Microchip Technology DSC12X2/3/4 Standard Clock Oscillators

Microchip Technology DSC12X2/3/4 Standard Clock Oscillators use silicon MEMS technology to reduce close-in noise and provide excellent jitter. The oscillators offer stability over a wide range of supply voltages and temperatures. These MEMS oscillators eliminate the need for quartz or SAW technology. This significantly enhances reliability and accelerates product development. The devices meet stringent clock performance criteria for various communications, storage, and networking applications.
