Product details
Overview
SI5338P-B04154-GMR from Skyworks Solutions is a quad-output, I²C-programmable clock generator implementing MultiSynth™ frequency synthesis with 0 ppm precision per output, 0.7 ps RMS typical phase jitter, PCIe Gen 1–4 Common Clock and Gen 3 SRNS compliance, and support for LVPECL/LVDS/HCSL/CMOS/SSTL/HSTL output formats across 0.16–710 MHz. It replaces up to four crystal oscillators in FPGA, processor, and Ethernet switch timing systems.
For engineers reviewing the SI5338P-B04154-GMR datasheet, SI5338P-B04154-GMR pinout, SI5338P-B04154-GMR application, or SI5338P-B04154-GMR equivalent, key selection criteria include differential output jitter performance at 125 MHz (0.7 ps RMS), independent per-output voltage configuration (1.5/1.8/2.5/3.3 V), 24-pin QFN package footprint, and I²C/SMBus programmability with ClockBuilder Pro software support.
Technical Context
The SI5338P-B04154-GMR integrates a high-stability PLL-based synthesis stage followed by four independent MultiSynth™ fractional-N dividers, enabling simultaneous generation of four unrelated frequencies with integer or fractional mode operation. Each output driver supports format- and voltage-selectable termination with configurable slew rate and drive strength.
It accepts six input references - including 8–30 MHz crystals, 5–200 MHz CMOS, 5–350 MHz SSTL/HSTL, and 5–710 MHz differential signals - and provides loss-of-lock and loss-of-signal alarms, external feedback for zero-delay mode, and independent ±45 ns programmable phase offset per output with <20 ps step resolution.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad-output clock generator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si5332A-D06154-GM | Higher integration: includes integrated crystal, lower jitter (0.35 ps RMS), but limited to three outputs and no spread spectrum | Best suited for space-constrained, ultra-low-jitter applications where only three clocks are needed and EMI reduction is not required | Select when board area and jitter are prioritized over output count and SSC flexibility |

FAQ
What is the maximum output frequency supported by SI5338P-B04154-GMR in LVPECL mode?
The SI5338P-B04154-GMR supports up to 710 MHz in LVPECL mode per output, 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 SI5338P-B04154-GMR require an external crystal, or can it use other reference sources?
SI5338P-B04154-GMR supports multiple reference inputs: an 8–30 MHz crystal (on IN1/IN2), a 5–200 MHz CMOS signal (on IN3/IN4), or differential clocks up to 710 MHz (on IN1/IN2, IN5/IN6). No external crystal is mandatory - the device operates with any of these sources, offering design flexibility in reference architecture.
How is SI5338P-B04154-GMR programmed, and what tools are required?
SI5338P-B04154-GMR is programmed via its I²C/SMBus interface using Skyworks' ClockBuilder Pro software. The tool generates configuration files, validates timing constraints, and supports in-system programming - eliminating need for custom firmware. SI5338P-B04154-GMR also supports pin-controlled frequency increment/decrement for runtime tuning without host intervention.
What jitter performance does SI5338P-B04154-GMR deliver for PCIe Gen 4 applications?
SI5338P-B04154-GMR delivers 0.15–0.45 ps RMS jitter in PCIe Gen 4 Common Clock mode (per PCI-SIG Base Spec 4.0 rev. 0.5), measured at 100 MHz HCSL output with PLL bandwidth set to 2–4 MHz and CDR at 10 MHz - fully compliant for root complex and endpoint timing.
Can SI5338P-B04154-GMR generate different output voltages simultaneously on its four outputs?
Yes. SI5338P-B04154-GMR provides independent VDDO0–VDDO3 supply 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 concurrently. This enables direct interfacing with mixed-voltage ASICs, FPGAs, and PHYs without external level translators.
