Product details
Overview
SI5350A-B04458-GM from Skyworks Solutions is a factory-programmed, pin-controlled 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 configurable spread spectrum on any output. It replaces multiple crystals/XOs in audio/video systems, residential gateways, and networking equipment using a single 25 or 27 MHz crystal reference.
For engineers reviewing the SI5350A-B04458-GM datasheet, SI5350A-B04458-GM pinout, SI5350A-B04458-GM application, or SI5350A-B04458-GM equivalent, key selection factors include its 20-QFN package with 20 pins, dual-PLL + fractional MultiSynth architecture, independent VDD/VDDO voltage rails (1.8/2.5/3.3 V), and support for glitchless frequency switching via FS_0/FS_1 control pins.
Technical Context
The SI5350A-B04458-GM implements two high-frequency PLLs (PLLA and PLLB) feeding eight independent fractional MultiSynth dividers-one per output-enabling simultaneous non-integer-related frequencies. PLLA supports spread spectrum modulation (±0.1% to ±1.5% center-spread, 30–33 kHz rate); PLLB does not.
It accepts only a fixed 25 or 27 MHz crystal (XA/XB), not external clock inputs, and uses internal load capacitance options (0/6/8/10 pF) for XTAL interface. Output drive strength defaults to 50 Ω impedance, with rise/fall times of 1–1.5 ns (20–80%, CL = 5 pF).
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; max two unique frequencies >112.5 MHz simultaneously |
| Period jitter | <70 ps pk-pk (typical, all outputs active, worst-case config) |
| Core supply | 1.71–1.89 V, 2.25–2.75 V, or 3.0–3.6 V - supports mixed-voltage system integration |
| Output supply | VDDOx independently configurable per output bank (1.71–1.89 V / 2.25–2.75 V / 3.0–3.6 V) |
| Crystal reference | 25 MHz or 27 MHz fundamental-mode AT-cut crystal only (no CLKIN support) |
| Spread spectrum | Selectable per-output down-spread (–0.1% to –2.5%) or center-spread (±0.1% to ±1.5%) at 30–33 kHz |
Pinout & Package
SI5350A-B04458-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 |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for core and output supplies; must be connected to low-impedance PCB plane |
| VDD | Core supply input | Supplies PLLs, logic, and MultiSynths; sequencing requires VDD powered before or with VDDOx |
| VDDOA–VDDOD | Output buffer supplies | Four independent VDDO rails (each powers two CLK outputs); enable level translation and HCSL compatibility at 2.5 V |
| CLK0–CLK7 | CMOS clock outputs | Eight configurable outputs; each supports invert/non-invert, high/low/Hi-Z disable state, and optional FS-selectable dual frequency |
| XA, XB | Crytal oscillator inputs | Differential crystal connection; internal load caps (0/6/8/10 pF) programmable via ClockBuilder Pro |
| P0–P4 | Configurable control pins | Factory-assigned roles: P0=FS_0, P1=FS_1, P2=OEB_0, P3=OEB_1, P4=OEB_2 (output enables); SSEN and PDN assigned to unused pins if not needed |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-programmed configuration | Delivers exact pre-validated frequency plan (no I²C programming required in-system) |
| Glitchless frequency switching | FS_0/FS_1 pins change output frequency without clock interruption or phase discontinuity |
| HCSL-compatible swing | Configurable via 2.5 V VDDO rail + external termination (511 Ω/240 Ω) on CLK pairs for PCIe Gen1 compliance |
| Independent output power-down | Unused CLK outputs can be disabled individually to reduce total current (typ. 25 mA with all 8 enabled) |
| High PSRR | Eliminates need for external LDOs or ferrite beads on VDD/VDDO lines |
Applications
| Audio/Video Processing | Residential Gateway |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: HDMI transmitter, audio codec, and video processor require synchronized clocks at 74.25 MHz, 24.576 MHz, and 48 MHz within same SoC platform. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single-source multi-frequency clock generator replacing three discrete XOs and reducing board space by >60%. Use Value: Eliminates timing skew between domains, supports dynamic frequency switching during format changes, and lowers BOM cost versus multiple oscillators. | Use Scenario: DSL/cable gateway integrates CPU, Ethernet PHY, USB controller, and Wi-Fi SoC - each requiring distinct clock frequencies (33.33 MHz, 125 MHz, 48 MHz, 28.322 MHz). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Centralized clock hub providing isolated, low-jitter clocks with independent voltage rails per subsystem. Use Value: Enables clean power domain separation (1.8 V CPU, 3.3 V PHY), reduces EMI via per-output spread spectrum, and simplifies layout with single crystal reference. |
| Networking Equipment | XO Replacement |
Use Scenario: Small-form-factor switch uses 25 MHz crystal but needs 25 MHz, 125 MHz, and 250 MHz clocks for MAC, PHY, and SerDes interfaces. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Frequency-flexible clock synthesizer generating integer and non-integer multiples from one reference. Use Value: Avoids costly high-frequency XO sourcing; supports future firmware updates to adjust frequencies without hardware change. | Use Scenario: Legacy design uses four 25 MHz XOs for different peripherals; redesign targets cost reduction and supply chain consolidation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Drop-in replacement clock generator with identical 25 MHz crystal interface and pin-compatible 20-QFN footprint. Use Value: Reduces component count from 4 → 1, cuts inventory SKUs, and improves long-term availability versus aging XO vendors. |

FAQ
What is the reference clock requirement for SI5350A-B04458-GM?
The SI5350A-B04458-GM requires a 25 MHz or 27 MHz fundamental-mode AT-cut crystal connected across XA and XB pins. It does not accept external clock signals (CLKIN) - only crystal reference. Internal load capacitance options (0/6/8/10 pF) are factory-configured to match the crystal's specified load value, eliminating external capacitors in most cases.
Does SI5350A-B04458-GM support HCSL output levels?
Yes, SI5350A-B04458-GM supports HCSL-compatible swing 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 configuration meets PCIe Gen1 jitter and amplitude requirements and is validated for use in 20-QFN and 10-MSOP packages.
How many frequencies above 112.5 MHz can SI5350A-B04458-GM generate simultaneously?
SI5350A-B04458-GM can output no more than two *unique* frequencies above 112.5 MHz at once (e.g., 125 MHz and 130 MHz). However, it can replicate the same high-frequency signal across multiple outputs - for example, 125 MHz on CLK0–CLK3 and 130 MHz on CLK4–CLK7 - satisfying multi-lane SerDes timing requirements.
Can SI5350A-B04458-GM be reprogrammed after deployment?
No, SI5350A-B04458-GM is factory-programmed with a fixed configuration and has no I²C interface or in-field reprogramming capability. Its pin-strapped control (FS_0/FS_1, OEB_0–OEB_2, SSEN, PDN) allows runtime selection among pre-defined modes but does not permit altering the base frequency plan or PLL parameters post-manufacture.
What is the thermal performance of SI5350A-B04458-GM in a 4-layer PCB layout?
In a standard 4-layer board per JESD51-5/7, SI5350A-B04458-GM (20-QFN) exhibits θJA = 41 °C/W and ΨJB = 16 °C/W. With typical 25 mA core current and 8 active outputs, junction temperature rise remains under 25 °C above ambient at 25 °C ambient - well within the –40 to 85 °C operating range and supporting reliable operation in enclosed residential gateway enclosures.
