1. Any-Frequency Precision Clock Product Family Overview
Silicon Laboratories Any-Frequency Precision Clock products provide jitter attenuation and clock multiplication/
clock division for applications requiring sub 1 ps rms jitter performance. The device product family is based on
Silicon Laboratories' 3rd generation DSPLL technology, which provides any-frequency synthesis and jitter
attenuation in a highly integrated PLL solution that eliminates the need for discrete VCXO/VCSOs and loop filter
components. These devices are ideally suited for applications which require low jitter reference clocks, including
OTN (OTU-1, OTU-2, OTU-3, OTU-4), OC-48/STM-16, OC-192/STM-64, OC-768/STM-256, GbE, 10GbE, Fibre
Channel, 10GFC, synchronous Ethernet, wireless backhaul, wireless point-point infrastructure, broadcast video/
HDTV (HD SDI, 3G SDI), test and measurement, data acquisition systems, and FPGA/ASIC reference clocking.
Table 1 provides a product selector guide for the Silicon Laboratories Any-Frequency Precision Clocks. Three
product families are available. The Si5316, Si5319, Si5323, Si5324, Si5326, Si5366, and Si5368 are jitterattenuating clock multipliers that provide ultra-low jitter generation as low as 0.30 ps RMS. The devices vary
according to the number of clock inputs, number of clock outputs, and control method. The Si5316 is a fixedfrequency, pin controlled jitter attenuator that can be used in clock smoothing applications. The Si5323 and Si5366
are pin-controlled jitter-attenuating clock multipliers. The frequency plan for these pin-controlled devices is
selectable from frequency lookup tables and includes common frequency translations for SONET/SDH, ITU G.709
Forward Error Correction (FEC) applications (255/238, 255/237, 255/236, 238/255, 237/255, 236/255), Gigabit
Ethernet, 10G Ethernet, 1G/2G/4G/8G/10G Fibre Channel, ATM and broadcast video (Genlock). The Si5319,
Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, and Si5369 are microprocessor-controlled devices that can be controlled
via an I2C or SPI interface. These microprocessor-controlled devices accept clock inputs ranging from 2 kHz to
710 MHz and generate multiple independent, synchronous clock outputs ranging from 2 kHz to 945 MHz and
select frequencies to 1.4 GHz. Virtually any frequency translation combination across this operating range is
supported. Independent dividers are available for every input clock and output clock, so the Si5324, Si5326,
Si5327, Si5328, and Si5368 can accept input clocks at different frequencies and generate output clocks at different
frequencies. The Si5316, Si5319, Si5323, Si5326, Si5366, Si5368, and Si5369 support a digitally programmable
loop bandwidth that can range from 60 Hz to 8.4 kHz. An external (37–41 MHz, 55–61 MHz, and 109–125.5 MHz)
reference clock or a low-cost 114.285 MHz 3rd overtone crystal is required for these devices to enable ultra-low
jitter generation and jitter attenuation. (See "Appendix A—Narrowband References" on page 108.) The Si5324,
Si5327, and Si5369 are much lower bandwidth devices, providing a user-programmable loop bandwidth from 4 to
525 Hz. The Si5328 is an ultra-low-loop BW device that is intended for SyncE timing card applications (G.8262)
with loop BW values of from 0.05 to 6 Hz.
The Si5323, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5366, Si5368, and Si5369 support hitless switching between input
clocks in compliance with GR-253-CORE and GR-1244-CORE that greatly minimizes the propagation of phase
transients to the clock outputs during an input clock transition (<200 ps typ). Manual, automatic revertive and
automatic non-revertive input clock switching options are available. The devices monitor the input clocks for lossof-signal and provide a LOS alarm when missing pulses on any of the input clocks are detected. The devices
monitor the lock status of the PLL and provide a LOL alarm when the PLL is unlocked. The lock detect algorithm
works by continuously monitoring the phase of the selected input clock in relation to the phase of the feedback
clock. The Si5324, Si5326, Si5328, Si5366, Si5368, and Si5369 monitor the frequency of the input clocks with
respect to a reference frequency applied to an input clock or the XA/XB input, and generates a frequency offset
alarm (FOS) if the threshold is exceeded. This FOS feature is available for SONET/SDH applications. Both Stratum
3/3E and SONET Minimum Clock (SMC) FOS thresholds are supported.
The Si5319, Si5323, Si5324, Si5326, Si5328, Si5366, Si5368, and Si5369 provide a digital hold capability that
allows the device to continue generation of a stable output clock when the selected input reference is lost. During
digital hold, the DSPLL generates an output frequency based on a historical average that existed a fixed amount of
time before the error event occurred, eliminating the effects of phase and frequency transients that may occur
immediately preceding entry into digital hold.
The Si5322, Si5325, Si5365, and Si5367 are frequency flexible, low jitter clock multipliers that provide jitter
generation of 0.6 ps RMS without jitter attenuation. These devices provide low jitter integer clock multiplication or
fractional clock synthesis, but they are not as frequency-flexible as the Si5319/23/24/26/66/68/69. The devices
vary according to the number of clock inputs, number of clock outputs, and control method. The Si5322 and Si5365

