The DSC1001/3/4 is a silicon MEMS based CMOS family of oscillators that offers excellent jitter and stability performance over a wide range of supply voltages and temperatures. The device operates from 1 MHz to 150 MHz with supply voltages between 1.8 to 3.3 volts and temperature ranges up to –40°C to 105°C.

The DSC1001/3/4 incorporate 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, making the DSC1001/3/4 ideal for rugged, industrial, and portable applications where stress, shock, and vibration can damage quartz crystal based systems. Available in industry standard packages, the DSC1001/3/4 can be “dropped-in” to the same PCB footprint as standard crystal oscillators.

The DSC1003 and DSC1004 have the same functionality and performance as the DSC1001, but feature higher output drives of 25 pF and 40 pF, respectively.
