Description
The Si5335 is a highly flexible clock generator capable of synthesizing four completely
non-integer-related frequencies up to 350 MHz. The device has four banks of outputs
with each bank supporting one differential pair or two single-ended outputs. Using
Skyworks Solutions' patented MultiSynth fractional divider technology, all outputs are
guaranteed to have 0 ppm frequency synthesis error regardless of configuration,
enabling the replacement of multiple clock ICs and crystal oscillators with a single
device. The Si5335 supports up to three independent, pin-selectable device
configurations, enabling one device to replace three separate clock generators or
buffer ICs. To ease system design, up to five user-assignable and pin-selectable
control pins are provided, supporting PCIe-compliant spread spectrum control, master
and/or individual output enables, frequency plan selection, and device reset. Two
selectable PLL loop bandwidths support jitter attenuation in applications, such as PCIe
and DSL. Through its flexible ClockBuilder Pro web configuration utility, factory-
customized, pin-controlled devices are available in two weeks without minimum order
quantity restrictions.
Measuring PCIe clock jitter is quick and easy with the Skyworks Solutions PCIe Clock
