Product details
Overview
SI5347B-B-GMR from Skyworks Solutions is a quad-DSPLL jitter-attenuating clock multiplier with 4 independent DSPLLs, 8 differential/LVCMOS outputs, and ultra-low 95 fs RMS jitter (12 kHz–20 MHz). It supports any-frequency input-to-output synthesis (up to 350 MHz output), hitless/automatic input switching, and operates across –40°C to +85°C for carrier-grade Ethernet line cards.
For engineers reviewing the SI5347B-B-GMR datasheet, SI5347B-B-GMR pinout, SI5347B-B-GMR application, or SI5347B-B-GMR equivalent, key selection considerations include its 350 MHz max output frequency (vs. 720 MHz in SI5347A), 0.1 Hz–4 kHz programmable DSPLL loop bandwidth per channel, integrated NVM for known-power-up state, and support for gapped-clock synchronization in SyncE systems.
Technical Context
The SI5347B-B-GMR implements four independent digitally controlled PLLs (DSPLLs), each with fractional-N frequency synthesis (Pn/Pd, Mn/Md, Rn dividers) enabling arbitrary input-to-output frequency conversion. Each DSPLL accesses all four inputs (IN0–IN3) via a flexible crosspoint matrix and routes to any of eight outputs (OUT0–OUT7).
It supports three core operational modes: Locked Mode (phase/frequency lock to selected input), Free-run Mode (crystal-referenced, ±100 ppm accuracy), and Holdover Mode (averaged historical frequency retention up to 120 s). Status monitoring includes LOS, OOF, and LOL detection with interrupt pin (INTRb) and configurable holdover exit ramping (0.2–40,000 ppm/s).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Jitter (RMS) | 95 fs (12 kHz–20 MHz integration band); enables compliance with ITU-T G.8262 eECVC requirements for SyncE. |
| Output Frequency Range | 100 Hz–350 MHz (differential); defines maximum usable clock rate for 10G/100G line card PHY interfaces. |
| Input Frequency Range | Differential: 8 kHz–750 MHz; LVCMOS: 8 kHz–250 MHz - supports legacy SONET/SDH, SyncE, and broadcast video references. |
| DSPLL Loop Bandwidth | 0.1 Hz–4 kHz (per DSPLL, register-configurable); sets jitter attenuation cutoff and lock acquisition time trade-off. |
| Crystal Reference | 25–54 MHz external crystal on XA/XB; internal load caps eliminate external capacitors, reducing BOM and noise coupling. |
| Supply Voltages | VDD = 1.8 V ±5%, VDDA = 3.3 V ±5%; independent output supply pins (1.8/2.5/3.3 V) enable mixed-voltage system interfacing. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial and telecom infrastructure deployment without derating. |
Pinout & Package
SI5347B-B-GMR is housed in a 64-pin QFN package (9 mm × 9 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad. Pin functions are validated per Skyworks Si5347 Rev D datasheet Section 9 (Pin Descriptions).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN0–IN3 | Differential or LVCMOS input clocks | Four configurable reference inputs; each supports ac-coupled differential (LVDS/LVPECL/CML/HCSL) or dc/ac-coupled LVCMOS. |
| OUT0–OUT7 | Programmable clock outputs | Eight outputs supporting LVDS, LVPECL, LVCMOS, CML, HCSL; individually configurable voltage, swing, polarity, and termination. |
| XA/XB | Crytal oscillator interface | Connects 25–54 MHz fundamental-mode crystal; internal 12 pF load caps eliminate external components. |
| SCL/SDA or SCLK/SDIO/CSb | I²C or SPI serial interface | Two-wire or four-wire programming interface; supports in-circuit configuration and NVM write during system operation. |
| INTRb | Interrupt output | Open-drain status flag indicating LOS, OOF, LOL, or holdover entry/exit - enables real-time fault monitoring without polling. |
| RSTb | Hardware reset input | Active-low asynchronous reset; triggers full initialization and NVM reload - ensures deterministic power-up behavior. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad independent DSPLLs | Enables four isolated timing domains on one die - eliminates inter-channel crosstalk and simplifies multi-protocol line card design (e.g., OTN + SyncE + CPRI). |
| Hitless input switching | Preserves phase continuity when switching between frequency-locked inputs (e.g., primary/backup SyncE sources), avoiding packet loss in time-sensitive networks. |
| Programmable holdover window | Stores 120 s of locked-frequency history; user-selectable averaging window/delay minimizes phase jump during reference failure - critical for G.8262 Class C compliance. |
| Gapped clock synchronization | Locks to intentionally missing-cycle inputs (e.g., modulated 100 MHz → 90 MHz average); enables precise frequency synthesis without external dividers or modulators. |
| In-circuit NVM programming | Non-volatile OTP memory retains full configuration across power cycles - eliminates boot-time I²C/SPI initialization and guarantees repeatable startup behavior. |
Applications
| OTN Muxponder Timing | SyncE Line Card PLL |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 100G OTN muxponder requiring low-jitter clocks for FEC, mapping, and client interface PHYs with redundant reference inputs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Jitter attenuator and frequency translator synchronizing OTU4 framing logic and 100G Ethernet MAC to primary/backup line references.

