SI5338N-B06176-GM

Overview

The SI5338N-B06176-GM is a programmable quad clock generator utilizing MultiSynth technology. It synthesizes any frequency on four independent output drivers with zero ppm precision. The device supports differential and single-ended outputs including LVPECL, LVDS, CML, HCSL, CMOS, SSTL, and HSTL. Maximum output frequencies reach 710 MHz for differential formats and 200 MHz for CMOS. It operates from a 1.8 V, 2.5 V, or 3.3 V core supply with typical current consumption of 45 mA. Phase jitter is typically 0.7 ps RMS.

Feature Summary

• MultiSynth technology enables independent, any-frequency synthesis on four output drivers
• Supports flexible input references: external crystal (8-30 MHz), CMOS (5-200 MHz), SSTL/HSTL (5-350 MHz), and differential (5-710 MHz)
• Independent output voltage per driver selectable at 1.5, 1.8, 2.5, or 3.3 V
• Glitchless frequency adjustments via independent increment/decrement feature in 1 ppm steps

Applications

• PCIe Gen 1/2/3/4 Common Clock and Gen 3 SRNS compliant timing
• Ethernet switch/router clocking
• Processor and FPGA clocking
• Broadcast video/audio timing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific factory-programmed NVM configuration associated with the B06176 suffix against system requirements. Confirm that the QFN-24 package dimensions and thermal characteristics meet PCB layout constraints. Ensure I2C pull-up voltages are compatible with the selected core supply voltage.

Selection Notes

Select this component when independent frequency synthesis across multiple domains is required. Verify that the target output formats (LVPECL, LVDS, etc.) align with the receiver specifications. Check that the input reference source matches the supported frequency ranges for crystal or differential inputs.
