CLK2
The Si5356 is a highly flexible, I2C programmable clock generator capable of
synthesizing four completely non-integer related frequencies up to 200 MHz. The
device has four banks of outputs with each bank supporting two CMOS outputs at
the same frequency. Using Silicon Laboratories' 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. Each output bank is independently
configurable to support 1.8, 2.5, or 3.3 V. The device is programmable via an I2C/
SMBus-compatible serial interface and supports operation from a 1.8, 2.5, or
3.3 V core supply.

3. Functional Description
3.1. Overview
3.1.1. ClockBuilder™ Desktop Software
I 2C
The Si5356 is a highly flexible,
programmable clock
generator capable of synthesizing four independent
frequencies up to 200 MHz. The device has four banks
of outputs with each bank supporting two CMOS
outputs at the same frequency. The Si5356 supports
free-running mode of operation using an external
crystal, or it can lock to an external clock for generating
synchronous clocks. The output drivers support 1.8, 2.5,
and 3.3 V CMOS formats, and each output bank is
independently configurable. Adjustable output-to-output
phase offsets are also available to compensate for PCB
trace delays or for fine tuning of setup and hold
margins.
Configuration and control of the Si5356 is handled
through the I2C/SMBus interface. The device also
provides the option of storing a user-definable clock
configuration in its non-volatile memory (NVM), which
becomes the default clock configuration power-up. See
section "3.5.1. Ordering a Custom NVM Configuration"
on page 12 for details.
To simplify device configuration, Silicon Labs has
released the ClockBuilder Desktop. The software
serves two purposes: to configure the Si5356 with
optimal configuration based on the desired frequencies,
and to control the EVB, when connected to a host PC.
The optimal configuration can be saved from the
software in text files that can be used in any system,
which configures the device over I2C. ClockBuilder
Desktop can be downloaded from www.silabs.com/
ClockBuilder and runs on Windows XP, Windows Vista,
and Windows 7. Additionally, an NVM file can be
generated using the NVMSave for Factory
Programming... menu option. An NVM file can be used
by factory to prepare custom pre-programmed devices.

3.2. Input Configuration
The Si5356 input can be driven from either an external
crystal or a reference clock. If the crystal input option is
used, the Si5356 operates as a free-running clock
generator. In this mode of operation the device requires
a low cost 25 or 27 MHz fundamental mode crystal
connected across XA and XB as shown in Figure 1.
Given the Si5356’s frequency flexibility, the same crystal
can be reused to generate any combination of output
frequencies. Custom frequency crystals are not
required. The Si5356 integrates the crystal load
capacitors on-chip to reduce external component count.
The crystal should be placed very close to the device to
minimize stray capacitance. To ensure a stable and
accurate output frequency, the recommended crystal
specifications provided in Table 4 on page 6 must be
followed. See AN360 for additional details regarding
crystal recommendations.

For synchronous timing applications, the Si5356 can
lock to a 5 to 200 MHz CMOS reference clock. A typical
interface circuit is shown in Figure 2. A series
termination resistor matching the driver’s output
impedance to the impedance of the transmission line is
recommended to reduce reflections.

3.3. Breakthrough MultiSynth Technology
Modern timing architectures require a wide range of
frequencies which are often non-integer related.
Traditional clock architectures address this by using a
combination of single PLL ICs, 4-PLL ICs and discrete
XOs, often at the expense of BOM complexity and
power. The Si5356 use patented MultiSynth technology
to dramatically simplify timing architectures by
integrating the frequency synthesis capability of 4
phase-locked loops (PLLs) in a single device, greatly
minimizing size and power requirements versus
traditional solutions. Based on a fractional-N PLL, the
heart of the architecture is a low phase noise, highfrequency VCO. The VCO supplies a high frequency
output clock to the MultiSynth block on each of the four
independent output paths. Each MultiSynth operates as
a high-speed fractional divider with Silicon Laboratories'
proprietary phase error correction to divide down the
VCO clock to the required output frequency with very
low jitter.
The first stage of the MultiSynth architecture is a
fractional-N divider which switches seamlessly between
the two closest integer divider values to produce the
exact output clock frequency with 0 ppm error. To
eliminate phase error generated by this process,
MultiSynth calculates the relative phase difference
between the clock produced by the fractional-N divider
and the desired output clock and dynamically adjusts
the phase to match the ideal clock waveform. This novel
approach makes it possible to generate any output
clock frequency without sacrificing jitter performance.
Based on this architecture, each clock output can
produce any frequency from 1 to 200 MHz.
Figure 2. Interfacing CMOS Reference Clocks
to the Si5356
Control input signals to SSC_DIS and OEB cannot
exceed 1.3 V yet also need to meet the VOH and VOL
specifications outlined in Table 2 on page 4. When
these inputs are driven from CMOS sources, a resistive
attenuator as shown in the Typical Application Circuits

