Product details
Overview
552CG000230DG from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-frequency voltage-controlled crystal oscillator (VCXO) with factory-programmed frequencies of 125 MHz and 156.25 MHz, 3.3 V CMOS output, ±50 ppm temperature stability, and 90 ppm/V tuning slope. It delivers low-jitter clock generation for telecom timing applications requiring dual-rate synchronization and stable frequency switching via the FS pin. The device uses DSPLL® synthesis with an internal fixed crystal for high reliability.
For engineers reviewing the 552CG000230DG datasheet, 552CG000230DG pinout, 552CG000230DG application, or 552CG000230DG equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning for key specs, validated pin functions, confirmed alternative options, and supply support details specific to this exact configuration.
Technical Context
The 552CG000230DG implements third-generation DSPLL® architecture to synthesize two precise output frequencies (125 MHz and 156.25 MHz) from a single internal fixed-frequency crystal, eliminating need for multiple crystals. Its CMOS output supports 15 pF load with 1 ns rise/fall time and 45–55% duty cycle symmetry.
Frequency selection is controlled by the FS pin, which toggles between the two preprogrammed frequencies with ≤10 ms settling time. The VC input accepts 0–VDD control voltage with 90 ppm/V tuning slope, enabling ±80 ppm absolute pull range at 3.3 V while maintaining ±50 ppm temperature stability over –40 to +85 °C.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-frequency VCXO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si552CG000125DGR | Same package, 3.3 V CMOS, but programmed for 100 MHz / 125 MHz pair; lower base frequencies | Optimized for legacy Ethernet (100BASE-TX) and lower-speed PHYs; lacks 156.25 MHz for 10GbE | Select when system requires 100 MHz reference alongside 125 MHz, not 156.25 MHz |

FAQ
What are the exact factory-programmed frequencies for 552CG000230DG?
The 552CG000230DG is configured with two precise output frequencies: 125.000000 MHz (selected when FS = 0) and 156.250000 MHz (selected when FS = 1). These values are permanently programmed during manufacturing and cannot be altered in the field. Both frequencies are traceable to NIST standards and meet the ±50 ppm temperature stability specification across –40 to +85 °C.
Does 552CG000230DG support differential output formats like LVDS or LVPECL?
No, 552CG000230DG is configured exclusively for CMOS output per its part number suffix 'C'. Pin 5 (CLK−) is designated NC (no-connect) in this variant. Attempting to use differential termination or drive differential receivers will result in undefined behavior or signal integrity degradation. For LVDS or LVPECL variants, refer to part numbers ending in 'B' or 'A', respectively.
What is the absolute pull range (APR) of 552CG000230DG at 3.3 V supply?
With a tuning slope (KV) of 90 ppm/V and 3.3 V supply, the 552CG000230DG achieves a nominal pull range of ±148.5 ppm (0.5 × 3.3 V × 90 ppm/V). After subtracting ±50 ppm temperature stability and ±10 ppm 15-year aging, the guaranteed minimum APR is ±80 ppm. This value is confirmed in Table 3 of the official Skyworks datasheet revision D.
How does the FS pin behave electrically on 552CG000230DG?
The FS pin on 552CG000230DG is a CMOS-compatible digital input with an internal 17 kΩ pull-up resistor to VDD. A logic low (≤0.5 V) selects the first frequency (125 MHz), and a logic high (≥0.75 × VDD = ≥2.475 V) selects the second (156.25 MHz). Settling time after FS transition is ≤10 ms, and no external pull-up is required unless driving from an open-drain source.
Is 552CG000230DG compliant with RoHS and lead-free assembly requirements?
Yes, 552CG000230DG is fully RoHS-compliant and Pb-free, as indicated by the '+' mark in its top-side laser marking per Section 6.2 of the datasheet. It meets JEDEC J-STD-020C MSL 1 rating and supports Pb-free reflow profiles with peak temperature of 260 °C for 20–40 seconds. The package uses matte tin terminations compatible with standard solder paste formulations.
