Overview

The DSC1001AI2-016.0000 is a 16 MHz silicon MEMS based oscillator designed to replace standard crystal oscillators. It provides a CMOS output and features a wide supply voltage range from 1.7V to 3.6V. This component is housed in a 7.0mm x 5.0mm VDFN package and is rated for the extended industrial temperature range of -40C to +85C.

Why Choose This Part

The MEMS architecture eliminates the common startup issues and vibration sensitivity associated with quartz crystals. It offers a tight +/-25ppm frequency stability across the full supply voltage range. The standby function reduces power consumption significantly, making it ideal for energy-sensitive designs.

Applications

Embedded System Clocking
Provides a stable 16 MHz reference clock for microcontrollers and digital signal processors in industrial environments.
Low-Power Handhelds
Utilizes the standby power-down mode to conserve battery life in portable electronics when the clock is not required.
High-Shock Environments
Leverages MEMS resonator technology which offers superior reliability and mechanical shock resistance compared to traditional quartz crystals.

Getting Started

To implement this oscillator, connect the VDD pin to a decoupled 1.8V to 3.3V supply and ensure the Standby pin is pulled high for normal operation. The 7.0mm x 5.0mm footprint is a standard size for drop-in replacement on boards designed for 4-pin surface mount oscillators. No external load capacitors are required as the CMOS output is designed to drive the trace directly.
