Product details
Overview
SI5334K-B04796-GM from Skyworks Solutions is a pin-controlled, any-frequency quad clock generator with four independently configurable differential outputs, 0.7 ps RMS typical phase jitter, 0 ppm frequency accuracy, and support for LVPECL/LVDS/HCSL/CMOS/SSTL/HSTL output formats up to 710 MHz - deployed in Ethernet switch/router and PCI Express 3.0 timing systems.
For engineers reviewing the SI5334K-B04796-GM datasheet, SI5334K-B04796-GM pinout, SI5334K-B04796-GM application, or SI5334K-B04796-GM equivalent, key selection considerations include its 24-pin QFN package, factory-programmed configuration, 1.8/2.5/3.3 V core supply compatibility, independent output voltage per driver (1.5–3.3 V), and PCIe 2.0-compliant spread spectrum on 100 MHz outputs.
Technical Context
The SI5334K-B04796-GM integrates a fractional-N PLL with patented MultiSynth synthesis stages - one per output - enabling independent non-integer frequency generation with zero ppm error. Each output supports programmable initial phase offset (±45 ns) and 20 ps step phase adjustment.
It accepts multiple reference inputs: 8–30 MHz crystal, 5–200 MHz CMOS, 5–350 MHz SSTL/HSTL, or 5–710 MHz differential clock. The device operates across –40 to +85 °C and supports optional zero-delay mode via external feedback on FDBK/FDBKB pins.
Key Specifications

| LOSLOL | Loss-of-signal/loss-of-lock alarm | Open-drain output; asserts low within 5 µs on input loss or PLL unlock |
| OEB | Output enable/disable | Active-low control; disables all outputs simultaneously without reconfiguration |
| RSVD_GND | Reserved ground | Internally connected to substrate; must be tied to PCB ground plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MultiSynth frequency synthesis | Four independent fractional-N synthesis paths deliver true 0 ppm frequency accuracy on all outputs |
| Glitchless frequency increment/decrement | 1 ppm steps on CLK0A/B only; enables real-time frequency margining during test or runtime adaptation |
| Programmable phase offset | ±45 ns range with <20 ps resolution per output - critical for skew-sensitive SerDes alignment |
| Zero-delay mode | External feedback via FDBK/FDBKB pins eliminates static phase offset between reference and selected output |
| Pin-controlled operation | No I²C bus required; configuration set at power-up from OTP memory - simplifies firmware and reduces BOM |

Use Value: Independent output format and voltage per channel eliminate level-shifting components; 24-QFN footprint saves board area versus discrete solutions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad clock generator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si5332A-D06889-GM | Higher integration: 8 outputs, integrated EEPROM, I²C programmability; 0.5 ps RMS jitter; supports JESD204B deterministic latency | Required for JESD204B-compliant data converters or systems needing dynamic reconfiguration | Select when field programmability, higher channel count, or sub-0.5 ps jitter is mandatory - not pin-compatible |
| ICS843002AGI-01LFT | Fixed-frequency quad LVDS generator (100/125/156.25 MHz); no frequency synthesis; 1.2 ps RMS jitter; 32-pin QFN | Suitable only for static, standard-frequency applications like Gigabit Ethernet PHY clocks | Choose for cost-sensitive, non-synthesizing use cases where flexibility is unnecessary and lower jitter tolerance exists |
Compared with Si5332A-D06889-GM, SI5334K-B04796-GM offers simpler pin-control deployment and lower system-level firmware overhead; compared with ICS843002AGI-01LFT, it delivers full any-frequency synthesis and superior jitter performance at the cost of greater configuration complexity.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the SI5334K-B04796-GM in a timing architecture?
The SI5334K-B04796-GM serves as a pin-controlled, any-frequency quad clock generator that synthesizes four independent, low-jitter differential clock outputs - each configurable from 0.16 MHz up to 710 MHz - using Skyworks' MultiSynth technology. It replaces multiple fixed-frequency oscillators and dividers, reducing bill-of-materials and layout complexity while ensuring 0 ppm frequency accuracy and 0.7 ps RMS phase jitter for demanding applications like PCIe 3.0 and 10 GbE.
Does the SI5334K-B04796-GM require an I²C interface for configuration?
No, the SI5334K-B04796-GM does not require an I²C interface. Its configuration is factory-programmed into one-time-programmable (OTP) memory and loaded automatically at power-up. All functional settings - including output frequencies, formats, voltages, and spread spectrum - are controlled via hardware pin strapping (e.g., OEB, LOSLOL, and reference input selection), eliminating firmware dependencies and simplifying system integration.
What reference inputs does the SI5334K-B04796-GM support?
The SI5334K-B04796-GM supports multiple reference sources: an 8–30 MHz fundamental-mode crystal connected to IN1/IN2, or external clock signals including 5–200 MHz CMOS (IN3/IN4), 5–350 MHz SSTL/HSTL, and 5–710 MHz differential (IN1/IN2 or IN5/IN6). Input flexibility allows seamless integration across legacy and high-speed designs without external signal conditioning.
Can the SI5334K-B04796-GM generate spread spectrum clocking for EMI reduction?
Yes, the SI5334K-B04796-GM supports PCIe 2.0-compliant spread spectrum clocking (SSC) on any output clock operating at exactly 100 MHz - provided the Rn divider is set to 1. SSC provides –0.5% frequency deviation at 30–33 kHz modulation rate, reducing electromagnetic interference without compromising timing integrity in host systems compliant with PCIe specifications.
How is output voltage configured on the SI5334K-B04796-GM?
Each of the four differential output pairs (CLK0 through CLK3) has its own dedicated output buffer supply pin (VDDO0–VDDO3), allowing independent selection of 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V per channel. This enables direct interfacing with mixed-voltage ASICs, FPGAs, and PHYs - for example, driving a 1.8 V FPGA transceiver bank and a 3.3 V legacy controller simultaneously - without external level shifters or voltage translators.
