Product details
Overview
DS1091LUA-055/V+T from Maxim Integrated is an automotive-grade, factory-programmed spread-spectrum clock oscillator delivering a center-dithered 55.4MHz output with ±0.25% nominal accuracy at +25°C and ±1.75% over -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 a lead(Pb)-free 8-pin µMAX® package. It reduces EMI in automotive infotainment and industrial control timing paths.
For engineers reviewing the DS1091LUA-055/V+T datasheet, DS1091LUA-055/V+T pinout, DS1091LUA-055/V+T application, or DS1091LUA-055/V+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its center-spread spectrum profile, automotive temperature qualification (-40°C to +125°C), factory-trimmed 55.4MHz frequency, and pin-configurable dither control for EMI compliance in noise-sensitive systems.
Technical Context
The DS1091LUA-055/V+T implements a triangle-wave modulated master oscillator architecture to generate center-dithered spread-spectrum output. Its dither magnitude is set by SEL0/SEL1 logic states, and dither rate is selected via the DR pin, with n-value scaling dependent on output frequency per Table 2.
It integrates factory-programmed frequency generation with no external components required. Power-up behavior holds OUT low for ≤0.1ms to prevent spurious transitions, and it supports load capacitance up to 50pF while maintaining 40–60% duty cycle across its operating range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Frequency | 55.4 MHz - factory-programmed center frequency, enabling precise system clocking without external tuning. |
| Frequency Accuracy | ±0.25% at +25°C - ensures tight initial timing alignment for high-speed digital interfaces. |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood and dashboard-mounted automotive electronics. |
| Supply Voltage | 3.0 V to 3.6 V - compatible with modern automotive 3.3V power domains and tolerant of rail variation. |
| Dither Type | Center-dithered - spreads energy symmetrically around 55.4MHz to suppress narrowband EMI peaks. |
| Dither Magnitude | Pin-selectable: 0%, ±1%, ±2%, ±4% - allows trade-off between EMI reduction and jitter tolerance in final design. |

| 1 | OUT | CMOS-compatible spread-spectrum clock output; drives 15pF–50pF loads with <1.13ns fall time. |
| 2 | VCC | Main supply input (3.0V–3.6V); requires local 0.01µF + 0.1µF ceramic decoupling per datasheet recommendation. |
| 3 | GND | Ground reference; substrate tied to GND for stable oscillation and EMI control. |
| 4 | SEL1 | Dither magnitude MSB input; logic level selects ±1%/±2%/±4% or no dither per Table 1. |
| 5 | SEL0 | Dither magnitude LSB input; used with SEL1 to configure four discrete dither percentages. |
| 6, 7 | N.C. | No internal connection; must remain unconnected and unbonded on PCB layout. |
| 8 | DR | Dither rate selector; sets modulation frequency as function of fOUT and n-value from Table 2. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar spread-spectrum oscillator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si5351A-B-GM | Programmable I²C clock generator (not factory-trimmed); supports multiple outputs; higher power consumption (20mA typical). | Requires microcontroller configuration; suited for multi-frequency systems, not drop-in replacement. | Choose when flexible frequency synthesis and multiple clocks are needed; not suitable for pin-compatible 55.4MHz replacement. |
| ICS843002AGI-01LFT | Fixed 55.4MHz LVDS oscillator with ±50ppm stability; no spread-spectrum capability; operates only to +85°C. | Lacks EMI reduction; limited temperature range excludes automotive under-hood use. | Choose only for non-automotive, non-EMI-critical applications where LVDS signaling and tighter ppm stability are prioritized. |
Compared with Si5351A-B-GM and ICS843002AGI-01LFT, DS1091LUA-055/V+T provides factory-set 55.4MHz center-spread operation with automotive temperature range and zero-configuration deployment-making it optimal for EMI-constrained, high-reliability single-clock systems.

FAQ
What is the factory-programmed output frequency of DS1091LUA-055/V+T?
The DS1091LUA-055/V+T is factory-programmed to deliver a precise 55.4MHz center-dithered spread-spectrum clock output. This frequency is trimmed and verified during manufacturing and cannot be altered in-circuit. The "055" suffix explicitly denotes the 55.4MHz specification, and the device requires no external configuration to operate at this frequency.
Does DS1091LUA-055/V+T support down-spread spectrum mode?
No, DS1091LUA-055/V+T supports center-spread spectrum only. The "UA" suffix identifies it as the center-dither variant (DS1091LUA); down-dither variants carry the "UB" suffix (e.g., DS1091LUB-055/V+T). Pin configurations and internal modulation architecture differ between UA and UB versions, and they are not interchangeable.
What are the absolute maximum ratings for VCC and input pins on DS1091LUA-055/V+T?
The DS1091LUA-055/V+T has an absolute maximum VCC rating of -0.5V to +6.0V relative to GND. Input pins (SEL0, SEL1, DR) tolerate -0.5V to (VCC + 0.5V), with the caveat that this upper limit must not exceed +6.0V. Exceeding these ratings may cause permanent damage, and operation outside recommended conditions (-40°C to +125°C, 3.0V–3.6V) is not guaranteed.
How is dither magnitude selected on DS1091LUA-055/V+T?
Dither magnitude on DS1091LUA-055/V+T is selected using the logic states of SEL0 and SEL1 pins per Table 1 in the datasheet: SEL1=0/SEL0=0 → 0% dither; SEL1=0/SEL0=1 → ±1%; SEL1=1/SEL0=0 → ±2%; SEL1=1/SEL0=1 → ±4%. These pins are CMOS-compatible and must be hard-wired to VCC or GND - no pull-ups or floating connections are permitted.
Is DS1091LUA-055/V+T compliant with automotive qualification standards?
Yes, DS1091LUA-055/V+T carries the "/V" suffix indicating full automotive qualification per AEC-Q100 Grade 0 requirements. It is specified and tested across -40°C to +125°C, features lead(Pb)-free packaging ("+"), and is supplied in tape-and-reel format ("T") for automated assembly - meeting all critical criteria for automotive electronics deployment.
