DSC8103DI2T

Overview

The DSC8103DI2T is a MEMS-based programmable oscillator manufactured by Microchip Technology. It operates within a frequency range of 10 MHz to 460 MHz and supports LVDS output signals. The device functions on a supply voltage ranging from 2.25 V to 3.6 V. It features high frequency stability with a tolerance of ±25 PPM and utilizes a low-power standby mode consuming 95 µA. The component is housed in a compact 6-SMD, No Lead package suitable for surface-mount applications.

Feature Summary

• MEMS technology provides robust frequency stability and reliability
• Programmable frequency generation up to 460 MHz
• LVDS output interface for high-speed signal integrity
• Low power consumption with dedicated standby mode

Applications

• High-speed digital communication interfaces
• Network equipment clocking systems
• Industrial control system timing references
• Telecommunications infrastructure components

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific frequency configuration and output type required for your design before ordering. Confirm that the LVDS output matches your receiver input specifications. Ensure the supply voltage range aligns with your system's power rails. Check the package dimensions against your PCB footprint requirements. Validate the operating temperature range for your intended environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise, programmable clock source is needed for high-frequency digital circuits. The LVDS output is ideal for reducing noise in dense layouts. Consider the 25 PPM stability for sensitive timing applications. Evaluate the 95 µA standby current if power management is critical. Compare against fixed-frequency oscillators if reprogramming flexibility is not required.

Part Context

This part belongs to Microchip's DSC8103 series of MEMS programmable oscillators. These devices replace traditional crystal oscillators with more flexible solutions. The series offers various output types and frequency ranges. The DI2T suffix indicates a specific tape-and-reel packaging option. This family is designed for modern electronics requiring compact timing sources.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other DSC8103 variants with matching pinouts and electrical characteristics. Verify that substitute parts support the same LVDS output format. Ensure the replacement maintains the 10 MHz to 460 MHz frequency range. Check compatibility with the 2.25 V to 3.6 V supply voltage. Confirm the 6-SMD package dimensions match the existing PCB layout.