tables.
A wide range of settings are available, but they are a subset of the frequency plans supported by the Si5323 and
Si5366 jitter-attenuating clock multipliers. The Si5325 and Si5367 are microprocessor-controlled clock multipliers
that can be controlled via an I2C or SPI interface.
These devices accept clock inputs ranging from 10 MHz to 710 MHz and generate multiple independent,
synchronous clock outputs ranging from 10 MHz to 945 MHz and select frequencies to 1.4 GHz. The Si5325 and
Si5367 support a subset of the frequency translations available in the Si5319, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5368, and
Si5369 jitter-attenuating clock multipliers. The Si5325 and Si5367 can accept input clocks at different frequencies
and generate output clocks at different frequencies. The Si5322, Si5325, Si5365, and Si5367 support a digitally
programmable loop bandwidth that ranges from 150 kHz to 1.3 MHz. No external components are required for
these devices. LOS and FOS monitoring is available for these devices, as described above.
The Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376 are quad DSPLL versions of the Si5324, Si5319, and Si5326, respectively. Each
of the four DSPLLs can operate at completely independent frequencies. The only resources that they share are a
common I2C bus and a common XA/XB jitter reference oscillator. These quad devices cannot use a crystal as their
reference source. Since they require a require a free standing reference oscillator, the XA/XB reference pins were
renamed to OSC_P and OSC_N. The Si5375 consists of four one-input and one-output DSPLLs. The Si5374
consists of four two-input and two-output DSPLLs with very low loop bandwidth. The Si5376 is similar to the Si5374
with the exception that it has higher loop BW values.
The Any-Frequency Precision Clocks have differential clock output(s) with programmable signal formats to support
LVPECL, LVDS, CML, and CMOS loads. If the CMOS signal format is selected, each differential output buffer
generates two in-phase CMOS clocks at the same frequency. For system-level debugging, a PLL bypass mode
drives the clock output directly from the selected input clock, bypassing the internal PLL.
Silicon Laboratories offers a PC-based software utility, DSPLLsim, that can be used to determine valid frequency
plans and loop bandwidth settings for the Any-Frequency Precision Clock product family. For the microprocessorcontrolled devices, DSPLLsim provides the optimum PLL divider settings for a given input frequency/clock
multiplication ratio combination that minimizes phase noise and power consumption. Two DSPLLsim configuration
software applications are available for the 1-PLL and 4-PLL devices, respectively. DSPLLsim can also be used to
simplify device selection and configuration. This utility can be downloaded from http://www.silabs.com/timing.
Other useful documentation, including device data sheets and programming files for the microprocessor-controlled
devices are available from this website.

3.15. Si5374/75/76 Compared to Si5324/19/26
In general, the Si5374 can be viewed as a quad version of the Si5324, and the Si5375 can be viewed as a quad
version of the Si5319, and the Si5376 can be viewed as a quad version of the Si5326. However, they are not
exactly the same. This is an overview of the differences:
1. The Si5374/75/76 cannot use a crystal as its OSC reference. It requires the use of a single external singleended or differential crystal oscillator.
2. The Si5374/75/76 only supports I2C as its serial port protocol and does not have SPI. No I2C address pins are
available on the Si5374/75/76.
3. The Si5374/75/76 does not provide separate INT_CK1B and CK2B pins to indicate when CKIN1 and CKIN2 do
not have valid clock inputs. Instead, the IRQ pin can be programmed to function as one pin, the other pin or
both.
4. Selection of the OSC frequency is done by a register (RATE_REG), not by using the RATE pins.
5. The Si5374/75/76 uses a different version of DSPLLsim: Si537xDSPLLsim.
6. The Si5374/75/76 does not support 3.3 V operation.

