Product details
Overview
SI5347C-B04937-GM from Skyworks is a quad-DSPLL jitter-attenuating clock multiplier with 4 independent PLLs, 8 differential/LVCMOS outputs, and ultra-low 95 fs RMS jitter (12 kHz–20 MHz). It supports any-frequency input-to-output synthesis (100 Hz–720 MHz differential), hitless/automatic input switching, and operates across –40°C to +85°C for OTN transponders and SyncE line cards.
For engineers reviewing the SI5347C-B04937-GM datasheet, SI5347C-B04937-GM pinout, SI5347C-B04937-GM application, or SI5347C-B04937-GM equivalent, key selection considerations include per-DSPLL loop bandwidth configurability (0.1 Hz–4 kHz), in-circuit programmable OTP memory, XA/XB crystal reference support (25–54 MHz), and output skew ≤65 ps when sourced from the same DSPLL.
Technical Context
The SI5347C-B04937-GM implements four independent 4th-generation DSPLLs, each with fractional-N frequency synthesis (Pn/Pd, Mn/Md, Rn dividers), programmable loop bandwidth (0.1 Hz–4 kHz), and Fastlock mode (100 Hz–4 kHz) for rapid lock acquisition. Each DSPLL accesses all four inputs (IN0–IN3) via a flexible crosspoint matrix and drives any of eight outputs (OUT0–OUT7).
It supports Free-run, Locked, Holdover, and DCO modes with glitchless frequency transitions, ramped holdover exit (0.2–40,000 ppm/s), and status monitoring (LOS/OOF/LOL). Core supply is 1.8 V ±5% (VDD), analog supply 3.3 V ±5% (VDDA), and output supplies are independently configurable at 3.3/2.5/1.8 V.

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Per-DSPLL loop bandwidth control | 0.1 Hz–4 kHz digitally programmable - enables precise jitter filtering trade-offs: narrow BW for wander suppression, wide BW for fast transient response. |
| Hitless input switching | Supported for integer-related input frequencies - eliminates phase discontinuity during protection switching in redundant clock systems. |
| Ramped holdover exit | Configurable ramp rate (0.2–40,000 ppm/s) - prevents frequency overshoot and minimizes phase error when recovering from input failure. |
| Gapped clock synchronization | Locks to modulated inputs with missing cycles - enables accurate averaging of burst-mode timing signals (e.g., OTN OPUk frame alignment). |
| In-circuit programmable OTP | Non-volatile memory stores full configuration - ensures known-power-up state without external EEPROM or host firmware initialization. |
Applications
| OTN Transponders | SyncE Line Cards |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 100G coherent transponder requiring independent 156.25 MHz, 311.04 MHz, and 622.08 MHz clocks for FEC, DSP, and SerDes blocks. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Quad-DSPLL jitter attenuator generating four uncorrelated low-jitter clocks from a single 10 MHz reference and two OCXO-derived inputs. Use Value: 95 fs RMS jitter meets ITU-T G.8262 Class C mask; independent DSPLLs prevent cross-domain interference in multi-ASIC signal chains. |
Use Scenario: Carrier Ethernet switch line card needing compliant SyncE timing with automatic failover between primary and backup PTP grandmaster clocks. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Jitter attenuator with automatic hitless switching and holdover using TCXO on XA/XB for <100 ns wander during input loss. Use Value: Programmable 0.1 Hz loop bandwidth satisfies G.8273.2 T-BC wander limits; ramped holdover exit avoids phase jumps during recovery. |
| Broadcast Video Distribution | 100G Data Center Interconnect |
Use Scenario: SMPTE ST 2082-1 (12G-SDI) distribution amplifier requiring genlock to tri-level sync while generating 27 MHz, 74.25 MHz, and 148.5 MHz pixel clocks. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Any-frequency synthesizer locking to analog sync input and producing multiple video-rate clocks with sub-picosecond phase alignment. Use Value: Output skew ≤65 ps (same DSPLL) ensures pixel-clock coherence across parallel video lanes; LVCMOS outputs drive FPGA video interfaces directly. |
