Product details
Overview
SI5338M-B10094-GMR from Skyworks Solutions is an I²C-programmable quad clock generator with four independently configurable differential or single-ended outputs, 0.7 ps RMS typical phase jitter, PCIe Gen 1–4 Common Clock and Gen 3 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-B10094-GMR datasheet, SI5338M-B10094-GMR pinout, SI5338M-B10094-GMR application, or SI5338M-B10094-GMR equivalent, key selection criteria include PCIe Gen 4 jitter compliance (0.15–0.45 ps RMS), independent output voltage per driver (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V), MultiSynth™ frequency synthesis resolution (1 ppb), spread-spectrum control (0.5–5.0% spread, 33–63 kHz modulation), and loss-of-lock/loss-of-signal alarm support.
Technical Context
The SI5338M-B10094-GMR implements a two-stage PLL architecture: Stage 1 uses a VCO with programmable N-divider for reference-to-VCO frequency translation; Stage 2 employs four independent MultiSynth™ fractional-N synthesizers, each with M- and P-dividers, enabling integer or fractional output synthesis from the VCO. This supports true zero-ppm accuracy on all four outputs.
Input flexibility includes external crystal (8–30 MHz), CMOS (5–200 MHz), SSTL/HSTL (5–350 MHz), or differential (5–710 MHz) references. Output drivers support LVPECL/LVDS/HCSL/CMOS/SSTL/HSTL formats across 0.16–710 MHz, with independent voltage selection (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V) and per-output phase/frequency increment/decrement (±45 ns / ±20 ps step).

FAQ
What is the maximum output frequency supported by the SI5338M-B10094-GMR?
The SI5338M-B10094-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 generated simultaneously (Fvco/4 and Fvco/6), as defined by the VCO operating range and MultiSynth™ architecture in the SI5338M-B10094-GMR datasheet.
Does the SI5338M-B10094-GMR support PCIe Gen 4 Separate Reference No Spread (SRNS) mode?
Yes, the SI5338M-B10094-GMR is compliant with PCIe Gen 3 SRNS and Gen 4 Common Clock specifications. Its measured RMS jitter is 0.11–0.32 ps in Gen 3 SRNS mode and 0.15–0.45 ps in Gen 4 Common Clock mode (PLL BW 2–5 MHz, CDR = 10 MHz), satisfying PCI Express Base Specification 4.0 rev. 0.5 requirements for the SI5338M-B10094-GMR.
How many independent supply voltages can be applied to the SI5338M-B10094-GMR output drivers?
The SI5338M-B10094-GMR supports four independent output buffer supply voltages (VDDO0–VDDO3), each configurable from 1.4 V to 3.63 V. This allows simultaneous LVDS (1.8 V), HCSL (1.5 V), CMOS (3.3 V), and SSTL (2.5 V) outputs - a capability confirmed in Table 6 and Section 3.4 of the SI5338M-B10094-GMR datasheet.
Can the SI5338M-B10094-GMR generate spread-spectrum clocking on individual outputs?
Yes, the SI5338M-B10094-GMR supports independent spread-spectrum clocking (SSC) on any output: frequency range 5–350 MHz, spread depth 0.5–5.0%, and modulation rate 33–63 kHz. This is implemented via dedicated registers per output and verified in Table 5 and Section 3.10.6 of the SI5338M-B10094-GMR datasheet.
What is the function of the INTR pin on the SI5338M-B10094-GMR?
The INTR pin on the SI5338M-B10094-GMR is an open-drain interrupt output that asserts low to indicate loss-of-lock (LOL) or loss-of-signal (LOS) events. Its behavior is configurable via register settings, and it supports debounced status reporting - as specified in Table 7 and Section 3.6 of the SI5338M-B10094-GMR datasheet.