4. DSPLL (All Devices)
All members of the Any-Frequency Precision Clocks family incorporate a phase-locked loop (PLL) that utilizes
Silicon Laboratories' third generation DSPLL technology to eliminate jitter, noise, and the need for external VCXO
and loop filter components found in discrete PLL implementations. This is achieved by using a digital signal
processing (DSP) algorithm to replace the loop filter commonly found in discrete PLL designs. Because external
PLL components are not required, sensitivity to board-level noise sources is minimized. This digital technology
provides highly stable and consistent operation over process, temperature, and voltage variations.
A simplified block diagram of the DSPLL is shown in Figure 18. This algorithm processes the phase detector error
term and generates a digital frequency control word M to adjust the frequency of the digitally-controlled oscillator
(DCO). The narrowband configuration devices (Si5316, Si5319, Si5323, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5366, Si5368,
and Si5369) provide ultra-low jitter generation by using an external jitter reference clock and jitter attenuation. For
applications where basic frequency multiplication of low jitter clocks is all that is required, the wideband parts
(Si5322, Si5325, Si5365, and Si5367) are available.

4.1. Clock Multiplication
Fundamental to these parts is a clock multiplication circuit that is simplified in Figure 19. By having a large range of
dividers and multipliers, nearly any output frequency can be created from a fixed input frequency. For typical
telecommunications and data communications applications, the hardware control parts (Si5316, Si5322, Si5323,
Si5365, and Si5366) provide simple pin control.
The microprocessor controlled parts (Si5319, Si5324, Si5325, Si5326, Si5327, Si5367, Si5368, and Si5369)
provide a programmable range of clock multiplications. To assist users in finding valid divider settings for a
particular input frequency and clock multiplication ratio, Silicon Laboratories offers PC-based software (DSPLLsim)
that calculates these settings automatically. When multiple divider combinations produce the same output
frequency, the software recommends the divider settings yielding the recommended settings for phase noise
performance and power consumption.

4.2. PLL Performance
All members of the Any-Frequency Precision Clock family of devices provide extremely low jitter generation, a wellcontrolled jitter transfer function, and high jitter tolerance. For more information the loop bandwidth and its effect on
jitter attenuation, see "Appendix H—Jitter Attenuation and Loop BW" on page 157.
4.2.1. Jitter Generation
Jitter generation is defined as the amount of jitter produced at the output of the device with a jitter free input clock.
Generated jitter arises from sources within the VCO and other PLL components. Jitter generation is a function of
the PLL bandwidth setting. Higher loop bandwidth settings may result in lower jitter generation, but may result in
less attenuation of jitter that might be present on the input clock signal.
4.2.2. Jitter Transfer
Jitter transfer is defined as the ratio of output signal jitter to input signal jitter for a specified jitter frequency. The
jitter transfer characteristic determines the amount of input clock jitter that passes to the outputs. The DSPLL
technology used in the Any-Frequency Precision Clock devices provides tightly controlled jitter transfer curves
because the PLL gain parameters are determined largely by digital circuits which do not vary over supply voltage,
process, and temperature. In a system application, a well-controlled transfer curve minimizes the output clock jitter
variation from board to board and provides more consistent system level jitter performance.
The jitter transfer characteristic is a function of the loop bandwidth setting. Lower bandwidth settings result in more
jitter attenuation of the incoming clock, but may result in higher jitter generation. Section 1 Any-Frequency
Precision Clock Product Family Overview also includes specifications related to jitter bandwidth and peaking.
Figure 20 shows the jitter transfer curve mask.

4.2.3. Jitter Tolerance
Jitter tolerance is defined as the maximum peak-to-peak sinusoidal jitter that can be present on the incoming clock
before the DSPLL loses lock. The tolerance is a function of the jitter frequency, because tolerance improves for
lower input jitter frequency.
The jitter tolerance of the DSPLL is a function of the loop bandwidth setting. Figure 21 shows the general shape of
the jitter tolerance curve versus input jitter frequency. For jitter frequencies above the loop bandwidth, the tolerance
is a constant value Aj0. Beginning at the PLL bandwidth, the tolerance increases at a rate of 20 dB/decade for
lower input jitter frequencies.

