Product details
Overview
SI5344A-B06214-GMR from Skyworks is a 4-input, 4-output jitter-attenuating clock multiplier with fourth-generation DSPLL™ and MultiSynth™ architecture. It delivers ultra-low 90 fs rms jitter, supports differential inputs up to 750 MHz and outputs up to 1028 MHz, and meets ITU-T G.8262 EEC Option 1/2 for Synchronous Ethernet. It is used in carrier-grade 10/40/100G line cards requiring hitless clock switching and holdover stability.
For engineers reviewing the SI5344A-B06214-GMR datasheet, SI5344A-B06214-GMR pinout, SI5344A-B06214-GMR application, or SI5344A-B06214-GMR equivalent, key selection considerations include its 44-QFN 7×7 mm package, programmable jitter attenuation bandwidth (0.1 Hz–4 kHz), dual-mode operation (locked/holdover), I²C/SPI configurability, and compliance with SyncE timing standards.
Technical Context
The SI5344A-B06214-GMR implements a digitally controlled DSPLL with integrated loop filter and programmable loop bandwidth (0.1 Hz–4 kHz), enabling precise jitter filtering and optimization per application. Its MultiSynth output dividers support both integer and fractional synthesis, allowing any-output-frequency generation from any-input-frequency across four independent outputs.
It features automatic and manual input clock switching with hitless, ramped, and glitchless modes; status monitoring (LOS/OOF/LOL); and configurable output formats (LVDS, LVPECL, LVCMOS, CML, HCSL) with programmable amplitude and common-mode voltage. Core supply is 1.8 V ±5%, analog supply 3.3 V ±5%, and output supplies support 1.8 V/2.5 V/3.3 V independently.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the SI5344A-B06214-GMR in a telecom timing system?
The SI5344A-B06214-GMR serves as a jitter-attenuating clock multiplier that cleans and regenerates timing signals from noisy or unstable network references. It locks to input clocks (e.g., from SyncE or PTP grandmasters), suppresses jitter using its DSPLL, and generates multiple low-jitter outputs for downstream ASICs, FPGAs, and SerDes. Its holdover capability maintains stable timing during input loss-ensuring continuous operation in carrier-class 10/40/100G line cards. The SI5344A-B06214-GMR is factory preprogrammed for immediate deployment without field configuration.
Does the SI5344A-B06214-GMR support Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE) compliance out of the box?
Yes, the SI5344A-B06214-GMR meets ITU-T G.8262 EEC Option 1 and Option 2 requirements for Enhanced Equipment Clocks. This compliance is achieved through its ultra-low 90 fs rms jitter, programmable DSPLL loop bandwidth (0.1 Hz–4 kHz), and robust holdover performance using historical frequency averaging. Because it is factory preprogrammed (B06214), the SI5344A-B06214-GMR delivers verified SyncE behavior without requiring user configuration-reducing qualification time for carrier equipment vendors.
How many clock inputs and outputs does the SI5344A-B06214-GMR support, and what interfaces are compatible?
The SI5344A-B06214-GMR supports four clock inputs (IN0–IN3) and four outputs (OUT0–OUT3). Inputs accept differential (LVDS/LVPECL/CML) or single-ended LVCMOS signals across 8 kHz–750 MHz (differential) or 8 kHz–250 MHz (LVCMOS). Outputs are fully programmable for LVDS, LVPECL, LVCMOS, CML, or HCSL signaling, with independent amplitude, common-mode voltage, and termination control per channel. This flexibility allows the SI5344A-B06214-GMR to interface directly with diverse PHYs, FPGAs, and network processors without level-shifting components.
What is the significance of the "B06214" suffix in SI5344A-B06214-GMR?
The "B06214" suffix identifies a factory preprogrammed configuration assigned by Skyworks, where the device ships with a specific, validated frequency plan stored in its non-volatile memory (NVM). This includes defined input selection priorities, output frequencies (e.g., 156.25 MHz, 312.5 MHz), signal formats, and operational modes-enabling immediate power-up functionality without host processor intervention. Unlike generic Si5344A-D-GM1 parts, the SI5344A-B06214-GMR guarantees timing behavior aligned to a known system requirement, reducing integration risk and accelerating time-to-market.
Can the SI5344A-B06214-GMR operate without an external crystal?
No-the SI5344A-B06214-GMR requires an external crystal connected to XA/XB pins (25–54 MHz fundamental-mode) to provide the reference for free-run and holdover modes. The internal oscillator uses this crystal to generate the ultra-low-jitter reference needed for DSPLL stability. While an external REFCLK can be substituted via register configuration, the SI5344A-B06214-GMR's factory programming assumes crystal-based operation optimized for jitter performance. For SyncE pizza-box applications requiring minimal wander, a TCXO is recommended-but the SI5344A-B06214-GMR itself still relies on XA/XB connection.
