510EAA-AAAG

Overview

The Skyworks Solutions Inc. 510EAA-AAAG is a programmable standard clock oscillator from the Si510 series, designed for general-purpose applications. It operates at a supply voltage of 2.5V and features an LVPECL output format. The device supports frequencies ranging from 0.1 MHz to 250 MHz with a frequency stability of ±50 ppm. It utilizes a crystal base resonator and includes an enable/disable function. The component is housed in a 4-SMD, no-lead package measuring 7.00 mm x 5.00 mm with a maximum height of 1.80 mm. It functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and has a maximum supply current of 43 mA.

Feature Summary

• Programmable frequency generation capability via I2C interface
• LVPECL output format for high-speed digital interfaces
• Integrated enable/disable control pin for power management
• Compact surface-mount package suitable for space-constrained designs

Applications

• General-purpose clock distribution in embedded systems
• Timing reference for high-speed data converters
• Clock generation for network communication equipment
• Synchronization sources for FPGA-based logic circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific programming requirements and initial frequency configuration before procurement, as this is a programmable device. Confirm that the LVPECL output compatibility matches the receiving circuit's input specifications. Ensure the 2.5V supply voltage aligns with the system power architecture. Check for any required external components or termination resistors specified in the official datasheet for proper signal integrity.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise, programmable clock source with LVPECL outputs is required in a compact form factor. Consider the ±50 ppm stability requirement against the system's jitter tolerance. Evaluate the 43 mA maximum current consumption against available power budgets. Ensure the 7x5 mm footprint fits within the PCB layout constraints compared to other Si510 variants.

Part Context

The 510EAA-AAAG belongs to the Si510 family of standard oscillators manufactured by Skyworks Solutions Inc. This series offers flexibility through programmability, allowing designers to customize frequency and phase noise characteristics. Unlike fixed-frequency crystals, these devices provide tailored timing solutions for complex digital systems requiring multiple clock domains or specific frequency adjustments.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include other Si510 models with compatible packages and output formats. Verify that alternative part numbers support the required 2.5V supply and LVPECL outputs. Cross-reference pinouts and electrical parameters to ensure functional equivalence without redesigning the host circuit.