The equation for the high frequency jitter tolerance can be expressed as a function of the PLL loop bandwidth (i.e.,
bandwidth):

For example, the jitter tolerance when fin = 155.52 MHz, fout = 622.08 MHz and the loop bandwidth (BW) is 100 Hz:

5. Pin Control Parts (Si5316, Si5322, Si5323, Si5365, Si5366)
These parts provide high-performance clock multiplication with simple pin control. Many of the control inputs are
three levels: High, Low, and Medium. High and Low are standard voltage levels determined by the supply voltage:
VDD and Ground. If the input pin is left floating, it is driven to nominally half of VDD. Effectively, this creates three
logic levels for these controls.
These parts span a range of applications and I/O capacity as shown in Table 3.

5.1. Clock Multiplication (Si5316, Si5322, Si5323, Si5365, Si5366)
By setting the tri-level FRQSEL[3:0] pins these devices provide a wide range of standard SONET and data
communications frequency scaling, including simple integer frequency multiplication to fractional settings required
for coding and decoding.
5.1.1. Clock Multiplication (Si5316)
The device accepts dual input clocks in the 19, 39, 78, 155, 311, or 622 MHz frequency range and generates a dejittered output clock at the same frequency. The frequency range is set by the FRQSEL [1:0] pins, as shown in
Table 4.

The Si5316 can accept a CKIN1 input at a different frequency than the CKIN2 input. The frequency of one input
clock can be 1x, 4x, or 32x the frequency of the other input clock. The output frequency is always equal to the lower
of the two clock inputs and is set via the FRQSEL [1:0] pins. The frequency applied at each clock input is divided
down by a pre-divider as shown in the Figure 1 on page 16. These pre-dividers must be set such that the two
resulting clock frequencies, f3_1 and f3_2 must be equal and are set by the FRQSEL [1:0] pins. Input divider
settings are controlled by the CK1DIV and CK2DIV pins, as shown in Table 5.

5.1.2. Clock Multiplication (Si5322, Si5323, Si5365, Si5366)
These parts provide flexible frequency plans for SONET, DATACOM, and interworking between the two (Table 7,
Table 8, and Table 9 respectively). The CKINn inputs must be the same frequency as specified in the tables. The
outputs are the same frequency; however, in the Si5365 and Si5366, CKOUT3 and CKOUT4 can be further divided
down by using the DIV34 [1:0] pins.
The following notes apply to Tables 7, 8, and 9:
1. All entries are available for the Si5323 and Si5366. Only those marked entries under the WB column are
available for the Si5322 and Si5365.
2. The listed output frequencies appear on CKOUTn. For the Si5365 and Si5366, sub-multiples are available on
CKOUT3 and CKOUT4 using the DIV34[1:0] control pins.
3. All ratios are exact, but the frequency values are rounded.
4. For bandwidth settings, f3 values, and frequency operating ranges, consult DSPLLsim.
5. For the Si5366 with CK_CONF = 1, CKIN3 and CKIN4 are the same frequency as FS_OUT.

5.1.4. Loop bandwidth (Si5316, Si5322, Si5323, Si5365, Si5366)
The loop bandwidth (BW) is digitally programmable using the BWSEL [1:0] input pins. The device operating
frequency should be determined prior to loop bandwidth configuration because the loop bandwidth is a function of
the phase detector input frequency and the PLL feedback divider setting. Use DSPLLsim to calculate these values
automatically. This utility is available for download from www.silabs.com/timing.
5.1.5. Jitter Tolerance (Si5316, Si5323, Si5366)
Refer to "4.2.3. Jitter Tolerance" on page 36.
5.1.6. Narrowband Performance (Si5316, Si5323, Si5366)
The DCO uses the reference clock on the XA/XB pins as its reference for jitter attenuation. The XA/XB pins support
either a crystal oscillator or an input buffer (single-ended or differential) so that an external oscillator can be used
as the reference source. The reference source is chosen with the RATE [1:0] pins. In both cases, there are wide
margins in the absolute frequency of the reference input because it is a fixed frequency reference and is only used
as a jitter reference and holdover reference (see "5.4. Digital Hold/VCO Freeze" on page 57).
However, care must be taken in certain areas for optimum performance. For details on this subject, refer to
"Appendix B—Frequency Plans and Typical Jitter Performance (Si5316, Si5319, Si5323, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327,
Si5366, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)" on page 112. For examples of connections to the XA/XB
pins, refer to "7.4. Crystal/Reference Clock Interfaces (Si5316, Si5319, Si5323, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328,
Si5366, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)" on page 102.
5.1.7. Input-to-Output Skew (Si5316, Si5323, Si5366)
The input-to-output skew for these devices is not controlled.
5.1.8. Wideband Performance (Si5322 and Si5365)
These devices operate as wideband clock multipliers without an external resonator or reference clock. They are
ideal for applications where the input clock is already low jitter and only simple clock multiplication is required. A
limited selection of clock multiplication factors is available (See Table 7, Table 8, and Table 9).
5.1.9. Lock Detect (Si5322 and Si5365)
A PLL loss of lock indicator is not available in these parts.
5.1.10. Input-to-Output Skew (Si5322 and Si5365)
The input-to-output skew for these devices is not controlled.
Rev. 1.2

