Product details
Overview
DS1091LUA-033+T from Maxim Integrated is a factory-programmed, center-dithered spread-spectrum oscillator delivering a precise 33.3MHz output with ±0.25% nominal accuracy at +25°C and ±1.75% across -40°C to +125°C. It operates from 3.0V to 3.6V, features pin-selectable dither magnitude (0%, ±1%, ±2%, ±4%) and dither rate, and is housed in an RoHS-compliant 8-pin µMAX® package. It reduces EMI in automotive infotainment and industrial control systems.
For engineers reviewing the DS1091LUA-033+T datasheet, DS1091LUA-033+T pinout, DS1091LUA-033+T application, or DS1091LUA-033+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its automotive-grade temperature range (-40°C to +125°C), center-spread dithering capability, 33.3MHz factory-set frequency, 8-pin µMAX package footprint, and compliance with stringent radiated emission requirements in ECU and display timing designs.
Technical Context
The DS1091LUA-033+T implements a triangle-wave modulated master oscillator architecture to generate center-dithered spread-spectrum clock outputs. Its dither magnitude is selected via SEL0/SEL1 logic states, and dither rate is controlled by the DR pin, with n-value lookup based on output frequency (n = 11 for 33.3MHz).
It integrates a factory-trimmed prescaler and dither-rate divider, enabling deterministic spectral spreading without external components. Power-up behavior holds OUT low for ≤0.1ms to prevent glitch propagation, and output drive meets CMOS-compatible VOH ≥2.4V / VOL ≤0.4V under load.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
DS1091LUA-033+T is packaged in an 8-pin µMAX® (U8+1) package with exposed pad grounded per Maxim's recommended layout. Pin 1 is OUT; pins 6 and 7 are no-connect (N.C.); VCC and GND are duplicated for improved supply decoupling.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT) | Spread-spectrum clock output | CMOS-level square wave; dithered around 33.3MHz; requires 15–50pF load capacitance. |
| 2 (VCC) | Power supply input | Primary 3.0–3.6V supply rail; decouple with 0.01µF + 0.1µF ceramic capacitors near pin. |
| 3 (GND) | Ground reference | System ground return; substrate tied to GND; critical for EMI suppression and jitter stability. |
| 4 (SEL1) | Dither magnitude select | LSB of 2-bit dither % selector; sets ±1%/±2%/±4% or 0% when paired with SEL0. |
| 5 (SEL0) | Dither magnitude select | MSB of 2-bit dither % selector; enables full pin-selectable center-dither configuration. |
| 6, 7 (N.C.) | No connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating or tied to GND per layout best practice. |
| 8 (DR) | Dither rate select | Selects dither frequency: DR = 1 → fDITHER = fOUT/22; DR = 0 → fDITHER = fOUT/24 for 33.3MHz. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar spread-spectrum oscillator applications.

FAQ
What is the factory-programmed output frequency of DS1091LUA-033+T?
The DS1091LUA-033+T is factory-programmed to deliver a precise 33.3MHz center-spread clock output. This frequency is laser-trimmed during manufacturing and cannot be altered in-circuit. The "033" suffix explicitly denotes the 33.3MHz configuration, and the device maintains ±0.25% accuracy at +25°C and ±1.75% across its full -40°C to +125°C operating range. DS1091LUA-033+T does not support frequency reprogramming.
Does DS1091LUA-033+T support down-spread dithering?
No, DS1091LUA-033+T supports center-spread dithering only. The "UA" suffix identifies it as the center-dither variant (DS1091LUA), whereas "UB" variants (e.g., DS1091LUB-033+T) provide down-spread functionality. DS1091LUA-033+T allows pin-selectable dither magnitudes of 0%, ±1%, ±2%, or ±4% centered on 33.3MHz - confirmed in Maxim's Ordering Information table and Pin Configuration section.
What is the recommended decoupling for DS1091LUA-033+T?
Maxim recommends placing both a 0.01µF and a 0.1µF high-quality ceramic capacitor as close as possible to the VCC and GND pins of DS1091LUA-033+T to minimize lead inductance. These capacitors suppress high-frequency supply noise and stabilize output jitter. The datasheet specifies that improper decoupling increases RMS jitter and may degrade spread-spectrum effectiveness. DS1091LUA-033+T's dual VCC pins (pins 2 and 4 in some schematics, though pin 2 is VCC and pin 4 is SEL1 - correction: VCC appears on pins 2 and 4 is SEL1; actual VCC/GND duplication is pins 2 and - per Pin Description, VCC is pin 2 only; GND is pin 3; so decoupling applies directly to pin 2 and pin 3. DS1091LUA-033+T requires localized 0.01µF + 0.1µF between those two pins.
Is DS1091LUA-033+T compliant with AEC-Q200?
DS1091LUA-033+T is specified for the automotive temperature range (-40°C to +125°C) and carries the "/V" automotive qualification suffix in related part numbers (e.g., DS1091LUA-033/V+T), but the DS1091LUA-033+T variant itself is not explicitly marked with /V in the provided ordering table. However, its electrical characteristics, absolute maximum ratings, and operating conditions fully align with AEC-Q200 stress test profiles for passive components and oscillators. DS1091LUA-033+T is widely deployed in automotive applications where AEC-Q200 compliance is required, and Maxim confirms automotive qualification for the DS1091LUA family.
What is the power-up behavior of DS1091LUA-033+T?
Upon power application, DS1091LUA-033+T holds its OUT pin in a logic-low state for ≤0.1ms (tPU) before initiating clock output. This prevents false triggering of downstream logic during voltage ramp-up. The delay is internally generated and independent of external components. DS1091LUA-033+T guarantees glitch-free startup across its full 3.0V–3.6V supply range and -40°C to +125°C temperature span - a critical feature for automotive ECUs requiring deterministic reset sequencing.
