Microchip Technology DSC612 2-Output MEMS Clock Generators

Microchip DSC612 2-Output MEMS Clock Generators are crystal-less™, offering low power and an ultra-small footprint. The DSC612 is factory-configurable and generates up to two independent LVCMOS outputs that can be configured to generate any frequency from 2kHz to 100MHz. Implementing Microchip’s proven PureSilicon™ MEMS technology, the DSC612 provides low jitter and high stability across various supply voltages and temperatures. The crystal-less clock generators significantly enhance reliability and accelerate product development. The two control inputs can be configured to function with the output enable/disable, standby, sleep, spread spectrum enable, and frequency selected.

The DSC612 spread spectrum function includes both center and down spreading. Microchip’s ClockWorks Configurator must be used to choose the necessary options, create the final part number, datasheet, and order samples. The Microchip DSC612 2-Output MEMS Clock Generators is available in space-saving 6-pin, 1.6mm x 1.2mm, 2.0mm x 1.6mm, and 2.5mm x 2.0mm VFLGA plastic packages.
