Package and board-fit constraints for the 4-SMD footprint
The DSC6101JI2A-096.0000T: Supply decoupling should follow the MEMS oscillator best practice: a 100 nF ceramic capacitor placed within 2 mm of the VDD pin, with a 1 µF bulk cap nearby if the supply rail also feeds other digital loads.
Obsolete — sourcing through independent distribution
Microchip lists the DSC6101JI2A-096.0000T as Obsolete. For new designs, a functionally equivalent MEMS oscillator in the same 2.5 × 2.0 mm footprint with 96 MHz, CMOS output, and AEC-Q100 grade should be selected from Microchip's current DSC61XX portfolio — the pinout and supply range are consistent across the family, but the exact order code and its lifecycle status must be verified against the latest PCN.
