Product details
Overview
SI5344A-B06230-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 (8 kHz–750 MHz) and LVCMOS (8 kHz–250 MHz) inputs, and generates programmable outputs up to 1028 MHz across LVDS/LVPECL/CML/HCSL/LVCMOS formats - deployed in SyncE-compliant carrier Ethernet switches and OTN transponders.
For engineers reviewing the SI5344A-B06230-GMR datasheet, SI5344A-B06230-GMR pinout, SI5344A-B06230-GMR application, or SI5344A-B06230-GMR equivalent, key selection criteria include its G.8262 EEC Option 1/2 compliance, digitally programmable jitter attenuation bandwidth (0.1 Hz–4 kHz), integrated loop filter, hitless/ramped/glitchless input switching, and factory-programmable NVM configuration for deterministic power-up behavior.
Technical Context
The SI5344A-B06230-GMR implements a fourth-generation DSPLL with fractional input dividers (P), high-resolution MultiSynth output dividers (N), and integer output dividers (R), enabling any-frequency synthesis from any input. Its fully integrated loop filter eliminates external component sensitivity, while digital bandwidth control (0.1 Hz–4 kHz) allows application-specific jitter filtering without analog tuning.
It operates in freerun, locked, holdover, and zero-delay modes, with automatic/manual input switching, status monitoring (LOS/OOF/LOL), and DCO mode offering 0.001 ppb step resolution. Input qualification supports gapped clocks, and output crosspoint routing enables flexible frequency-to-pin assignment independent of physical input source.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar jitter attenuator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si5344A-D-GM1 | Same silicon, 44-QFN package, but factory-configured with default NVM image - no preloaded custom frequency plan | Requires post-manufacture programming via ClockBuilder Pro; lacks BOM-ready configuration out-of-box | Select when design requires flexibility to reprogram in-system or when custom timing plans evolve post-deployment |
| LMK04832ISQE/NOPB | TI dual-loop jitter cleaner; higher power (1.2 W), larger 64-QFN package, supports JESD204B SYSREF but lacks DCO mode | Better suited for RF sampling systems needing deterministic latency; less optimized for SyncE holdover stability | Select when JESD204B deterministic delay or multi-device synchronization via TICS Pro is required over G.8262 compliance |
Compared with Si5344A-D-GM1, SI5344A-B06230-GMR offers guaranteed factory-loaded configuration for immediate deployment, while versus LMK04832ISQE/NOPB, it delivers lower jitter (90 fs vs. 110 fs), smaller footprint, and superior holdover performance - making it optimal for space-constrained, telecom-grade timing applications.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the SI5344A-B06230-GMR in a timing system?
The SI5344A-B06230-GMR serves as a jitter attenuating clock multiplier that cleans and regenerates timing signals from noisy or unstable sources. It uses a fourth-generation DSPLL to suppress input jitter while multiplying frequencies to generate multiple precise, low-jitter outputs - essential for maintaining signal integrity in SyncE, OTN, and broadcast video systems. The SI5344A-B06230-GMR achieves this with 90 fs rms jitter and programmable loop bandwidth.
Does the SI5344A-B06230-GMR require external loop filter components?
No, the SI5344A-B06230-GMR integrates the entire loop filter on-die, eliminating external resistors and capacitors. This reduces PCB area, improves noise immunity, and removes sensitivity to layout parasitics. The SI5344A-B06230-GMR's fully integrated architecture ensures consistent jitter attenuation performance across temperature and voltage variations without manual tuning.
How does the SI5344A-B06230-GMR support G.8262 Synchronous Ethernet compliance?
The SI5344A-B06230-GMR meets both EEC Option 1 and Option 2 specifications per ITU-T G.8262 through its ultra-low 90 fs rms jitter, programmable jitter attenuation bandwidth (0.1 Hz–4 kHz), and robust holdover performance using averaged historical frequency data. The SI5344A-B06230-GMR maintains phase continuity during input switching and provides status flags (LOL, LOS, OOF) required for SyncE network monitoring and protection switching.
Can the SI5344A-B06230-GMR operate without an external crystal?
No - the SI5344A-B06230-GMR requires a 25–54 MHz crystal connected to XA/XB pins to provide the stable reference for freerun and holdover modes. While it can accept an external REFCLK instead, the crystal option is recommended for optimal jitter performance. The SI5344A-B06230-GMR includes internal load capacitors, so no external C-L components are needed for crystal operation.
What interface options are supported for configuring the SI5344A-B06230-GMR?
The SI5344A-B06230-GMR supports both I²C (SCL/SDA) and SPI serial interfaces for register access, status monitoring, and NVM programming. I²C is commonly used for simpler host interfaces due to its two-wire requirement, while SPI offers faster configuration throughput. The SI5344A-B06230-GMR's ClockBuilder Pro software generates complete configuration files compatible with either interface, and factory preprogramming eliminates runtime dependency.
