Procurement Notes

Verify current availability status directly with authorized distributors or the manufacturer, as lead times and stock levels for this specific part number may vary. Confirm that the ordering suffix matches the required package and temperature grade specifications before finalizing procurement orders to ensure compatibility with existing designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed-frequency clock source is required with minimal external components. Ensure the application voltage aligns with the 3V operating range. Consider the package type and thermal requirements relative to the target PCB layout. Verify that the output frequency stability meets the system's timing tolerance requirements.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DS1073 series of EconOscillators, which are designed to provide simple, low-cost clock solutions. The series typically includes variants with different output frequencies or package options, serving as alternatives to more complex programmable clock generators in basic timing applications.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible substitutes within the DS1073 family or similar EconOscillator lines from Analog Devices/Maxim Integrated. Verify that any replacement maintains the same output frequency and package dimensions to avoid PCB redesign.
