DSC1003 Low-Power Preceision CMOS Oscillators

Microchip Technology DSC1003 Low-Power Preceision CMOS Oscillators are silicon MEMS-based CMOS oscillators. These oscillators offer excellent jitter and stability performance over a wide range of supply voltages and temperatures. Each device operates from 1 to 150MHz with supply voltages between 1.8V to 3.3V and extended temperatures from -40ºC to +105ºC. The DSC1003 has the same functionality and performance as the DSC1001 but greater output drive (CL <25pf). The DSC1003 incorporates an all silicon resonator that is extremely robust and nearly immune to stress-related fractures, common to crystal-based oscillators. Without sacrificing the performance and stability required of today’s systems, a crystal-less design allows for a higher level of reliability. This feature makes these oscillators ideal for rugged, industrial, and portable applications where stress, shock, and vibration damage quartz crystal-based systems.
