Product details
Overview
SI5350A-B01991-GM from Skyworks Solutions is a factory-programmed, pin-configurable CMOS clock generator delivering up to 8 independent output frequencies (2.5 kHz–200 MHz) with 0 ppm synthesis error, low period jitter (<70 ps pk-pk), and spread spectrum control per output. It replaces multiple crystals/XOs in audio/video processors, residential gateways, and networking equipment using a single 25 or 27 MHz crystal reference.
For engineers reviewing the SI5350A-B01991-GM datasheet, SI5350A-B01991-GM pinout, SI5350A-B01991-GM application, or SI5350A-B01991-GM equivalent, this device supports glitchless frequency switching, static phase offset, HCSL-compatible outputs (with 2.5 V VDDO), and user-defined control logic via P0–P4 pins - critical for EMI-sensitive, multi-clock SoC designs.
Technical Context
The SI5350A-B01991-GM implements a dual-PLL + eight fractional MultiSynth™ architecture, enabling simultaneous non-integer-related frequencies across its outputs. Each MultiSynth divider supports two programmable frequencies (F1_x/F2_x) selectable via FS_0/FS_1 pins on designated outputs.
It operates from a fixed 25 or 27 MHz crystal (XA/XB), features independent core (VDD) and output (VDDOx) supply rails (1.8/2.5/3.3 V), and delivers configurable rise/fall times, output state (high/low/Hi-Z) on disable, and per-output spread spectrum modulation (±0.1% to ±1.5%, 31.5 kHz rate).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output count | 8 independent CMOS clock outputs (CLK0–CLK7) |
| Frequency range | 2.5 kHz to 200 MHz per output; only two unique frequencies >112.5 MHz simultaneously allowed |
| Period jitter | <70 ps pk-pk (typ), measured across all 8 outputs running at specified test frequencies |
| Reference input | 25 MHz or 27 MHz fundamental-mode AT-cut crystal (XA/XB); no external load caps required for 6–10 pF CL |
| Supply flexibility | Separate VDD (1.71–3.6 V) and VDDOx (1.71–3.6 V) rails enable level translation and mixed-voltage system interfacing |
| Spread spectrum | Selectable per output: down-spread (–0.1% to –2.5%) or center-spread (±0.1% to ±1.5%), modulated at 31.5 kHz |
| Power consumption | 25 mA typ core current with all 8 outputs enabled; 50 µA in power-down mode (PDN = VDD) |
Pinout & Package
SI5350A-B01991-GM is packaged in a 20-pin QFN (4 mm × 4 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad. Pin functions are defined per Skyworks Rev. 1.2 datasheet Section 7.1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| XA, XB | Crystal reference input pair | Differential crystal oscillator interface; supports 25 or 27 MHz AT-cut crystals with internal 0/6/8/10 pF load capacitance |
| CLK0–CLK7 | CMOS clock outputs | Individually configurable frequency, drive strength, invert/non-invert, and spread spectrum; each tied to dedicated MultiSynth divider |
| VDD, GND | Core power and ground | Supplies PLLs, logic, and MultiSynths; requires local 0.1 µF decoupling; sequencing mandates VDD powered before or with VDDOx |
| VDDOA–VDDOD | Output buffer supplies | Four independent 1.71–3.6 V rails (VDDOA for CLK0/1, VDDOB for CLK2/3, etc.) enabling mixed-voltage clock distribution |
| P0–P4 | Configurable control inputs | Programmable as OEB_0/1/2 (output enable), PDN (global power-down), FS_0/FS_1 (dual-frequency select), or SSEN (spread spectrum enable) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-programmed configuration | Delivers exact pre-validated frequency plan (e.g., 74.25/24.576/48/125 MHz set) without I²C interface or runtime programming |
| Glitchless frequency switching | Hardware-controlled transition between F1_x and F2_x frequencies on CLK0–CLK2 (20-QFN) or CLK0–CLK1 (16-QFN) with zero cycle loss |
| HCSL-compatible outputs | Configurable via 2.5 V VDDO rail and external 511 Ω/240 Ω termination to meet HCSL jitter and swing requirements (only on 10-MSOP and 20-QFN packages) |