Si53xx-RM
5.2. PLL Self-Calibration
An internal self-calibration (ICAL) is performed before operation to optimize loop parameters and jitter
performance. While the self-calibration is being performed, the DSPLL is being internally controlled by the selfcalibration state machine, and the LOL alarm will be active for narrowband parts.
Any of the following events will trigger a self-calibration:

Power-on-reset (POR)
 Release of the external reset pin RST (transition of RST from 0 to 1)
 Change in FRQSEL, FRQTBL, BWSEL, or RATE pins
 Internal DSPLL registers out-of-range, indicating the need to relock the DSPLL.
In any of the above cases, an internal self-calibration will be initiated if a valid input clock exists (no input alarm)
and is selected as the active clock at that time. For the Si5316, Si5323 and Si5366, the external crystal or
reference clock must also be present for the self-calibration to begin. If valid clocks are not present, the selfcalibration state machine will wait until they appear, at which time the calibration will start. All outputs are on during
the calibration process.
After a successful self-calibration has been performed with a valid input clock, no subsequent self-calibrations are
performed unless one of the above conditions are met. If the input clock is lost following self-calibration, the device
enters digital hold mode. When the input clock returns, the device relocks to the input clock without performing a
self-calibration. (Narrow band devices only).
5.2.1. Input Clock Stability during Internal Self-Calibration (Si5316, Si5322, Si5323, Si5365, Si5366)
An exit from reset must occur when the selected CKINn clock is stable in frequency with a frequency value that is
within the operating range that is reported by DSPLLsim. The other CKINs must also either be stable in frequency
or squelched during a reset.
5.2.2. Self-Calibration caused by Changes in Input Frequency (Si5316, Si5322, Si5323, Si5365, Si5366)
If the selected CKINn varies by 500 ppm or more in frequency since the last calibration, the device may initiate a
self-calibration.
5.2.3. Recommended Reset Guidelines (Si5316, Si5322, Si5323, Si5365, Si5366)
Follow the recommended RESET guidelines in Table 11 and Table 12 when reset should be applied to a device.

switching, and revertive switching). When switching between two clocks, LOL may temporarily go high if the two
clocks differ in frequency by more than 100 ppm.
5.3.1. Manual Clock Selection
Manual control of input clock selection is chosen via the CS[1:0] pins according to Table 13 and Table 14.

The manual input clock selection settings for the Si5365 and the Si5366 are shown in Table 14. The Si5366 has
two modes of operation (See Section “5.5. Frame Synchronization (Si5366)”). With CK_CONF = 0, any of the four
input clocks may be selected manually; however, when CK_CONF = 1 the inputs are paired, CKIN1 is paired with
CKIN3 and likewise for CKIN2 and CKIN4. Therefore, only two settings are available to select one of the two pairs.

Notes:
1. To avoid clock switching based on intermediate states during a CS state change, the CS input pins are
internally deglitched.
2. If the selected clock enters an alarm condition, the PLL enters digital hold mode.

5.3.2. Automatic Clock Selection (Si5322, Si5323, Si5365, Si5366)
The AUTOSEL input pin sets the input clock selection mode as shown in Table 15. Automatic switching is either
revertive or non-revertive. Setting AUTOSEL to M or H, changes the CSn_CAm pins to output pins that indicate the
state of the automatic clock selection (See Table 16 and Table 17). Digital hold is indicated by all CnB signals going
high after a valid ICAL.