Use Value: Programmable 0.1 Hz loop bandwidth achieves <0.1 ppm wander transfer; holdover stability meets G.8262 Class C holdover spec. |
| Broadcast Video Genlock | 100G Network Processor Clocking |
Use Scenario: SMPTE ST 2059-2 compliant video router requiring genlock to tri-level or black burst reference with sub-sample phase alignment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-phase-noise clock generator producing 74.25 MHz, 148.5 MHz, and 297 MHz pixel clocks synchronized to analog video reference.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar jitter-attenuating clock generator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI5347A-B-GMR | Same 64-QFN package and quad-DSPLL architecture, but supports 720 MHz max output frequency vs. 350 MHz. | Required for >350 MHz applications (e.g., 56G PAM4 SerDes, 400G-FR4 optical interfaces). | Select SI5347A-B-GMR only if output frequencies above 350 MHz are needed; SI5347B-B-GMR offers cost and power advantage for ≤350 MHz use cases. |
| LMK04832ISQE/NOPB | TI dual-loop jitter cleaner with 3.1 GHz VCO; higher max output (3.1 GHz) but only two outputs and no gapped-clock support. | Better suited for RF sampling clocking or high-frequency ADC/DAC sync; lacks quad-domain isolation and SyncE-specific holdover features. | Choose LMK04832 for RF/data converter timing where ultra-high frequency (>1 GHz) is critical; SI5347B-B-GMR preferred for telecom infrastructure with multi-domain, gapped-clock, or strict holdover needs. |
Compared with SI5347A-B-GMR, SI5347B-B-GMR trades maximum output frequency for optimized cost and power in ≤350 MHz applications, while retaining identical DSPLL count, holdover intelligence, and gapped-clock capability. Against LMK04832, it provides superior multi-domain isolation and telecom-specific features at lower RF frequency range.

FAQ
What is the maximum output frequency supported by the SI5347B-B-GMR?
The SI5347B-B-GMR supports a maximum differential output frequency of 350 MHz, as defined in the Si5347 ordering guide (Table 2.1) and confirmed in the Rev D datasheet Feature List. This distinguishes it from the SI5347A variant (720 MHz max) and makes it optimized for 10G/100G Ethernet, OTN, and broadcast video clocking where frequencies ≤350 MHz are standard. The SI5347B-B-GMR maintains identical jitter performance (95 fs RMS) and DSPLL architecture as higher-frequency variants.
Does the SI5347B-B-GMR support gapped clock inputs, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the SI5347B-B-GMR supports gapped clock synchronization - a feature explicitly documented in Section 3.6.8 of the Rev D datasheet. It locks to input clocks with intentionally missing periods (e.g., 100 MHz with one cycle removed every 10 cycles yields 90 MHz average output) using high-jitter-tolerance DSPLL architecture and low-loop-bandwidth configuration. This capability is inherent to the DSPLL design and requires no external circuitry; the SI5347B-B-GMR generates a clean, non-gapped output at the averaged frequency.
How does the holdover function work on the SI5347B-B-GMR, and what data is stored?
The SI5347B-B-GMR stores up to 120 seconds of historical frequency data while locked to a valid input clock. Upon reference loss, it calculates a final holdover frequency using a programmable window within that history - allowing users to exclude unstable data near failure. The holdover frequency drift depends solely on the XA/XB crystal or TCXO; for G.8262 Class C compliance, a TCXO is recommended. This behavior is identical across all SI5347 variants, including the SI5347B-B-GMR.
Can the SI5347B-B-GMR be programmed in-circuit, and what memory technology is used?
Yes, the SI5347B-B-GMR features in-circuit programmable non-volatile memory (OTP) that retains full configuration across power cycles. Programming is performed via I²C or SPI interface using ClockBuilder Pro™ software, and the device powers up in a known, factory- or user-defined state without host intervention. This OTP memory is integral to the silicon and does not require external EEPROM - a key reliability and boot-time advantage of the SI5347B-B-GMR.
What are the supported input signal types and termination requirements for IN0–IN3 on the SI5347B-B-GMR?
The SI5347B-B-GMR accepts differential (LVDS, LVPECL, CML, HCSL) and single-ended LVCMOS inputs on IN0–IN3. Differential inputs require standard 50 Ω ac-coupling; LVCMOS inputs support both ac- and dc-coupling (dc only for <1 MHz pulsed CMOS). Unused inputs may be disabled and left floating. Termination details - including optional R1/R2 resistors and C1 capacitor for 3.3 V LVCMOS drivers - are specified in Figure 3.5 and Table 5.3 of the Rev D datasheet for the SI5347B-B-GMR.