3.4. Frequency Configuration
Power-Up/POR
The Si5356 utilizes a single PLL-based architecture,
four independent MultiSynth fractional output dividers,
and a MultiSynth fractional feedback divider such that a
single device provides the clock generation capability of
four independent PLLs. Unlike competitive multi-PLL
solutions, the Si5356 can generate four unique noninteger related output frequencies with 0 ppm frequency
error, with respect to the reference, for any combination
of output frequencies. In addition, any combination of
output frequencies can be generated from a single
reference frequency without having to change the
crystal or reference clock frequency between
configurations.
Frequency configurations are fully programmable by
writing to device registers using the I2C interface. Any
combination of output frequencies ranging from 1 to
200 MHz can be configured on each of the device
outputs.
3.5. Configuring the Si5356
The Si5356 is a highly-flexible clock generator that is
entirely configurable through its I2C interface. The
device’s default configuration is stored in non-volatile
memory (NVM) as shown in Figure 4. The NVM is a
one-time programmable memory (OTP), which can
store a custom user configuration at power-up. This is a
useful feature for applications that need a clock present
at power-up (e.g., for providing a clock to a processor).

Figure 4. Si5356 Memory Configuration
During a power cycle or a power-on reset (POR), the
contents of the NVM are copied into random access
memory (RAM), which sets the device configuration that
will be used during operation. Any changes to the
device configuration after power-up are made by
reading and writing to registers in the RAM space
through the I2C interface. ClockBuilder Desktop (see
"3.1.1. ClockBuilder™ Desktop Software" on page 9)
can be used to easily configure register map files that
can be written into RAM (see “3.5.2. Creating a New
Configuration for RAM” for details). Alternatively, the
register map file can be created manually with the help
of the equations in AN565.
Two versions of the Si5356 are available. First, noncustomized Si5356 devices are available in which the
RAM can be configured in-circuit via I2C. These blank
Si5356 devices can also be field programmed using the
Si5338/56-PROG-EVB (see “3.5.4. Writing a Custom
Configuration to NVM”). Second, custom factoryprogrammed Si5356 devices are available that include
a user-specified startup frequency configuration
(example part number Si5356A-Axxxxx-GM).