| Per-output spread spectrum | Independent enable/disable and profile selection (down/center spread, depth, rate) for EMI reduction on specific clock domains without affecting others |
| Static phase offset | Fixed, deterministic phase relationship between any two outputs - essential for timing-critical interfaces like HDMI pixel clocks and audio sample rates |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar clock generator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si5351A-B-GM | I²C-programmable (not factory-programmed); 8 outputs; requires external EEPROM or host MCU for configuration | Suitable for prototyping or field-upgradable systems where frequency plans change post-deployment | Choose Si5351A-B-GM if runtime reconfiguration or multi-design reuse is required; SI5350A-B01991-GM is optimal for fixed, high-volume production with guaranteed performance. |
| CDCE906PWR | TI device with 3 PLLs, 6 outputs; supports external clock input (CLKIN) in addition to crystal; no per-output spread spectrum | Better suited for systems requiring flexible reference sources (e.g., recovered clock from SERDES) or tighter phase noise specs at 12 kHz–20 MHz offset | Choose CDCE906PWR when external reference injection or lower integrated jitter in communication applications is prioritized over per-output EMI control. |

FAQ
What reference crystal frequency does the SI5350A-B01991-GM require?
The SI5350A-B01991-GM requires a 25 MHz or 27 MHz fundamental-mode AT-cut crystal connected to XA/XB pins. Internal load capacitance options (0/6/8/10 pF) eliminate need for external caps in most cases; crystals with 12 pF CL require ≤2 pF additional external capacitance. SI5350A-B01991-GM does not accept external clock signals at XTAL pins unless specifically configured during factory programming - standard operation uses crystal only.
Does the SI5350A-B01991-GM support HCSL-compatible outputs?
Yes, SI5350A-B01991-GM supports HCSL-compatible swing on CLK0–CLK7 when the corresponding VDDO rail (e.g., VDDOA for CLK0/CLK1) is set to 2.5 V and external 511 Ω/240 Ω termination is applied per output pair. This capability is confirmed for the 20-QFN package and enables direct interface with HCSL-receiving devices such as PCIe Gen1 endpoints without level-shifting circuitry.
How many unique high-frequency outputs can the SI5350A-B01991-GM generate simultaneously above 112.5 MHz?
The SI5350A-B01991-GM supports only two unique frequencies above 112.5 MHz at any time - for example, 125 MHz and 130 MHz. Multiple outputs may replicate the same high-frequency signal (e.g., four 125 MHz clocks), but introducing a third distinct frequency >112.5 MHz violates the device's synthesis resource allocation and will result in invalid configuration. This constraint is inherent to the dual-PLL/MultiSynth architecture.
Can the SI5350A-B01991-GM perform glitchless frequency switching?
Yes, SI5350A-B01991-GM supports hardware-based glitchless switching between two pre-programmed frequencies (F1_x and F2_x) on CLK0–CLK2 (20-QFN) using FS_0/FS_1 control pins. Transition occurs within 10 µs with zero cycle loss or metastability, verified under load conditions (CL = 5 pF, fCLKn > 1 MHz). This feature is factory-enabled and does not require I²C interaction or firmware intervention.
What is the maximum period jitter specification for the SI5350A-B01991-GM?
The SI5350A-B01991-GM has a typical period jitter of <70 ps pk-pk when all 8 outputs are active, measured across 10,000 cycles under worst-case real-world frequency plan (e.g., 33.33/74.25/27/24.576/22.5792/28.322/125/48 MHz). This value assumes default high-drive strength (50 Ω output impedance) and applies across the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and supply voltages (1.8/2.5/3.3 V).
