality — obsolete, no direct replacement
Microchip has discontinued the DSC6013ME2A-PROGRAMMABLE with no official successor part number. That means new designs should avoid it, and existing BOM lines will need to source through independent surplus or broker channels. No pin-compatible drop-in from Microchip exists, so a board spin or a parametric search for a similar MEMS oscillator from another vendor (same 2.0x1.6mm footprint, 1.71-3.63V supply, CMOS output) is the realistic path for volume production.
