SI5338L-B06100-GMR

Overview

The SI5338L-B06100-GMR is a programmable quad clock generator from Skyworks Solutions, utilizing MultiSynth technology to synthesize any frequency on four independent output drivers. It supports differential and single-ended formats including LVPECL, LVDS, HCSL, CMOS, SSTL, and HSTL. The device operates with a core supply of 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V and features low phase jitter of 0.7 ps RMS typical. It accepts flexible inputs such as external crystals (8–30 MHz), CMOS (up to 200 MHz), and differential signals (up to 710 MHz). Configuration is performed via an I²C/SMBus interface.

Feature Summary

• MultiSynth™ technology enables independent, any-frequency synthesis on four output drivers with 0 ppm precision.

• Highly configurable outputs supporting LVPECL, LVDS, HCSL, CMOS, SSTL, and HSTL formats.
• Flexible input reference options including external crystal, CMOS, SSTL/HSTL, and differential inputs.

Applications

• Ethernet switch/router
• PCIe Gen1/2/3/4 common clock and SRNS
• Processor and FPGA clocking
• Broadcast video/audio timing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current documentation to confirm package type and tape/reel specifications. Ensure the design utilizes the recommended 4x4 mm QFN land pattern for optimal thermal and electrical performance. Confirm that the I2C pull-up voltages align with the supported range of 1.71 V to 3.63 V.

Selection Notes

Select this component when zero-ppm frequency accuracy and low jitter are required for multiple clock domains. Verify that the target output frequencies fall within the supported ranges for the chosen signal format (e.g., up to 710 MHz for LVDS/LVPECL). Ensure the input source matches one of the supported types, such as a differential clock up to 710 MHz or a crystal between 8 and 30 MHz.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Si5338 family of I2C-programmable clock generators. The 'L' in the part number typically denotes a specific configuration or variant within the series, while the suffix '-GMR' indicates a lead-free, halogen-free RoHS-compliant product packaged in a reel for surface-mount assembly.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same family include other Si5338 variants with different factory configurations, such as SI5338A, SI5338B, or SI5338Q, provided the pinout and electrical characteristics remain compatible. Verify that the substitute part supports the required output formats and frequencies.