Digital Hold
At power-on or reset, the valid CKINn with the highest priority (1 being the highest priority) is automatically
selected. If no valid CKINn is available, the device suppresses the output clocks and waits for a valid CKINn signal.
If the currently selected CKINn goes into an alarm state, the next valid CKINn in priority order is selected. If no valid
CKINn is available, the device enters Digital Hold.
Operation in revertive and non- revertive is different when a signal becomes valid:
Revertive (AUTOSEL = H):
The device constantly monitors all CKINn. If a CKINn with a higher priority than
the current active CKINn becomes valid, the active CKINn is changed to the
CKINn with the highest priority.
Non-revertive (AUTOSEL = M): The active clock does not change until there is an alarm on the active clock. The
device will then select the highest priority CKINn that is valid. Once in digital hold,
the device will switch to the first CKINn that becomes valid.
5.3.3. Hitless Switching with Phase Build-Out (Si5323, Si5366)
Silicon Laboratories switching technology performs “phase build-out” to minimize the propagation of phase
transients to the clock outputs during input clock switching. All switching between input clocks occurs within the
input multiplexor and phase detector circuitry. The phase detector circuitry continually monitors the phase
difference between each input clock and the DSPLL output clock, fOSC. The phase detector circuitry can lock to a
clock signal at a specified phase offset relative to fOSC so that the phase offset is maintained by the PLL circuitry.
At the time a clock switch occurs, the phase detector circuitry knows both the input-to-output phase relationship for
the original input clock and for the new input clock. The phase detector circuitry locks to the new input clock at the
new clock's phase offset so that the phase of the output clock is not disturbed. The phase difference between the
two input clocks is absorbed in the phase detector's offset value, rather than being propagated to the clock output.
The switching technology virtually eliminates the output clock phase transients traditionally associated with clock
rearrangement (input clock switching).

