MEMS-based XO with LVDS — what sets it apart
The DSC8123AI5T: The available frequency range spans 10 MHz to 460 MHz with a tight ±10 ppm stability, so one BOM line can serve multiple data rates by programming the blank device.
User-programmable — plan for programming
This is a blank (user-programmable) device — it ships without a frequency set. The buyer must factor in a programming step (Microchip's TimeFlash or a third-party programmer) before the oscillator goes onto the pick-and-place line. That adds a handling step but also lets one stock-keeping unit cover multiple frequency variants across the BOM.
Package and board-fit
The footprint is standard for MEMS oscillators in this class — compatible with reflow profiles for lead-free solder.