Use Scenario: Coherent optical module with integrated DSP needing 531.25 MHz, 265.625 MHz, and 132.8125 MHz clocks for ADC/DAC sampling and forward error correction. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Jitter-attenuating clock multiplier accepting 100 MHz differential reference and synthesizing multiple SerDes rates with independent jitter cleanup. Use Value: Four DSPLLs enable domain-isolated clocking for analog front-end, digital baseband, and control logic - eliminating shared-noise coupling paths. |
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-D-GM | Same quad-DSPLL architecture, identical 64-QFN package, but rated for full 0.0001–720 MHz output range (vs. SI5347C-B04937-GM's factory-programmed 0.0001–720 MHz config with B04937 firmware). | Unprogrammed blank; requires ClockBuilder Pro configuration vs. SI5347C-B04937-GM's preloaded firmware for immediate deployment. | Select SI5347A-D-GM only if custom frequency plans or dynamic reconfiguration are required post-deployment. |
| LTC6957-4 | Quad-output jitter cleaner with single PLL (not quad-DSPLL); 226 fs RMS jitter (12 kHz–20 MHz); max 3.1 GHz output; no gapped clock support. | Lacks independent timing domains and automatic holdover - suitable for simpler single-reference systems where cost and footprint are prioritized over telecom-grade redundancy. | Choose LTC6957-4 only for non-telecom applications with single-input clock trees and relaxed jitter (<250 fs) requirements. |
Compared with SI5347C-B04937-GM, Si5347A-D-GM offers full field programmability at the cost of added configuration effort, while LTC6957-4 trades architectural flexibility and ultra-low jitter for lower BOM count and smaller footprint in less demanding timing systems.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the SI5347C-B04937-GM in a telecom timing system?
The SI5347C-B04937-GM serves as a quad-DSPLL jitter-attenuating clock multiplier that cleans and regenerates multiple independent clock domains from noisy or unstable references. Its 95 fs RMS jitter, hitless switching, and programmable loop bandwidth make it ideal for meeting ITU-T G.8262 SyncE and G.8273.2 T-BC standards in OTN and carrier Ethernet systems. SI5347C-B04937-GM ensures timing integrity across ASICs, FPGAs, and SerDes blocks under varying input conditions.
Does the SI5347C-B04937-GM support automatic failover between redundant input clocks?
Yes, the SI5347C-B04937-GM supports automatic input selection with revertive and non-revertive priority schemes per DSPLL. It continuously monitors IN0–IN3 for LOS and OOF, switches to the highest-priority valid input, and enters Holdover Mode if no inputs qualify. Hitless switching preserves phase continuity when inputs are frequency-locked, and ramped switching manages plesiochronous transitions - all without host intervention. SI5347C-B04937-GM delivers autonomous timing resilience.
Can the SI5347C-B04937-GM generate clocks from a gapped or burst-mode input signal?
Yes, the SI5347C-B04937-GM is explicitly designed to synchronize to gapped clock inputs - those with intentionally missing cycles used for frequency modulation. Its DSPLL architecture tolerates large jitter on the input and produces a clean, continuous, non-gapped output at the average input frequency. This capability is critical for OTN OPUk frame-aligned timing and other burst-mode protocols. SI5347C-B04937-GM maintains lock even with severe duty-cycle distortion.
What power supply configurations does the SI5347C-B04937-GM require?
The SI5347C-B04937-GM requires three distinct supply rails: VDD = 1.8 V ±5% for core logic, VDDA = 3.3 V ±5% for analog circuitry (including DSPLL VCOs), and independent output supply pins configurable for 3.3 V, 2.5 V, or 1.8 V to match downstream interface voltage levels. All supplies must be well-bypassed per Skyworks layout guidelines. SI5347C-B04937-GM does not support single-supply operation.
Is the SI5347C-B04937-GM preprogrammed, and how is it configured?
Yes, SI5347C-B04937-GM is a factory preprogrammed variant with ClockBuilder Pro configuration B04937 loaded into its on-chip OTP memory. It powers up immediately with defined input routing, output frequencies, loop bandwidths, and failover behavior - no external programming required. For custom configurations, unprogrammed Si5347A-D-GM is available and configured via I²C/SPI using ClockBuilder Pro software. SI5347C-B04937-GM eliminates startup delays in time-critical systems.
