Product details
Overview
SI5338M-B05075-GMR from Skyworks Solutions is a quad-output, I²C-programmable clock generator with MultiSynth™ frequency synthesis, delivering four independent differential or single-ended clocks (0.16–710 MHz), 0.7 ps RMS typical phase jitter, PCIe Gen 1–4 and SRNS compliance, and operation from 1.8/2.5/3.3 V core supply in a 4×4 mm 24-QFN package. It replaces up to four crystal oscillators in high-speed serial interface timing applications.
For engineers reviewing the SI5338M-B05075-GMR datasheet, SI5338M-B05075-GMR pinout, SI5338M-B05075-GMR application, or SI5338M-B05075-GMR equivalent, key selection criteria include PCIe Gen 4 SRNS jitter performance (0.15–0.45 ps RMS), independent output voltage per driver (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V), programmable phase adjustment (<20 ps steps), spread-spectrum capability (0.5–5.0% at 33–63 kHz), and flexible reference input support (8–30 MHz crystal, 5–710 MHz differential).
Technical Context
The SI5338M-B05075-GMR implements a two-stage PLL architecture: a high-stability integer-N PLL synthesizes a VCO frequency (Fvco), followed by four independent MultiSynth™ fractional-N dividers enabling any-frequency generation on each of CLK0A/B through CLK3A/B. Each output stage supports format selection (LVPECL/LVDS/HCSL/CMOS/SSTL/HSTL) and independent VDDO supply (1.4–3.63 V).
It features dual reference inputs (IN1/IN2 differential, IN3/IN4 single-ended, IN5/IN6 differential), loss-of-lock and loss-of-signal alarms, I²C/SMBus configuration interface, and pin-controlled frequency/phase increment/decrement with glitchless 1 ppm step resolution and <20 ps phase step accuracy.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary clock generator providing four independent 100 MHz HCSL clocks (two for root complex, two for endpoint interfaces) with SRNS-compliant jitter. Use Value: Meets PCIe Gen 4 SRNS RMS jitter limit (≤0.32 ps) while eliminating four discrete oscillators and reducing board area by >60%. |
Use Scenario: 10 GbE/25 GbE Ethernet switch fabric with multi-port PHYs needing phase-aligned clocks across data paths and control planes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Quad-output timing source delivering 156.25 MHz LVDS (PHY), 125 MHz LVDS (MAC), 25 MHz CMOS (management), and 100 MHz HCSL (PCIe host interface). Use Value: Independent voltage per output (1.8 V for LVDS, 3.3 V for CMOS) avoids external level translation; <20 ps phase step enables fine-grained skew tuning. |
| Broadcast Video Timing | Processor & FPGA Clocking |
Use Scenario: SMPTE ST 2082/ST 2110 broadcast video router requiring ultra-low-jitter, phase-coherent clocks for 12G-SDI and IP media transport. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Master clock synthesizer generating 27 MHz (SDI), 74.25 MHz (HD-SDI), 148.5 MHz (3G-SDI), and 297 MHz (12G-SDI) from a single 25 MHz crystal reference. Use Value: 0.7 ps RMS jitter ensures compliance with SMPTE RP 184 jitter tolerance; MultiSynth™ eliminates crystal inventory complexity. |
Use Scenario: Heterogeneous compute platform with ARM SoC, Xilinx FPGA, and DDR4 memory subsystem requiring coordinated clock domains. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Central timing hub supplying 500 MHz LVDS (FPGA transceivers), 200 MHz LVDS (SoC AXI), 100 MHz HCSL (PCIe), and 133 MHz CMOS (DDR4 controller). Use Value: Independent output format and voltage per channel (e.g., 1.8 V LVDS for FPGA, 2.5 V HCSL for PCIe) simplifies power domain partitioning and reduces BOM count. |
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-D05089-GM | Higher integration: 8 outputs, integrated jitter cleaner, lower 0.35 ps RMS jitter; 5×5 mm 32-QFN package | Targeted at ultra-low-jitter 100G/400G optical modules and AI accelerator timing; requires more PCB area and higher cost | Select when sub-0.4 ps RMS jitter and >4 outputs are required; not drop-in compatible due to pin count and footprint change |
| ICS853S01AGI-01LFT | Fixed-frequency quad LVDS generator (100/125/156.25/200 MHz); no I²C programming; 0.9 ps RMS jitter; 4×4 mm 24-QFN | Designed for cost-sensitive, high-volume Ethernet PHY clocking where frequency flexibility is unnecessary | Choose for simplified design and lower unit cost if only standard Ethernet frequencies are needed; lacks reprogrammability and spread spectrum |
Compared with Si5332A-D05089-GM and ICS853S01AGI-01LFT, SI5338M-B05075-GMR uniquely balances field-programmability, PCIe Gen 4 compliance, and compact 24-QFN packaging - making it optimal for mid-range networking and embedded systems where flexibility, jitter margin, and board space are co-constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum output frequency supported by SI5338M-B05075-GMR?
The SI5338M-B05075-GMR supports up to 710 MHz on LVPECL/LVDS/CML outputs, 350 MHz on SSTL/HSTL, 250 MHz on HCSL, and 200 MHz on CMOS. However, only two unique frequencies above 350 MHz can be simultaneously generated (Fvco/4 and Fvco/6), as defined in the Si5338 functional description. All outputs maintain 0.7 ps RMS typical jitter within their respective format limits.
Does SI5338M-B05075-GMR support PCIe Gen 4 Separate Reference No Spread (SRNS) mode?
Yes, SI5338M-B05075-GMR is explicitly compliant with PCIe Gen 4 SRNS requirements, achieving 0.11–0.32 ps RMS jitter (10 kHz–50 MHz) when configured with PLL bandwidth of 2–4 MHz or 2–5 MHz and CDR = 10 MHz. This is verified per PCI-Express Base Specification 4.0 rev. 0.5 and measured using the Skyworks PCIe Clock Jitter Tool.
Can SI5338M-B05075-GMR generate different output voltages on each channel?
Yes, SI5338M-B05075-GMR provides independent VDDO0–VDDO3 pins, allowing each of its four output banks to be powered at 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V. This enables direct interfacing with mixed-voltage devices (e.g., 1.8 V FPGA transceivers, 3.3 V microcontrollers) without external level shifters, reducing BOM count and signal integrity risk.
How is SI5338M-B05075-GMR programmed, and is ClockBuilder Pro required?
SI5338M-B05075-GMR is programmed via its I²C/SMBus interface (SCL/SDA pins). While ClockBuilder Pro software from Skyworks simplifies configuration and validation, register-level programming is fully documented in the Si5338 register map. The device ships with factory-programmed default settings, and all configurations - including frequency, format, voltage, and spread spectrum - are stored in one-time-programmable (OTP) NVM.
What reference inputs does SI5338M-B05075-GMR accept?
SI5338M-B05075-GMR accepts six reference inputs: two differential pairs (IN1/IN2, IN5/IN6) supporting 5–710 MHz; two single-ended inputs (IN3, IN4) supporting 5–200 MHz CMOS; and an on-chip oscillator for 8–30 MHz crystals. Input flexibility allows use with legacy crystals, high-speed differential sources, or low-cost single-ended clocks - all while maintaining sub-ps jitter performance.