3.5.1. Ordering a Custom NVM Configuration
3.5.3. Writing a Custom Configuration to RAM
The Si5356 is orderable with a factory-programmed
custom NVM configuration. This is the simplest way of
using the Si5356 since it generates the desired output
frequencies at power-up or after a power-on reset
(POR). This default configuration can be reconfigured in
RAM through the I2C interface after power-up (see
“3.5.2. Creating a New Configuration for RAM”).
Writing a new configuration (register map) to the RAM
consists of pausing the LOL state-machine, writing new
values to the IC accounting for the write-allowed mask
given in AN565, validating the input clock or crystal,
locking the PLL to the input with the new configuration,
restarting the LOL state-machine, and calibrating the
VCO for robust operation across temperature. The flow
chart in Figure 5 on page 13 enumerates the details:
The first step in ordering a custom device is generating
an NVM file which defines the input and output clock
frequencies and signal formats. This is easily done
using the NVMSave for Factory Programming... menu
option in ClockBuilder Desktop. (See "3.1.1.
ClockBuilder™ Desktop Software" on page 9.) This
Windows based software allows the user to generate an
NVM file, which is used by the factory to manufacture
custom parts. Each custom part is marked with a unique
part number identifying the specific configuration (e.g.,
Si5356A-A00100-GM).
Note: The write-allowed mask specifies which bits must be
read and modified before writing the entire register
byte (a.k.a. read-modify-write). “AN428: Jump Start: InSystem, Flash-Based Programming for Silicon Labs’
Timing Products” illustrates the procedure defined in
Section 3.5.2 with ANSI C code.
Consult your local sales representative for more details
on ordering a custom Si5356.
3.5.2. Creating a New Configuration for RAM
Any Si5356 device can be configured by writing to
registers in RAM through the I2C interface. A nonfactory programmed device must be configured in this
manner.
When creating a custom RAM configuration, use the
following procedure:
1. Create a device configuration (register map) using
ClockBuilder Desktop (v3.0 or later; see "3.1.1.
ClockBuilder™ Desktop Software" on page 9) or
manually using the equations in “AN565: Configuring
the Si5356A”.
a. Configure the frequency plan.
b. Configure the output driver format and supply
voltage.
c. Configure initial phase offset (if desired).
d. Configure spread spectrum (if desired).
2. Save the configuration using the Options > Save
Register Map File or Options > Save C code Header
File, or create the register contents by the
conversions listed in AN565.
At this point, the new configuration can be written to the
device RAM according to the instructions in “3.5.3.
Writing a Custom Configuration to RAM”.

3.5.4. Writing a Custom Configuration to NVM
An alternative to ordering an Si5356 with a custom NVM
configuration is to use the field programming kit
(Si5338/56-PROG-EVB) to write directly to the NVM of
a "blank" Si5356. Since NVM is an OTP memory, it can
only be written once. The default configuration can be
reconfigured by writing to RAM through the I2C interface
(see “3.5.2. Creating a New Configuration for RAM”).
3.6. Output Phase Adjustment
The Si5356 has a digitally-controlled phase adjustment
feature that allows the user to adjust the phase of each
output clock in relation to the other output clocks. The
phase of each output clock can be adjusted with an
error of <20 ps over a range of ±45 ns. This feature is
available on any clock output that does not have Spread
Spectrum enabled.
3.7. CMOS Output Drivers
The Si5356 has 4 banks of outputs with each bank
comprised of 2 clocks for a total of 8 CMOS outputs per
device. By default, each bank of CMOS output clocks
are in-phase. Alternatively, each output clock can be
inverted. This feature enables each output pair to
operate as a differential CMOS clock. Each of the
output banks can operate from a different VDDO supply
(1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V), simplifying usage in mixed supply
applications.
The CMOS output driver has a controlled impedance of
close to 50  which includes an internal 22  series
resistor. An external series resistor is not needed when
driving 50  traces. If higher impedance traces are used
then a series resistor may be added. A typical
configuration is shown in Figure 6.
3.8. Jitter Performance
The Si5356 provides consistently low jitter for any
combination of output frequencies. The device
leverages a low phase noise single PLL architecture
and Silicon Laboratories’ patented MultiSynth fractional
output divider technology to deliver excellent jitter
performance guaranteed across process, temperature
and voltage. The Si5356 provides superior performance
to traditional multi-PLL solutions which may suffer from
degraded jitter performance depending on frequency
plan and the number of active PLLs.
Rev. 1.3

Si5356A
3.9. Status Indicators
An open-drain interrupt pin (INTR) is available to
indicate a loss of signal (LOS) condition, a PLL loss of
lock (LOL) condition, or that the PLL is in the process of
acquiring lock (SYS_CAL). As shown in Figure 7, a
status register at address 218 is available to help
identify the exact event that caused the interrupt pin to
become active. A LOS condition occurs when there is
no clock input to the Si5356. The loss of lock algorithm
works by continuously monitoring the frequency
difference between the two inputs of the phase
frequency detector. When this frequency difference is
greater than about 1000 ppm, a loss of lock condition is
declared. Note that the VCO will track the input clock
frequency for up to approximately 25000 ppm, which
will keep the inputs to the phase frequency detector at
the same frequency until the PLL comes out of lock.
When a clock input is removed, the interrupt pin will
assert, and the clock outputs may drift up to 5%. When
the input clock is reapplied with an appropriate
frequency, the PLL will again lock.

