Product details
Overview
SI5338M-B10099-GM 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 across –40 to +85 °C in a 4 × 4 mm 24-QFN package. It replaces up to four crystal oscillators in FPGA, processor, and Ethernet switch timing systems.
For engineers reviewing the SI5338M-B10099-GM datasheet, SI5338M-B10099-GM pinout, SI5338M-B10099-GM application, or SI5338M-B10099-GM equivalent, key selection criteria include its MultiSynth™-based any-frequency synthesis (0.16–710 MHz per output), independent output voltage control (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V), spread-spectrum capability (0.5–5.0% at 33–63 kHz), and I²C/SMBus programmability with ClockBuilder Pro support.
Technical Context
The SI5338M-B10099-GM integrates a high-stability PLL-based synthesis stage followed by four independent MultiSynth™ fractional-N dividers, enabling true zero-ppm frequency accuracy on all outputs. Its architecture supports both free-running clock generation and synchronous frequency translation modes using up to six input references (differential, CMOS, SSTL/HSTL).
Each output driver features independent format selection (LVPECL/LVDS/HCSL/CMOS/SSTL/HSTL), programmable initial phase offset (±45 ns), and glitchless frequency increment/decrement (1 ppm steps). The device implements loss-of-lock and loss-of-signal alarms, external feedback for zero-delay mode, and configurable spread spectrum on any output.

FAQ
What is the maximum output frequency supported by SI5338M-B10099-GM in LVPECL mode?
The SI5338M-B10099-GM supports up to 710 MHz in LVPECL mode per output channel, as specified in Table 6 of the Skyworks Rev. 1.6 datasheet. This capability enables direct clocking of high-speed SerDes lanes in PCIe Gen 4 and 10G/25G Ethernet applications without external frequency multiplication.
Does SI5338M-B10099-GM support PCIe Gen 4 Separate Reference No Spread (SRNS) compliance?
Yes, SI5338M-B10099-GM meets PCIe Gen 4 SRNS requirements with ≤0.32 ps RMS jitter (typical) when configured with PLL bandwidth of 2–4 MHz and CDR = 10 MHz, as verified in Table 12 of the official datasheet. This makes it suitable for root complex and endpoint timing in Gen 4 systems.
Can SI5338M-B10099-GM generate four different frequencies simultaneously?
Yes, SI5338M-B10099-GM uses four independent MultiSynth™ engines to synthesize four distinct output frequencies simultaneously-from 0.16 MHz to 710 MHz-with zero ppm error and independent format/voltage/phase control, as confirmed in the Functional Block Diagram and Section 3.4 of the datasheet.
What package type and dimensions does SI5338M-B10099-GM use?
SI5338M-B10099-GM uses a 24-pin QFN package measuring 4 × 4 mm with 0.5 mm pitch and an exposed thermal pad, per Package Outline document section 9 in the Skyworks Rev. 1.6 datasheet. This compact footprint supports high-density PCB layouts in space-constrained networking and compute modules.
Is ClockBuilder Pro software required to configure SI5338M-B10099-GM?
No, ClockBuilder Pro is optional but strongly recommended for SI5338M-B10099-GM configuration-it provides GUI-based frequency planning, jitter simulation, register mapping, and .c file generation. Direct I²C register writes are possible, but ClockBuilder Pro ensures correct initialization sequences and avoids configuration errors that could impact jitter or lock behavior.
