• Portable devices requiring precise clocks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific output frequency configuration required for your application, as this part is factory-configured. Confirm that the 20 ppm stability meets your system's jitter and phase noise requirements. Ensure the 1.71 V to 3.63 V supply voltage range aligns with your power rails. Check the latest datasheet for any recent product change notifications or pinout updates before finalizing the design.

Selection Notes

Select this component when dual independent clock signals are needed from a single source. It is suitable for designs prioritizing small footprint due to its 1.6x1.2 mm size. Choose this over discrete oscillators if lower power consumption and higher reliability are critical. Consider the 20 ppm accuracy for applications where moderate frequency stability is sufficient without complex calibration.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DSC612 series of MEMS-based clock generators. It replaces traditional quartz crystal oscillators in many modern applications. The series offers flexibility in frequency selection while maintaining low power profiles. It is part of Microchip's portfolio of timing solutions designed for space-constrained and energy-efficient electronic designs.

Replacement Considerations

Check Microchip's official documentation for direct cross-reference recommendations. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications against potential substitutes. Ensure the replacement maintains the same LVCMOS output levels and package dimensions.