3.10. I2C Interface
The Si5356 control interface is a 2-wire bus for
bidirectional communication. The bus consists of a
bidirectional serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock
input (SCL). The device operates as a slave device on
the 2-wire bus and is compatible with I2C specifications.
Both lines must be connected to the positive supply via
an external pull-up. Standard-Mode (100 kbps) and
Fast-Mode (400 kbps) operation and 7-bit addressing
are supported as specified in the I2C-Bus Specification
standard. To accommodate multiple Si5356 devices on
the same I2C bus, the Si5356 has pin 3 as I2C_LSB.
The complete 7-bit I2C bus address for the device is
70h or 71h depending upon the state of the I2C_LSB
pin. In binary, this is written as 111 000[I2C_LSB]. See
218

Figure 8 for the command format for both read and write
access.
Data is always sent MSB first. Table 5 includes the AC
and DC electrical parameters for the SCL and SDA I/
Os, respectively. The timing specifications and timing
diagram for the I2C bus can be found in the I2C-Bus
Specification standard. SDA timeout support is
supported for compatibility with SMBus interfaces.
The I2C interface is 3.3 V tolerant.
The I2C bus can be operated at a bus voltage of 1.71 to
3.63 V and should have a pullup resistor as
recommended by the I2C-Bus Specification. If the I2C
bus voltage is less than 2.25 V, register 27[7] must be
set to 1.

3.11. Spread Spectrum
To help reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI), the
Si5356A supports spread spectrum modulation. The
output clock frequencies can be modulated to spread
energy across a broader range of frequencies, lowering
system EMI. The Si5356A implements spread spectrum
using its patented MultiSynth technology to achieve
previously unattainable precision in both modulation
rate and spreading magnitude as shown in Figure 9.
Through I2C control, the Spread Spectrum can be
applied to any output clock, any clock frequency, and
any spread amount from ±0.1% to ±2.5% center spread
and –0.1% to –5% down spread .
down-spread register parameters. Consult AN565 for
details.
Note: If you currently use center spread on a revision A and
would like to migrate to a revision B device, you must
generate a new register map using either ClockBuilder
Desktop or the equations in AN565. Center spread
configurations for
Revisions A and B are not compatible.
The spreading rate is limited to 30 to 63 kHz.
The Spread Spectrum is generated digitally in the output
MultiSynths which means that the Spread Spectrum
parameters are virtually independent of process,
voltage, and temperature variations. Since the Spread
Spectrum is created in the output MultiSynths, through
I2C each output channel can have independent Spread
Spectrum parameters. Without the use of I2C (NVM
download only) the only supported Spread Spectrum
parameters are for PCI Express compliance composing
100 MHz clock, 31.5 kHz spreading frequency with the
choice of the spreading.
Rev A devices provide native support for both down and
center spread. Center spread is supported in rev B
devices by up-shifting the nominal frequency and using

3.12. Power Supply Considerations
The Si5356 has two core supply voltage pins (VDD) and
four clock output bank supply voltage pins (VDDOA–
VDDOD), enabling the device to be used in mixed supply
applications. The Si5356 does not require ferrite beads
for power supply filtering. The device has extensive on-
chip power supply regulation to minimize the impact of
power supply noise on output jitter. Figure 10 is a curve
of additive phase jitter with power supply noise. Note
that even when a significant amount of noise is applied
to the device power supply, additive phase jitter is still
very small.

4. Si5356 Registers
For many applications, the Si5356's register values are easily configured using ClockBuilder Desktop (see "3.1.1.
ClockBuilder™ Desktop Software" on page 9). However, for customers interested in using the Si5356 in operating
modes beyond the capabilities available with ClockBuilder, refer to “AN565: Configuring the Si5356A” for a detailed
description of the Si5356 registers and their usage. Also refer to “AN428: Jump Start: In-System, Flash-Based
