DSC613RI3A-012W

Overview

The DSC613RI3A-012W is a three-output MEMS clock generator from Microchip Technology, utilizing PureSilicon technology to eliminate external crystals. It provides LVCMOS outputs at 16 MHz with high stability of ±20 ppm. The device operates on a supply voltage range of 1.71V to 3.63V and supports an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Packaged in a compact 6-VFLGA (2x1.6mm) surface-mount format, it offers low power consumption of 5.2 mA with all outputs active.

Feature Summary

• MEMS-based architecture eliminates the need for external crystal or reference clock components
• Provides three independent LVCMOS clock outputs within the 2 kHz to 100 MHz frequency range
• Ultra-small package size reduces board space requirements compared to traditional oscillators

Applications

• Embedded systems requiring precise timing without external resonators
• Portable devices benefiting from low power consumption and small form factor
• Industrial applications operating within wide temperature ranges

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific output frequency configuration against the datasheet, as suffixes define internal programming. Confirm package dimensions match PCB footprint requirements. Ensure supply voltage compatibility with system rails. Check for recent product change notifications regarding manufacturing updates. Validate lead times through authorized distributors.

Selection Notes

Select this component when design constraints require eliminating external crystals to save space and reduce BOM complexity. Choose based on the required output frequency stability and LVCMOS interface compatibility. Consider the low power profile for battery-operated applications. Verify that the single PLL structure meets jitter specifications for the target digital loads.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DSC613 series of low-power MEMS clock generators. The series leverages Microchip's PureSilicon technology to replace discrete quartz solutions. These devices integrate the oscillator and buffer functions into a single chip, offering improved reliability and reduced assembly steps compared to traditional oscillator modules.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other DSC613 variants with different frequency configurations, such as DSC613RI3A-0131T. Cross-reference pinouts and electrical characteristics before substitution. Ensure the alternative part maintains the same 6-VFLGA package and LVCMOS output levels.
