Product details
Overview
512BCA000594AAG from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-frequency crystal oscillator (XO) with factory-programmed frequencies of 100 MHz and 125 MHz, operating at 3.3 V supply, CMOS output format, ±30 ppm total stability (Grade C), and housed in a 3.2 × 5.0 mm 6-pin package. It serves as a low-jitter, dual-clock source for FPGA/ASIC timing and high-speed serial interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the 512BCA000594AAG datasheet, 512BCA000594AAG pinout, 512BCA000594AAG application, or 512BCA000594AAG equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-frequency switching via FS pin, OE polarity configuration, CMOS drive capability up to 212.5 MHz, and compatibility with SONET/SDH, PCIe, and Gigabit Ethernet clocking requirements.
Technical Context
The 512BCA000594AAG implements Skyworks' DSPLL® synthesis architecture using a fixed-crystal reference and an on-chip PLL to generate two precise, user-selectable output frequencies (100 MHz and 125 MHz). Frequency selection is controlled by the logic level on the FS pin (pin 1), with no external components required.
It integrates an on-chip LDO regulator for supply noise rejection, supports active-high OE (pin 2), and features runt suppression on both OE and power-on transitions. The device operates across –40 °C to +85 °C and is factory-configured - no field programming is needed.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Nominal Frequencies | 100 MHz (f₀, selected when FS = 0) and 125 MHz (f₁, selected when FS = 1) |
| Output Format | CMOS single-ended output with 0.85×VDD high / 0.15×VDD low logic levels |
| Supply Voltage | 3.3 V ±10% - enables direct interface with 3.3 V I/O domains without level shifting |
| Total Stability | ±30 ppm - includes initial accuracy, temperature, voltage, load, shock/vibration, and 10-year aging |
| Phase Jitter (RMS) | 0.25–0.35 ps (1.875–20 MHz integration) - meets stringent jitter budgets for PCIe Gen3/Gen4 and 10G Ethernet |
| Startup Time | ≤10 ms - ensures rapid system initialization after power-up |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +85 °C - qualified for industrial and telecom infrastructure environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: 3.2 × 5.0 mm, 6-pin surface-mount ceramic package (RoHS-compliant, Pb-free).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | FS (Frequency Select) | Digital control input: logic 0 selects 100 MHz; logic 1 selects 125 MHz |
| 2 | OE (Output Enable) | Active-high enable; internal pull-up; tristates output when low |
| 3 | GND | Electrical and case ground reference for all signals and power |
| 4 | CLK | CMOS clock output - single-ended, rail-to-rail swing, 15 pF load rated |
| 5 | NC | No connect - must remain unconnected per design; no internal function |
| 6 | VDD | 3.3 V power supply input - filtered internally by on-chip LDO for noise immunity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-frequency programmability | Two factory-set frequencies (100/125 MHz) selectable in real time via FS pin - eliminates need for multiple XOs or external muxing |
| On-chip LDO regulation | Integrated low-dropout regulator suppresses supply noise - reduces need for external bulk/bypass capacitors and improves jitter in noisy power domains |
| Runt suppression | Hardware-level glitch filtering on OE and power-on - prevents false clock edges during enable transitions or brown-out recovery |
| Wide supply tolerance | 3.3 V ±10% operation - accommodates typical board-level rail variation without external regulation |
| Industry-standard footprint | 3.2 × 5.0 mm 6-pin package - drop-in compatible with existing XO layouts and automated assembly processes |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-frequency oscillator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si512BCA000104BAGR | Same Si512 family, 3.2 × 5.0 mm, 3.3 V CMOS, but configured for 155.52 MHz / 156.25 MHz frequencies | Targeted at SONET/SDH and OTN line cards requiring ITU-T G.823/G.8262 compliant clocks | Select when exact 155.52/156.25 MHz pair is required; identical pinout and electrical behavior otherwise |
| Si513BCA000594AAG | Same frequencies (100/125 MHz) and specs, but OE on pin 1 instead of pin 2 - requires PCB layout revision | Used where OE signal routing constraints favor pin-1 placement; same functional performance | Choose only if redesigning PCB to accommodate OE-on-pin-1 topology; not a drop-in replacement |
Compared with 512BCA000594AAG, Si512BCA000104BAGR offers different frequency pairs for telecom sync, while Si513BCA000594AAG maintains identical timing specs but shifts OE to pin 1 - requiring layout change. Neither is pin-compatible, but both share identical jitter, stability, and supply characteristics.

FAQ
What are the two factory-programmed output frequencies of the 512BCA000594AAG?
The 512BCA000594AAG is configured with two precise frequencies: 100 MHz (selected when FS = 0) and 125 MHz (selected when FS = 1). These values are permanently programmed at Skyworks' factory and cannot be altered in the field. Both frequencies meet ±30 ppm total stability over temperature, voltage, and 10-year aging - verified per Table 2 in the official Si512/513 datasheet Rev. 1.2.
Is the 512BCA000594AAG pin-compatible with other Si512 variants?
Yes - the 512BCA000594AAG uses the standard Si512 CMOS pinout: FS on pin 1, OE on pin 2, GND on pin 3, CLK on pin 4, NC on pin 5, and VDD on pin 6. This matches all Si512-series CMOS devices in the 3.2 × 5.0 mm package, including Si512BCA000104BAGR. Pin compatibility enables shared PCB footprints and test fixtures across frequency variants.
Does the 512BCA000594AAG support differential output formats like LVDS or LVPECL?
No - the 512BCA000594AAG is specifically configured for CMOS output (single-ended), as indicated by the "C" in its part number prefix (512BCA…). Differential outputs (LVDS/LVPECL/HCSL) require different part numbers (e.g., "B" for LVDS, "A" for LVPECL). The internal circuitry, pin assignments (CLK only, no CLK+/CLK−), and drive strength are optimized exclusively for CMOS loads.
What is the maximum output frequency supported by the 512BCA000594AAG in CMOS mode?
The 512BCA000594AAG supports CMOS output frequencies up to 212.5 MHz, as specified in Table 2 of the Si512/513 datasheet. Its configured frequencies - 100 MHz and 125 MHz - operate well within this limit and deliver optimal jitter performance (0.25–0.35 ps RMS phase jitter) under standard 15 pF loading conditions.
How does the on-chip LDO in the 512BCA000594AAG improve system-level jitter performance?
The integrated LDO in the 512BCA000594AAG filters supply noise before it reaches the DSPLL® core, reducing sensitivity to rail disturbances. As quantified in Table 4, additive jitter due to 100 kHz VDD noise is only 3.5 ps RMS - significantly lower than discrete XO alternatives without internal regulation. This enables cleaner clock generation in electrically noisy environments such as switch-mode power supply proximity or dense digital boards.
