Product details
Overview
SI5334C-B05946-GMR from Skyworks Solutions is a pin-controlled, quad-output any-frequency clock generator with four independently configurable differential clock outputs. It synthesizes frequencies from 0.16 MHz to 710 MHz using MultiSynth fractional-N synthesis, delivers 0.7 ps RMS typical phase jitter, supports LVPECL/LVDS/HCSL/CMOS/SSTL/HSTL output formats, and operates from 1.8/2.5/3.3 V core and per-output supply voltages - deployed in PCIe 3.0 timing, FPGA clocking, and broadcast video systems.
For engineers reviewing the SI5334C-B05946-GMR datasheet, SI5334C-B05946-GMR pinout, SI5334C-B05946-GMR application, or SI5334C-B05946-GMR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4× independent differential outputs, factory-programmed configuration, zero-ppm frequency accuracy, 24-pin 4×4 mm QFN package, and support for glitchless 1 ppm frequency increment/decrement on CLK0A/B.
Technical Context
The SI5334C-B05946-GMR integrates a fully on-chip fractional-N PLL (phase detector, charge pump, loop filter, VCO, and R/N dividers) plus four independent MultiSynth output synthesis stages. Each MultiSynth supports integer or fractional division to generate any output frequency up to 350 MHz (or select frequencies to 710 MHz), with programmable initial phase offset (±45 ns) and <20 ps phase step resolution.
Input flexibility includes crystal (8–30 MHz), single-ended CMOS (5–200 MHz), SSTL/HSTL (5–350 MHz), or differential (5–710 MHz) references. Output drivers are individually voltage-configurable (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V) and format-selectable, enabling mixed-signal system interfacing without level-shifting components.

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MultiSynth fractional-N synthesis | Enables any-frequency generation per output with zero ppm error and 0.7 ps RMS jitter - eliminates need for multiple fixed-frequency oscillators |
| Independent output voltage per driver | Each of four output pairs powered by dedicated VDDOx rail (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V) - directly interfaces LVDS, HCSL, and CMOS loads without level shifters |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar clock generator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si5332A-D05946-GM | Higher integration: 8 outputs, integrated EEPROM, I²C programmability; lower jitter (0.5 ps RMS); larger 32-QFN package | Required for designs needing field reconfiguration, more than 4 outputs, or tighter jitter budgets (e.g., 400G Ethernet) | Select when firmware-based frequency agility or >4 outputs are needed; not pin-compatible - requires PCB redesign |
| ICS8430I-01T | Fixed-frequency quad LVDS generator (100/125/156.25/200 MHz); no frequency synthesis; 1.2 ps RMS jitter; 3.3 V only; 24-TSSOP | Suitable only for static, known-frequency applications like basic Ethernet switches without margining or multi-standard support | Choose for cost-sensitive, non-reconfigurable designs where frequency flexibility is unnecessary and TSSOP packaging is acceptable |
Compared with Si5332A-D05946-GM, SI5334C-B05946-GMR offers simpler pin-control setup and smaller footprint but lacks I²C reprogramming; versus ICS8430I-01T, it provides full any-frequency synthesis and voltage flexibility at the cost of higher complexity and price.

FAQ
What is the maximum output frequency supported by SI5334C-B05946-GMR?
The SI5334C-B05946-GMR supports up to 710 MHz on LVPECL and LVDS outputs under specific conditions (e.g., Fvco/4 or Fvco/6 modes), while maintaining full functionality up to 350 MHz across all supported formats (LVPECL, LVDS, HCSL, CMOS, SSTL, HSTL). Frequencies above 350 MHz require careful validation per Table 4 and Section 2.4 of the datasheet.
Does SI5334C-B05946-GMR support spread spectrum clocking (SSC)?
Yes, SI5334C-B05946-GMR supports PCIe 2.0-compliant spread spectrum on any output clock operating at exactly 100 MHz with Rn divider set to 1. The modulation rate is 30–33 kHz with ±0.5% frequency deviation - effective for reducing EMI peaks in dense PCB layouts without violating PCIe timing margins.
Can SI5334C-B05946-GMR generate different output formats simultaneously?
Yes, SI5334C-B05946-GMR allows independent configuration of each of its four differential output pairs (CLK0A/B through CLK3A/B) for different signal formats - e.g., CLK0A/B as LVDS, CLK1A/B as HCSL, CLK2A/B as LVPECL, and CLK3A/B as CMOS - with corresponding VDDOx supplies set accordingly.
What is the function of the LOSLOL pin on SI5334C-B05946-GMR?
The LOSLOL pin on SI5334C-B05946-GMR is an open-drain alarm output that asserts low when either input clock loss (tLOS = 2.6–5 µs) or PLL loss-of-lock (tLOL = 5–10 ms) is detected. It requires an external pull-up resistor and is used for system-level fault monitoring and failover triggering in telecom and industrial applications.
Is SI5334C-B05946-GMR pin-compatible with other Si5334 variants?
Yes, all Si5334 variants - including SI5334C-B05946-GMR - share the identical 24-pin QFN package, pinout, and electrical interface. Differences reside solely in factory-programmed configuration (frequency plan, output formats, voltage settings), making them drop-in replacements when the programmed features match the target application.
