Product details
Overview
DS1091LUA-10A/V+T from Maxim Integrated is an automotive-grade spread-spectrum clock oscillator delivering a factory-programmed center-dithered output at 10.38MHz, ±0.25% nominal accuracy, -40°C to +125°C operation, and 3.0V–3.6V supply. It reduces EMI in infotainment and display systems via pin-selectable dither magnitude (0%, ±1%, ±2%, ±4%) and rate.
For engineers reviewing the DS1091LUA-10A/V+T datasheet, DS1091LUA-10A/V+T pinout, DS1091LUA-10A/V+T application, or DS1091LUA-10A/V+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q200-compliant temperature range, µMAX® 8-pin package, center-spread capability, and dither configurability without external components.
Technical Context
The DS1091LUA-10A/V+T integrates a factory-trimmed master oscillator with a triangle-wave generator that modulates frequency to produce center-spread output. Its dither magnitude is set by SEL0/SEL1 logic states, and dither rate is controlled by DR pin state per output-frequency-dependent lookup table (n = 7 for 10.38MHz).
It operates as a self-contained clock source with no external timing components required. Power-up behavior holds OUT low for ≤0.1ms before stable oscillation, ensuring glitch-free initialization in automotive microcontroller clock domains.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Frequency | 10.38MHz - factory-programmed center-spread clock for EMI reduction in display timing and MCU peripherals |
| Frequency Accuracy | ±0.25% at +25°C - ensures reliable timing margin for synchronous interfaces like LVDS or parallel RGB |
| Temp/Voltage Stability | ±1.75% across -40°C to +125°C and 3.0V–3.6V - maintains system timing integrity under automotive thermal and supply stress |
| Supply Voltage | 3.0V–3.6V - compatible with automotive 3.3V rail systems without level-shifting or regulation overhead |
| Output Rise/Fall Time | 1.02ns / 1.13ns at 12pF - supports clean edge delivery into high-speed digital loads with minimal jitter contribution |
| Power-Up Time | ≤0.1ms - eliminates false clock edges during cold-start or reset sequences in safety-critical modules |
| Package | 8-pin µMAX® (U8+1) - RoHS-compliant, 3mm × 3mm surface-mount footprint with GND-connected substrate for thermal and EMI performance |
Pinout & Package
DS1091LUA-10A/V+T is housed in an 8-pin µMAX® package (outline 21-0036, land pattern 90-0092), with exposed substrate tied to GND for improved thermal dissipation and EMI shielding.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT) | Spread-spectrum clock output | CMOS-compatible square wave; drives up to 15pF load with 50% duty cycle at 10.38MHz |
| 2 (VCC) | Positive supply input | 3.0V–3.6V power rail; requires local 0.01µF + 0.1µF ceramic decoupling per datasheet recommendation |
| 3 (GND) | Ground reference | Substrate-connected ground plane; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling |
| 4 (SEL1), 5 (SEL0) | Dither magnitude select inputs | Logic-level inputs defining ±1%, ±2%, ±4%, or 0% center-spread; pulled high/low externally to configure EMI profile |
| 6, 7 (N.C.) | No connection | Internally unconnected; PCB pads may be left floating or grounded for mechanical stability - no electrical function |
| 8 (DR) | Dither rate select input | Configures dither frequency: DR = 1 yields ~10.4kHz dither rate for 10.38MHz fOUT (n = 7 per Table 2) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Center-spread spectrum output | Reduces peak radiated emissions by up to 14dB at 33.3MHz carrier (±4% dither), enabling compliance with CISPR 25 Class 5 in compact automotive displays |

| Automotive temperature range | Validated operation from -40°C to +125°C ambient enables direct placement near hot ECUs or display drivers without derating |
| Factory-trimmed frequency | 10.38MHz output guaranteed within ±0.25% at +25°C - removes post-manufacturing calibration steps in production test |
| Low-power active mode | 16mA typical ICC at 3.6V/66.6MHz (scaled proportionally at lower frequencies) - suitable for always-on infotainment subsystems with thermal constraints |
Applications

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 (up to 3 outputs); requires external crystal and configuration firmware | Supports multi-frequency synthesis but lacks automotive qualification and integrated spread-spectrum dither control | Choose when flexible multi-output clock tree needed; avoid if AEC-Q200 compliance or zero-config dither is mandatory |
| ICS843002AGI-01LFT | Fixed 10MHz LVDS output; ±50ppm stability; no spread-spectrum capability; -40°C to +85°C industrial grade | Lower EMI mitigation capability; insufficient temperature range for under-hood or dashboard mounting | Choose only for non-automotive industrial HMIs where EMI is managed externally and ambient stays below +85°C |
Compared with Si5351A-B-GM and ICS843002AGI-01LFT, DS1091LUA-10A/V+T delivers automotive-qualified, pin-configurable spread-spectrum operation at 10.38MHz in a single 8-pin µMAX® package - eliminating firmware dependencies, external crystals, and thermal derating concerns.

FAQ
What is the factory-programmed output frequency of DS1091LUA-10A/V+T?
The DS1091LUA-10A/V+T is factory-programmed to deliver a precise 10.38MHz center-spread clock signal. This frequency is laser-trimmed during manufacturing and guaranteed within ±0.25% at +25°C. The "10A" suffix explicitly denotes this 10.38MHz variant, distinct from other DS1091LUA models such as -027 (27.0MHz) or -033 (33.3MHz).
Does DS1091LUA-10A/V+T support down-spread spectrum mode?
No, DS1091LUA-10A/V+T supports center-spread spectrum only. The "UA" suffix identifies it as part of the DS1091LUA family, which is configured for center-dithered output (±1%, ±2%, ±4%). Down-spread variants carry the "UB" suffix (e.g., DS1091LUB-016/V+T) and provide asymmetric dithering (-2%, -4%, -8%). Mixing UA/UB functionality is not supported.
What is the maximum load capacitance supported by DS1091LUA-10A/V+T?
DS1091LUA-10A/V+T is characterized for operation with load capacitances from 15pF to 50pF. At 10.38MHz, the output driver maintains specified rise/fall times and duty cycle within this range. Exceeding 50pF may degrade edge rate and increase jitter; for heavier loads, consider adding a dedicated buffer stage rather than relying on the oscillator's native drive strength.
How is the dither rate selected on DS1091LUA-10A/V+T?
The dither rate on DS1091LUA-10A/V+T is selected using the DR pin: DR = logic high selects the faster dither rate, DR = logic low selects the slower rate. For 10.38MHz output, Table 2 specifies n = 7, yielding dither frequencies of ~10.4kHz (DR = 1) and ~5.2kHz (DR = 0). These values are derived from fDITHER = fOUT/2n and are fixed per output frequency bin.
Is DS1091LUA-10A/V+T qualified to AEC-Q200 standards?
Yes, DS1091LUA-10A/V+T is AEC-Q200 qualified. The "/V" in the part number explicitly denotes automotive qualification, covering full testing across -40°C to +125°C operation, robustness against thermal cycling, humidity bias, and mechanical shock. This qualification is documented in Maxim's official ordering information and supported by test reports available upon request.
