Product details
Overview
SI5351A-B04364-GM from Skyworks Solutions is an I²C-programmable, 8-output CMOS clock generator with integrated crystal oscillator (no external VCXO), supporting frequencies from 2.5 kHz to 200 MHz per output, 0 ppm synthesis error, and independent 1.8/2.5/3.3 V output supply rails - used in residential gateways and networking equipment for multi-domain clock synthesis.
For engineers reviewing the SI5351A-B04364-GM datasheet, SI5351A-B04364-GM pinout, SI5351A-B04364-GM application, or SI5351A-B04364-GM equivalent, key selection criteria include its 20-QFN package, 8-output capability, absence of VCXO tuning (Si5351A variant), crystal-only reference (25/27 MHz), and I²C-configurable spread spectrum per output.
Technical Context
The SI5351A-B04364-GM implements a dual-PLL architecture with two high-resolution MultiSynth fractional dividers per PLL, enabling independent frequency synthesis on all eight outputs. It accepts only a 25 or 27 MHz crystal (XA/XB) - no CLKIN or VC input support - and lacks VCXO functionality, distinguishing it from Si5351B/C variants.
Each output features programmable rise/fall time, static phase offset, glitchless frequency switching, and configurable spread spectrum (±0.1% to ±1.5% center-spread or –0.1% to –2.5% down-spread at 31.5 kHz modulation rate), with output drive strength set to default 50 Ω impedance.
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 |
| Reference input | 25 or 27 MHz AT-cut crystal only (no CLKIN or VC support) |
| Period jitter | < 70 ps pk-pk (typical, all 8 outputs active, 20-QFN) |
| Supply rails | Core VDD: 2.5 V or 3.3 V; independent VDDOx: 1.8/2.5/3.3 V per output group |
| I²C interface | Standard/Fast mode (100/400 kbps); supports A0 address pin for multi-device bus |
| Power consumption | 27–45 mA total (8 outputs enabled, VDD = 2.5/3.3 V) |
Pinout & Package
SI5351A-B04364-GM is housed in a 20-pin QFN (4 mm × 4 mm, 0.5 mm pitch) with exposed thermal pad. Pin functions are validated per Skyworks Si5351A 20-pin QFN specification (Rev. 1.3, Section 10.1).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| XA, XB | Crystal oscillator inputs | Connect 25/27 MHz AT-cut crystal; internal load capacitance selectable (0/6/8/10 pF) |
| SCL, SDA, A0 | I²C control interface | SCL/SDA for configuration; A0 sets LSB of I²C address (0x60 or 0x61) |
| OEB | Output enable bar | Active-low global output disable; open-drain, requires pull-up |
| VDD, VDDOA–VDDOD | Power supply rails | VDD = core logic; VDDOA–D power four output groups (CLK0/1, CLK2/3, CLK4/5, CLK6/7) |
| CLK0–CLK7 | Differential-capable CMOS outputs | Single-ended CMOS outputs; support HCSL-compatible swing with proper termination |
| GND, EPAD | Ground and thermal pad | EPAD must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Any-frequency synthesis | Generates exact frequencies up to 200 MHz per output with zero ppm error via fractional MultiSynth dividers |
| Independent output voltage control | Four VDDO rails allow mixed-voltage system interfacing (e.g., 1.8 V MCU + 3.3 V PHY clocks) |
| Per-output spread spectrum | Reduces EMI by enabling selectable center/down-spread on each CLKn independently |
| Glitchless reprogramming | Frequency, phase, and duty cycle changes occur without output interruption or metastability |
| Low-jitter operation | 40–70 ps pk-pk period jitter enables timing-critical applications like PCIe Gen 1 and audio sampling clocks |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar clock generator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si5351B-B-GM | Includes VCXO with 0–VDD VC input and ±30 to ±240 ppm pull range; same 8-output 20-QFN package | Required where system-level frequency pulling (e.g., IEEE 1588 PTP servo) or jitter reduction via VCXO loop is needed | Select SI5351A-B04364-GM when only fixed-frequency crystal reference suffices; choose Si5351B-B-GM if voltage-controlled tuning is mandatory |
| Si5350A-B-GM | Pin-programmable (not I²C); factory preprogrammed only; identical 8-output 20-QFN footprint and crystal interface | Suitable for high-volume, unchanging clock plans where field reconfiguration is unnecessary | Choose SI5351A-B04364-GM for design flexibility and runtime reprogramming; select Si5350A-B-GM for cost-sensitive, static-clock applications |
Compared with Si5351B-B-GM, SI5351A-B04364-GM omits VCXO control but simplifies layout and reduces external component count; versus Si5350A-B-GM, it trades factory-only programming for full I²C configurability - making it optimal for prototyping and multi-configurable platforms.

FAQ
What is the reference clock requirement for SI5351A-B04364-GM?
The SI5351A-B04364-GM requires a 25 MHz or 27 MHz fundamental-mode AT-cut crystal connected to XA and XB pins. It does not accept external CLKIN or VC signals - this is a defining trait of the Si5351A variant. Internal load capacitance (0/6/8/10 pF) can be configured via register 183 to match crystal specifications, eliminating need for external capacitors in most cases.
Does SI5351A-B04364-GM support spread spectrum clocking?
Yes, SI5351A-B04364-GM supports per-output spread spectrum clocking with selectable center-spread (±0.1% to ±1.5%) or down-spread (–0.1% to –2.5%) modes modulated at 31.5 kHz. This feature is configured independently for each CLK0–CLK7 output via I²C registers and reduces electromagnetic interference without affecting functional timing margins.
Can SI5351A-B04364-GM generate frequencies above 112.5 MHz?
Yes, SI5351A-B04364-GM can generate frequencies up to 200 MHz on any output, but only two *unique* frequencies above 112.5 MHz may be active simultaneously (e.g., 125 MHz and 130 MHz). Duplicate frequencies (e.g., 125 MHz on four outputs) are permitted. This limitation arises from internal PLL resource allocation and is documented in Table 7 of the datasheet.
What are the power supply requirements for SI5351A-B04364-GM?
SI5351A-B04364-GM requires a core VDD supply of 2.5 V ±10% or 3.3 V ±10%, and four independent VDDO rails (VDDOA–D) each configurable for 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V to match connected ICs. Power sequencing mandates that all VDDO supplies be powered before or concurrently with VDD to prevent latch-up or undefined behavior during startup.
Is SI5351A-B04364-GM pin-compatible with other Si5351 variants?
Yes, SI5351A-B04364-GM in the 20-QFN package shares identical pinout and footprint with Si5351B-B-GM and Si5351C-B-GM. However, functional differences exist: SI5351A lacks VC and CLKIN pins (internally unconnected), so those pins must remain unconnected or tied to GND per datasheet guidance. No PCB change is needed for mechanical replacement, but firmware and schematic must reflect missing VCXO/CLKIN functionality.
