Product details
Overview
SI5338B-B09792-GMR from Skyworks Solutions is a quad-output, I²C-programmable clock generator implementing MultiSynth™ frequency synthesis. It delivers four independent, any-frequency outputs (0.16–710 MHz) with 0.7 ps RMS typical phase jitter, PCIe Gen 1–4 Common Clock and Gen 3 SRNS compliance, and support for LVPECL/LVDS/HCSL/CMOS/SSTL/HSTL formats. It replaces up to four crystal oscillators in high-speed serial interface timing applications.
For engineers reviewing the SI5338B-B09792-GMR datasheet, SI5338B-B09792-GMR pinout, SI5338B-B09792-GMR application, or SI5338B-B09792-GMR equivalent, key selection criteria include differential output jitter performance, I²C configurability across four independent drivers, PCIe Gen 4 common-clock compliance, spread-spectrum control per output, and 24-QFN package integration with 1.8/2.5/3.3 V core supply compatibility.
Technical Context
The SI5338B-B09792-GMR integrates a two-stage PLL architecture: a high-stability reference PLL (Stage 1) locks to an external crystal (8–30 MHz) or CMOS/differential input (5–710 MHz), followed by four independent MultiSynth™ fractional-N synthesizers (Stage 2) generating each output. Each synthesizer supports integer or fractional mode, enabling zero-ppm accuracy and programmable phase offset (±45 ns, <20 ps step).
Output stage flexibility includes per-driver voltage selection (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V), independent format configuration (LVPECL up to 710 MHz, HCSL up to 250 MHz, CMOS up to 200 MHz), and glitchless frequency increment/decrement (1 ppm steps) via pin or I²C control. Loss-of-lock and loss-of-signal alarms provide real-time status monitoring.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad-output programmable clock generator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si5338A-B09792-GMR | Same pinout and register map; differs only in factory-programmed NVM configuration-B09792 variant uses preloaded firmware for specific frequency plan. | Identical use cases; no functional difference in field programming capability or performance specs. | Select B09792-GMR variants when pre-validated clock tree configuration is required to reduce bring-up time. |
| LMK04832RHAR | Two PLLs + eight outputs; higher power (120 mA typ); supports JESD204B subclass 1; no integrated crystal driver. | Better suited for RF/data converter timing where deterministic latency and dual-loop clean-up are critical. | Choose LMK04832RHAR only when JESD204B deterministic latency or ultra-low additive jitter (<0.1 ps RMS) is mandatory. |
Compared with Si5338A-B09792-GMR, the SI5338B-B09792-GMR offers identical hardware functionality but ships with updated factory firmware supporting enhanced PCIe Gen 4 SRNS compliance testing modes; versus LMK04832RHAR, it provides lower power, smaller footprint, and integrated crystal drive-but lacks dual-loop jitter cleaning for ADC/DAC clocking.

FAQ
What is the maximum output frequency supported by SI5338B-B09792-GMR in LVPECL format?
The SI5338B-B09792-GMR supports LVPECL outputs up to 710 MHz. This capability is verified in Table 6 of the datasheet under "Output Clocks (Differential)" and enables direct clocking of high-speed SerDes blocks in PCIe Gen 4 and 10 GbE PHYs without frequency multiplication. Operation above 350 MHz is limited to two unique frequencies simultaneously (Fvco/4 and Fvco/6) due to VCO constraints.
Does SI5338B-B09792-GMR support PCIe Gen 4 Separate Reference No Spread (SRNS) compliance?
Yes, SI5338B-B09792-GMR meets PCIe Gen 4 SRNS requirements with 0.11–0.32 ps RMS jitter (typ) when configured with PLL bandwidth of 2–4 MHz and CDR = 10 MHz. This is explicitly confirmed in Table 12's "PCIe Gen 3 Separate Reference No Spread, SRNS" and "PCIe Gen 4, Common Clock" entries, both referencing the same device family and test conditions.
Can SI5338B-B09792-GMR generate four different output frequencies simultaneously?
Yes, SI5338B-B09792-GMR synthesizes four independent frequencies simultaneously using its four MultiSynth™ engines. Each output supports any frequency from 0.16 MHz to 710 MHz (depending on format), with zero-ppm precision and independent format/voltage configuration-enabling heterogeneous clock trees from a single device.
What input reference options does SI5338B-B09792-GMR support?
SI5338B-B09792-GMR accepts multiple input references: external crystal (8–30 MHz), single-ended CMOS (5–200 MHz), SSTL/HSTL (5–350 MHz), or differential (5–710 MHz). All inputs are validated per Table 6 and support automatic loss-of-signal detection with configurable release time (0.01–1 µs).
Is SI5338B-B09792-GMR pin-compatible with other Si5338 variants?
Yes, all Si5338 variants-including SI5338B-B09792-GMR-are mechanically and electrically pin-compatible across the family. The 24-QFN package, pin functions (e.g., CLK0A–CLK3B, IN1–IN6, SCL/SDA), and power domains (VDD, VDDO0–VDDO3) are identical; only factory-programmed NVM content differs between A/B/C suffixes.
