Product details
Overview
SI5380A-D08067-GM from Skyworks Solutions is a 12-output, integer-based JESD204B jitter attenuator and clock multiplexer optimized for wireless small cell infrastructure. It delivers ultra-low phase noise (–159 dBc/Hz floor), 65 fs RMS jitter (12 kHz–20 MHz), and supports DCLK/SYSREF generation with hitless switching across four differential or LVCMOS inputs. Its DSPLL architecture eliminates external VCXO and analog loop filters, enabling robust clock synthesis in RRU and picocell baseband timing applications.
For engineers reviewing the SI5380A-D08067-GM datasheet, SI5380A-D08067-GM pinout, SI5380A-D08067-GM application, or SI5380A-D08067-GM equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world use cases, validated alternatives, and supply-chain support tailored to LTE/LTE-A and JESD204B data converter timing systems.
Technical Context
The SI5380A-D08067-GM implements Skyworks' 4th-generation DSPLL with a 15 GHz VCO, programmable digital loop filter (0.1 Hz–100 Hz bandwidth), and integrated 54 MHz crystal oscillator. It operates in freerun, locked, holdover, and fast-lock acquisition modes - all managed autonomously without host intervention.
Its 12 outputs support independent configuration: differential (LVDS/LVPECL) up to 1.47456 GHz or LVCMOS up to 245.76 MHz, with output skew ≤65 ps (same N-divider), configurable common-mode voltage, and synchronous enable/disable. Input monitoring includes LOS, OOF, and LOL detection with interrupt signaling via INTRb.
Key Specifications

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| DSPLL jitter attenuation | Eliminates external VCXO and analog loop filter components - reduces BOM count by ≥4 parts and improves layout immunity to PSRR noise |
| JESD204B DCLK/SYSREF support | Generates phase-matched DCLK/SYSREF pairs from same Multisynth - satisfies Subclass 1 deterministic latency requirements without external alignment logic |
| Hitless input switching | Prevents phase transients during clock source failover between frequency-locked inputs - maintains continuous data capture in ADC/DAC chains |

Applications
| Remote Radio Unit (RRU) Timing | JESD204B Data Converter Clocking |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Synchronizing multiple transceiver ICs and ADC/DACs in a compact RRU module with shared backhaul interface. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary jitter-attenuated clock source generating DCLK, SYSREF, and local FPGA clocks from a single 122.88 MHz reference. Use Value: 65 fs jitter ensures <–80 dBc SFDR in 16-bit ADCs; DSPLL holdover maintains timing continuity during fronthaul link interruption. |
Use Scenario: Providing deterministic, low-jitter sampling clocks to multi-channel high-speed ADCs and DACs in software-defined radio (SDR) platforms. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: JESD204B-compliant clock generator delivering phase-aligned DCLK/SYSREF pairs with <100 ps inter-lane skew. Use Value: Ultra-low phase noise (–159 dBc/Hz) prevents reciprocal mixing in wideband receivers; hitless switching avoids data corruption during reference switchover. |
| Small Cell Base Station | Wireless Backhaul Synchronization |
Use Scenario: Timing engine for LTE-A picocell baseband processing, supporting carrier aggregation and MIMO signal paths. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Multi-output clock synthesizer generating 30.72 MHz, 122.88 MHz, and 245.76 MHz clocks for BBIC, RFIC, and fronthaul PHY layers.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar jitter attenuator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si5386A-D06871-GM | Supports JESD204B Subclass 1 with programmable DCLK–SYSREF phase offset; higher integration (16 outputs); newer revision with extended holdover algorithms | Required for applications needing dynamic SYSREF phase adjustment (e.g., beamforming calibration cycles) | Select Si5386A-D06871-GM when phase-adjustable SYSREF or >12 outputs are mandatory; not drop-in due to different register map and pinout |
| LTC6957IUF-3#PBF | Analog PLL-based jitter cleaner; 50 fs typical jitter; 4 outputs; requires external loop filter and VCXO; no integrated crystal oscillator | Better suited for low-channel-count, ultra-low-jitter legacy designs where DSPLL digital artifacts must be avoided | Choose LTC6957IUF-3#PBF only if analog PLL behavior is explicitly required; adds ≥3 external components and increases layout sensitivity |
Compared with SI5380A-D08067-GM, the Si5386A-D06871-GM offers enhanced JESD204B flexibility but requires redesign, while the LTC6957IUF-3#PBF trades integration and holdover autonomy for marginal jitter reduction at higher design complexity.

FAQ
Is SI5380A-D08067-GM recommended for new designs?
No - Skyworks marks SI5380A-D08067-GM as "Not Recommended for New Designs" per its Rev D datasheet. It remains fully supported for existing production and legacy refreshes, but new projects should evaluate the Si5386A-D series for improved JESD204B Subclass 1 features and extended lifecycle. SI5380A-D08067-GM continues to ship with full datasheet compliance and Aetrix's long-term supply assurance.
What crystal specifications are required for SI5380A-D08067-GM?
SI5380A-D08067-GM requires a 54 MHz fundamental-mode crystal with ±100 ppm total accuracy (including temp, voltage, aging), 8 pF load capacitance, and low ESR (<40 Ω). The device integrates internal 8 pF load caps - no external capacitors needed. Crystal layout must follow Skyworks Reference Manual guidelines to maintain <65 fs jitter performance.
Does SI5380A-D08067-GM support JESD204B Subclass 1 with deterministic latency?
SI5380A-D08067-GM supports JESD204B Subclass 1 only for phase-matched DCLK/SYSREF pairs generated from the same Multisynth. It does not support programmable DCLK–SYSREF phase offset. For full Subclass 1 deterministic latency with adjustable phase, Skyworks recommends the Si5386A-D06871-GM as the designated upgrade path.
How does SI5380A-D08067-GM handle input clock failure in a wireless base station?
Upon input failure, SI5380A-D08067-GM automatically enters holdover mode using a programmable 120-second history buffer. It calculates an averaged holdover frequency from a user-defined window to minimize phase disturbance. Outputs remain stable within ±1 ppm for >10 seconds - sufficient for RRU fronthaul recovery protocols - and resume lock seamlessly when input returns.
Can SI5380A-D08067-GM generate both LVDS and LVCMOS outputs simultaneously?
Yes - SI5380A-D08067-GM supports mixed-signal outputs: any of its 12 outputs can be independently configured as LVDS, LVPECL, or LVCMOS (1.8 V/2.5 V/3.3 V). Each output has dedicated VDDO pins, enabling concurrent generation of differential clocks for RFICs and single-ended clocks for FPGAs or baseband processors on the same board.
