Product details
Overview
SI5338C-B05692-GMR from Skyworks Solutions is a quad-output, I²C-programmable clock generator with MultiSynth™ frequency synthesis. It delivers four independent, any-frequency differential or single-ended clocks (up to 710 MHz LVPECL/LVDS), 0.7 ps RMS typical phase jitter, PCIe Gen 1–4 and SRNS compliance, and operates from 1.8/2.5/3.3 V core supply in a 4 × 4 mm 24-QFN package for FPGA, processor, and high-speed serial interface timing.
For engineers reviewing the SI5338C-B05692-GMR datasheet, SI5338C-B05692-GMR pinout, SI5338C-B05692-GMR application, or SI5338C-B05692-GMR equivalent, key selection criteria include PCIe Gen 4 SRNS jitter compliance (0.15 ps RMS), independent output voltage per driver (1.5–3.3 V), programmable phase/frequency step resolution (20 ps / 1 ppm), and flexible input support (crystal, CMOS, SSTL, differential up to 710 MHz).
Technical Context
The SI5338C-B05692-GMR implements a two-stage PLL architecture: a high-stability reference stage (with crystal or external clock input) followed by four independent MultiSynth™ fractional-N synthesis blocks. Each output path includes configurable divider chains (R/M/N/P), selectable output format drivers, and per-channel voltage control (VDDO0–VDDO3).
It supports both free-running synthesis and synchronous frequency translation modes, with external feedback enabling zero-delay operation. Loss-of-lock and loss-of-signal monitoring, plus glitchless frequency/phase adjustment via dedicated pins or I²C, enable dynamic reconfiguration in live systems without clock interruption.

Applications
| PCIe Gen 4 Switch Timing | Ethernet Switch Clocking |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Providing synchronized, low-jitter reference clocks to PCIe Gen 4 switches and endpoint devices in data center top-of-rack systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Quad-output clock generator delivering four independent 100 MHz HCSL clocks compliant with PCIe Gen 4 SRNS jitter spec (0.11–0.32 ps RMS). Use Value: Eliminates need for four discrete oscillators while maintaining sub-0.35 ps RMS jitter margin required for Gen 4 link training and stability. | Use Scenario: Generating precise 125 MHz, 156.25 MHz, and 312.5 MHz clocks for 1/10 GbE PHYs and switch fabric interfaces. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Any-frequency synthesizer producing Ethernet-standard rates with identical jitter performance across all outputs. Use Value: Enables single-device clock tree for multi-rate Ethernet platforms, reducing BOM count and PCB area vs. discrete XO + divider solutions. |
| FPGA Processor Clocking | Broadcast Video Timing |
Use Scenario: Supplying core, I/O, transceiver, and DDR clock domains to Xilinx Versal or Intel Agilex FPGAs in compute-accelerated edge servers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Configurable quad clock source with independent voltage per output (1.8 V for I/O, 1.2 V-equivalent for core via VDDO scaling). Use Value: Supports mixed-voltage FPGA clocking without level shifters; phase alignment ensures setup/hold timing closure across clock domains. | Use Scenario: Delivering SMPTE ST 2082 (12G-SDI) 594 MHz, ST 2081 (6G-SDI) 297 MHz, and auxiliary sync clocks in broadcast camera control units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-frequency LVPECL clock generator with <10 ps cycle-cycle jitter and programmable phase for genlock alignment. Use Value: Meets SMPTE jitter limits (<0.2 UI) at 12G-SDI rates using direct synthesis - avoids jitter accumulation from PLL cascading. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si5332A-D06889-GM | Higher integration: integrated crystal, lower jitter (0.35 ps RMS), supports up to 10 outputs, but larger 5 × 5 mm 32-QFN package | Preferred for space-constrained designs requiring ultra-low jitter and crystal integration; not drop-in compatible due to pin count and footprint change | Select when crystal integration and sub-0.4 ps RMS jitter are mandatory, and PCB layout allows 32-pin QFN |
| ICS854S01IAGLF | Fixed-frequency, non-programmable quad LVDS clock fanout buffer; no synthesis, no I²C, 0.4 ps RMS jitter, 16-pin TSSOP | Only suitable for static clock distribution where frequencies are known and unchanging; lacks frequency translation or phase control | Choose only for cost-sensitive, fixed-rate applications where programmability is unnecessary and jitter budget is tighter than 0.7 ps |
Compared with Si5332A-D06889-GM and ICS854S01IAGLF, SI5338C-B05692-GMR uniquely balances field-programmability, PCIe Gen 4 compliance, and compact 24-QFN packaging - making it optimal for mid-volume, multi-protocol systems requiring design flexibility without crystal integration overhead.

FAQ
What is the maximum output frequency supported by SI5338C-B05692-GMR in LVPECL mode?
The SI5338C-B05692-GMR supports up to 710 MHz in LVPECL output mode, as specified in Table 6 of the Skyworks datasheet. This applies when using differential outputs with appropriate termination and supply voltage (VDDO ≥ 2.5 V). Frequencies above 350 MHz require use of Fvco/4 or Fvco/6 synthesis paths, limiting simultaneous high-frequency outputs to two unique values.
Does SI5338C-B05692-GMR support PCIe Gen 4 Separate Reference No Spread (SRNS) compliance?
Yes, SI5338C-B05692-GMR is explicitly SRNS-compliant for PCIe Gen 4, achieving 0.11–0.32 ps RMS jitter under defined test conditions (PLL BW 2–4 MHz, CDR = 10 MHz). This is verified in Table 12 of the official Skyworks datasheet Rev. 1.6 and confirmed via Skyworks' PCIe Clock Jitter Tool validation.
Can SI5338C-B05692-GMR generate different output voltages on each channel?
Yes, SI5338C-B05692-GMR provides independent VDDO supplies (VDDO0–VDDO3) for each output pair, supporting 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V per channel. This enables mixed-voltage clocking - for example, 1.8 V LVDS for FPGA I/O banks and 2.5 V HCSL for PCIe slots - without external level shifters.
What input reference types does SI5338C-B05692-GMR accept?
SI5338C-B05692-GMR accepts five input reference types: (1) 8–30 MHz fundamental-mode crystal (differential), (2) CMOS (5–200 MHz), (3) SSTL/HSTL (5–350 MHz), and (4) differential (LVDS/LVPECL/CML, 5–710 MHz). All inputs support automatic loss-of-signal detection with configurable response times.
Is SI5338C-B05692-GMR pin-compatible with other Si5338 variants like SI5338A or SI5338B?
Yes, all Si5338 variants - including SI5338C-B05692-GMR - share identical 24-QFN pinout, electrical characteristics, and register map. The 'A', 'B', 'C' suffix denotes factory-programmed configuration (e.g., default output frequencies, I²C address, power-up behavior), not hardware differences. Hardware replacement is fully pin- and footprint-compatible.
