Product details
Overview
SI5338N-B05519-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 and SRNS compliance, and MultiSynth™ frequency synthesis supporting 0.16–710 MHz output ranges across LVPECL/LVDS/HCSL/CMOS/SSTL/HSTL formats.
For engineers reviewing the SI5338N-B05519-GMR datasheet, SI5338N-B05519-GMR pinout, SI5338N-B05519-GMR application, or SI5338N-B05519-GMR equivalent, key selection criteria include PCIe Gen 4 common-clock jitter performance (0.15–0.45 ps RMS), independent per-output voltage control (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V), spread-spectrum modulation configurability (0.5–5.0% spread, 33–63 kHz rate), and 24-QFN package compatibility with space-constrained FPGA/ASIC timing designs.
Technical Context
The SI5338N-B05519-GMR implements a two-stage PLL architecture: a high-stability reference stage followed by four independent MultiSynth™ fractional-N synthesizers, each driving one output pair (CLKxA/CLKxB). It supports external crystal (8–30 MHz), CMOS (5–200 MHz), SSTL/HSTL (5–350 MHz), or differential (5–710 MHz) inputs.
Each output driver features independent format selection, voltage rail assignment (VDDO0–VDDO3), programmable phase offset (±45 ns, <20 ps step), and glitchless frequency increment/decrement (1 ppm steps). Loss-of-lock and loss-of-signal alarms are provided via the INTR pin.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad clock generator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si5332A-D05519-GM | Higher integration: includes integrated crystal, smaller 3.2 × 3.2 mm QFN, lower power (32 mA typ), but fixed 4-output configuration without pin-selectable variants | Targeted at space-constrained edge compute modules where board area and crystal footprint reduction are critical | Select Si5332A-D05519-GM when eliminating external crystal and reducing PCB area outweigh flexibility in pin configuration and legacy design reuse |
| ICS8430I-01T | Lower jitter (0.45 ps RMS), but only two outputs, no spread spectrum, limited input range (up to 250 MHz), and no I²C programmability | Suitable for dual-clock applications requiring highest jitter performance without frequency agility or multi-protocol support | Select ICS8430I-01T only for fixed-frequency, dual-output systems where PCIe Gen 4 jitter margin is paramount and programmability is unnecessary |
Compared with Si5332A-D05519-GM and ICS8430I-01T, SI5338N-B05519-GMR uniquely balances full I²C programmability, four independent outputs with per-rail voltage control, PCIe Gen 4 compliance, and broad input/output frequency coverage - making it optimal for flexible, multi-protocol timing in programmable logic and switching platforms.

FAQ
What is the maximum output frequency supported by SI5338N-B05519-GMR in LVPECL mode?
The SI5338N-B05519-GMR supports up to 710 MHz in LVPECL mode, as confirmed in Table 6 of the datasheet under "Output Clocks (Differential)" for LVPECL/LVDS formats. This capability enables direct clocking of high-speed SerDes lanes in PCIe Gen 4 and 10G/25G Ethernet applications without frequency multiplication.
Does SI5338N-B05519-GMR support PCIe Gen 4 Separate Reference No Spread (SRNS) mode?
Yes, SI5338N-B05519-GMR is explicitly compliant with PCIe Gen 4 SRNS mode, achieving 0.11–0.32 ps RMS jitter (Table 12) when configured with a 2–5 MHz PLL bandwidth and 10 MHz CDR. This is validated per PCI-Express Base Specification 4.0 rev. 0.5 and measured using the Skyworks PCIe Clock Jitter Tool.
Can SI5338N-B05519-GMR generate different output voltages simultaneously on its four channels?
Yes, SI5338N-B05519-GMR supports independent output supply rails (VDDO0–VDDO3), allowing simultaneous operation at 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V across its four output drivers. Each rail powers one pair of differential outputs (CLKxA/CLKxB), enabling direct interfacing with mixed-voltage ASICs and FPGAs without level shifters.
What is the minimum input frequency supported for crystal-based operation of SI5338N-B05519-GMR?
The SI5338N-B05519-GMR supports crystal inputs from 8 MHz to 30 MHz, as specified in Tables 8–11 of the datasheet. The minimum crystal frequency is 8 MHz; operation below this requires external CMOS or differential clock sources (minimum 5 MHz).
How is spread-spectrum modulation configured on SI5338N-B05519-GMR?
Spread-spectrum modulation on SI5338N-B05519-GMR is configured per output via I²C registers, supporting 0.5–5.0% down-spread and 33–63 kHz modulation rates (Table 5). Configuration is performed using ClockBuilder Pro software or direct register writes; default settings are ~0.5% down-spread at ~31.5 kHz.
