SI5330F-A00216-GM

Clock Buffers, Drivers Overview

The SI5330F-A00216-GM is a low-jitter, low-skew clock buffer and level translator manufactured by Skyworks Solutions Inc. It accepts a single-ended input signal and generates eight single-ended CMOS outputs. The device operates with a core supply voltage of 1.8 V (range 1.71–1.98 V) and an independent output driver supply of 1.8 V. It supports input frequencies from 5 MHz to 200 MHz. Key electrical specifications include a typical additive phase jitter of 150 fs RMS, an output-to-output skew of 100 ps maximum, and a propagation delay of 4 ns maximum. The component is housed in a 24-lead, 4 x 4 mm QFN package.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Feature Summary

• Generates eight single-ended CMOS outputs from a single-ended input
• Supports input frequency range of 5 MHz to 200 MHz
• Typical additive jitter of 150 fs RMS (12 kHz – 20 MHz)
• Independent core (VDD) and output (VDDO) supply voltages

Clock Buffers, Drivers Applications

• High-speed clock distribution
• Ethernet switch/router
• PCI Express 2.0/3.0
• Telecom line cards

Clock Buffers, Drivers Procurement Notes

Verify the ordering suffix 'GM' indicates tube packaging, while 'GMR' indicates tape and reel. Confirm the specific voltage configuration matches the application requirements, as the 'A00216' code designates the 1.8 V CMOS variant. Check for RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level MSL3 requirements during storage and handling.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Selection Notes

Select this part when a single-ended source drives multiple CMOS loads requiring low skew. Ensure the load capacitance does not exceed the specified limits for the target frequency to maintain rise/fall times. Verify that the 1.8 V supply rails are stable within the -5% to +10% tolerance range for both core and output supplies.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Part Context

This component belongs to the Si5330 family of any-frequency, any-output clock buffers. The 'F' designation specifically identifies it as a single-ended input to eight single-ended CMOS output buffer. Other variants in the series support differential inputs or different output formats such as LVPECL, LVDS, and HCSL.

Clock Buffers, Drivers Replacement Considerations

Direct functional replacements within the same family include SI5330F-A00214-GM (3.3 V CMOS) and SI5330F-A00215-GM (2.5 V CMOS). For differential input applications requiring the same output format, consider SI5330G-A00219-GM.
