Product details
Overview
511ECB-ABAG from Skyworks Solutions is a factory-programmed, low-jitter crystal oscillator (XO) with DSPLL-based frequency synthesis, delivering 100 kHz to 250 MHz output across ±30 ppm total stability (including 10-year aging), 3.3 V supply, LVDS output, and operation from –40°C to +85°C in a 5 × 7 mm surface-mount package. It serves as a high-reliability timing source for PCIe, Gigabit Ethernet, and FPGA clocking.
For engineers reviewing the 511ECB-ABAG datasheet, 511ECB-ABAG pinout, 511ECB-ABAG application, or 511ECB-ABAG equivalent, this page provides verified pin functions, real-world jitter performance (0.25 ps RMS phase jitter, 12 kHz–20 MHz), package dimensions, differential LVDS drive capability, and validated alternatives for timing-critical embedded and telecom designs.
Technical Context
The 511ECB-ABAG implements Skyworks' DSPLL architecture with a fixed internal crystal and digital synthesizer, enabling any-frequency programmability without custom crystals. Its on-chip LDO regulator provides supply noise rejection up to 3.5 ps added jitter at 1 MHz noise injection.
It supports LVDS differential signaling with 0.25–0.45 VPPSE swing, 48–52% duty cycle, and 350–800 ps rise/fall time (20–80% VDD). Startup time is ≤10 ms, and disable/enable times are ≤5 µs and ≤20 µs respectively for frequencies ≥10 MHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Frequency | Configured at factory; supports 100 kHz to 250 MHz - enables single-part flexibility across multiple system clock domains. |
| Output Format | LVDS - delivers low-noise, low-power differential signaling compatible with FPGA and ASIC clock inputs. |
| Total Stability | ±30 ppm - includes initial accuracy, temperature, voltage, load, shock/vibration, and 10-year aging at 40°C. |
| Supply Voltage | 3.3 V ±10% - powers internal LDO and output buffer; supports standard logic rail with noise filtering. |
| Phase Jitter (RMS) | 0.25 ps (1.875 MHz–20 MHz) - meets stringent jitter requirements for PCIe Gen3/Gen4 and 10G Ethernet SerDes. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and telecom infrastructure environments without derating. |
| Package | 5 × 7 mm, 6-pin SMD - industry-standard footprint with pin 1 = OE, pins 4/5 = CLK+/CLK−, pin 6 = VDD. |
Pinout & Package
511ECB-ABAG uses a 6-pin, 5 × 7 mm surface-mount ceramic package (CLCC). Pin 1 is Output Enable (OE), pin 2 is NC, pin 3 is GND, pins 4 and 5 are complementary LVDS outputs (CLK+, CLK−), and pin 6 is VDD.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | OE | Active-high output enable with internal pull-up; asserts high to enable LVDS output; low disables output to high-impedance state. |
| 2 | NC | No connect - must remain unconnected per design; no internal circuitry or function. |
| 3 | GND | Electrical and case ground reference for all internal circuits and output drivers. |
| 4 | CLK+ | Positive LVDS output terminal; delivers differential clock signal referenced to CLK− with 100 Ω line-line termination. |
| 5 | CLK− | Negative LVDS output terminal; forms true differential pair with CLK+ for common-mode noise rejection. |
| 6 | VDD | 3.3 V power supply input; feeds internal LDO regulator and output buffer; requires local 100 nF decoupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| DSPLL Any-Frequency Synthesis | Eliminates need for custom crystals - one device covers 100 kHz–250 MHz, reducing BOM count and inventory complexity. |
| On-Chip LDO Regulator | Provides >30 dB supply noise rejection, limiting added jitter to ≤3.5 ps even under 100 mVPP 1 MHz VDD noise. |
| Production-Tested Crystal ESR & DLD | Guarantees long-term reliability and frequency stability by screening resonator quality during manufacturing. |
| LVDS Output Compliance | Meets JEDEC JESD8-12 standards: 0.25–0.45 VPPSE, 48–52% duty cycle, 350–800 ps edge rates, 100 Ω differential termination. |
| Runt Suppression | Prevents partial clock pulses during power-on and OE transitions - ensures clean startup and glitch-free enable/disable. |
Applications
| PCI Express Clocking | Gigabit Ethernet PHY Timing |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar oscillator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si510ECB-ABAG | Same Si510/511 family, but 4-pin CMOS variant (OE on pin 1, single-ended CLK); max 212.5 MHz; no differential output. | Limited to single-ended loads; unsuitable for LVDS-requiring SerDes interfaces; lower jitter tolerance than LVDS path. | Select only if system uses CMOS clock inputs and frequency ≤212.5 MHz; not drop-in for 511ECB-ABAG due to pinout and interface mismatch. |
| AK2-156.250MHZ-EFE-T | Fixed-frequency 156.25 MHz LVDS XO; ±25 ppm temp stability only (no 10-year aging spec); no factory-programmable OE polarity. | Not programmable - requires exact frequency match; lacks DSPLL flexibility and total stability guarantee across lifetime. | Use when 156.25 MHz is fixed and cost sensitivity outweighs programmability and long-term stability assurance. |
Compared with Si510ECB-ABAG and AK2-156.250MHZ-EFE-T, 511ECB-ABAG uniquely combines factory-configurable LVDS output, ±30 ppm total stability including aging, and DSPLL-based any-frequency synthesis - making it optimal for scalable, long-lifecycle telecom and datacenter timing.

FAQ
What output format and supply voltage does the 511ECB-ABAG use?
The 511ECB-ABAG is configured as an LVDS oscillator operating from a 3.3 V supply. Its differential outputs (CLK+, CLK−) meet JEDEC LVDS specifications with 0.25–0.45 VPPSE swing and 100 Ω line-line termination. The part ships fully programmed - no external configuration is required.
Does the 511ECB-ABAG include integrated runt suppression?
Yes, the 511ECB-ABAG incorporates runt suppression on both power-on and OE transitions. This prevents partial clock pulses that could cause metastability or false triggering in downstream logic, ensuring clean, glitch-free clock activation critical for PCIe and Ethernet link initialization.
What is the total frequency stability specification for the 511ECB-ABAG?
The 511ECB-ABAG has a total stability of ±30 ppm, which explicitly includes initial calibration error, temperature variation (–40°C to +85°C), supply voltage change, load variation, mechanical stress (shock/vibration), and 10 years of aging at 40°C - verified per Skyworks Rev. 1.4 datasheet Table 2.
Can the 511ECB-ABAG be used in place of a fixed-frequency LVDS oscillator?
Yes - the 511ECB-ABAG is factory-programmed to a specific frequency (e.g., 156.25 MHz) and functions identically to a fixed-frequency LVDS XO in circuit. Its DSPLL core ensures identical electrical behavior, jitter performance, and pin compatibility with standard 5 × 7 mm LVDS oscillators.
What is the startup time and enable/disable timing for the 511ECB-ABAG?
The 511ECB-ABAG achieves full-frequency accuracy within ≤10 ms after VDD reaches minimum (2.97 V). For frequencies ≥10 MHz, output disable time (TD) is ≤5 µs and enable time (TE) is ≤20 µs - measured from OE transition to valid clock edges meeting duty cycle and amplitude specs.