5.4. Digital Hold/VCO Freeze
All Any-Frequency Precision Clock devices feature a hold over or VCO freeze mode, whereby the DSPLL is locked
to a digital value.
5.4.1. Narrowband Digital Hold (Si5316, Si5323, Si5366)
If an LOS or FOS condition exists on the selected input clock, the device enters digital hold. In this mode, the
device provides a stable output frequency until the input clock returns and is validated. When the device enters
digital hold, the internal oscillator is initially held to its last frequency value. Next, the internal oscillator slowly
transitions to a historical average frequency value that was taken over a time window of 6,711 ms in size that
ended 26 ms before the device entered digital hold. This frequency value is taken from an internal memory location
that keeps a record of previous DSPLL frequency values. By using a historical average frequency, input clock
phase and frequency transients that may occur immediately preceding loss of clock or any event causing digital
hold do not affect the digital hold frequency. Also, noise related to input clock jitter or internal PLL jitter is
minimized.
If a highly stable reference, such as an oven-controlled crystal oscillator, is supplied at XA/XB, an extremely stable
digital hold can be achieved. If a crystal is supplied at the XA/XB port, the digital hold stability will be limited by the
stability of the crystal.
5.4.2. Recovery from Digital Hold (Si5316, Si5323, Si5366)
When the input clock signal returns, the device transitions from digital hold to the selected input clock. The device
performs hitless recovery from digital hold. The clock transition from digital hold to the returned input clock includes
“phase buildout” to absorb the phase difference between the digital hold clock phase and the input clock phase.
5.4.3. Wideband VCO Freeze (Si5322, Si5365)
If an LOS condition exists on the selected input clock, the device freezes the VCO. In this mode, the device
provides a stable output frequency until the input clock returns and is validated. When the device enters VCO
freeze, the internal oscillator is initially held to its last frequency value.
5.5. Frame Synchronization (Si5366)
FSYNC is used in applications that require a synchronizing pulse that has an exact number of periods of a highrate clock, Frame Synchronization is selected by setting CK_CONF = 1 and FRQTBL = L). In a typical frame
synchronization application, CKIN1 and CKIN2 are high-speed input clocks from primary and secondary clock
generation cards and CKIN3 and CKIN4 are their associated primary and secondary frame synchronization
signals. The device generates four output clocks and a frame sync output FS_OUT. CKIN3 and CKIN4 control the
phase of FS_OUT.
The frame sync inputs supplied to CKIN3 and CKIN4 must be 8 kHz. Since the frequency of FS_OUT is derived
from CKOUT2, CKOUT2 must be a standard SONET frequency (e.g. 19.44 MHz, 77.76 MHz). Table 7 lists the
input frequency/clock multiplication ratio combinations supporting an 8 kHz output on FS_OUT.
Rev. 1.2
57
Si53xx-RM
5.6. Output Phase Adjust (Si5323, Si5366)
Overall device skew (CKINn to CKOUT_n phase delay) is controllable via the INC and DEC input pins. A positive
pulse applied at the INC pin increases the device skew by 1/fOSC, one period of the DCO output clock. A pulse on
the DEC pin decreases the skew by the same amount. Since fOSC is close to 5 GHz, the resolution of the skew
control is approximately 200 ps. Using the INC and DEC pins, there is no limit to the range of skew adjustment that
can be made. Following a power-up or reset, the skew will revert to the reset value.
The INC pin function is not available for all frequency table selections. DSPLLsim reports this whenever it is used
to implement a frequency plan.
5.6.1. FSYNC Realignment (Si5366)
The FS_ALIGN pin controls the realignment of FS_OUT to the active CKIN3 or CKIN4 input. The currently active
frame sync input is determined by which input clock is currently being used by the PLL. For example, if CKIN1 is
being selected as the PLL input, CKIN3 is the currently-active frame sync input. If neither CKIN3 or CKIN4 are
currently active (digital hold), the realignment request is ignored. The active edge used for realignment is the
CKIN3 or CKIN4 rising edge.
FS_ALIGN operates in Level Sensitive mode. While FS_ALIGN is active, each active edge of the currently-active
frame sync input (CKIN3 or CKIN4) is used to control the NC5 output divider and therefore the FS_OUT phase.
Note that while the realignment control is active, it cannot be guaranteed that a fixed number of high-frequency
clock (CKOUT2) cycles exists between each FS_OUT cycle.
The resolution of the phase realignment is 1 clock cycle of CKOUT2. If the realignment control is not active, the
NC5 divider will continuously divide down its fCKOUT2 input. This guarantees a fixed number of high-frequency
clock (CKOUT2) cycles between each FS_OUT cycle.
At power-up or any time after the PLL has lost lock and relocked, the device automatically performs a realignment
of FS_OUT using the currently active sync input. After this, as long as the PLL remains in lock and a realignment is
not requested, FS_OUT will include a fixed number of high-speed clock cycles, even if input clock switches are
performed. If many clock switches are performed in phase build-out mode, it is possible that the input sync to
output sync phase relationship will shift due to the accumulated residual phase transients of the phase build-out
circuitry. If the sync alignment error exceeds the threshold in either the positive or negative direction, an alignment
alarm becomes active. If it is then desired to reestablish the desired input-to-output sync phase relationship, a
realignment can be performed. A realignment request may cause FS_OUT to instantaneously shift its output edge
location in order to align with the active input sync phase.
5.6.2. Including FSYNC Inputs in Clock Selection (Si5366)
The frame sync inputs, CKIN3 and CKIN4, are both monitored for loss-of-signal (LOS3_INT and LOS4_INT)
conditions. To include these LOS alarms in the input clock selection algorithm, set FS_SW = 1. The LOS3_INT is
logically ORed with LOS1_INT and LOS4_INT is ORed with LOS2_INT as inputs to the clock selection state
machine. If it is desired not to include these alarms in the clock selection algorithm, set FS_SW = 0. The FOS
alarms for CKIN3 and CKIN4 are ignored. See Table 24 on page 61.
5.6.3. FS_OUT Polarity and Pulse Width Control (Si5366)
Additional output controls are available for FS_OUT. FS_OUT is active high, and the pulse width is equal to one
period of the CKOUT2 output clock. For example, if CKOUT2 is 622.08 MHz, the FS_OUT pulse width will be 1/
622.08e6 = 1.61 ns.
5.6.4. Using FS_OUT as a Fifth Output Clock (Si5366)
In applications where the frame synchronization functionality is not needed, FS_OUT can be used as a fifth clock
output. In this case, no realignment requests should be made to the NC5 divider. (This is done by holding
FS_ALIGN to 0 and CK_CONF = 0).

5.6.5. Disabling FS_OUT (Si5366)
The FS_OUT maybe disabled via the DBLFS pin, see Table 20. The additional state (M) provided allows for
FS_OUT to drive a CMOS load while the other clock outputs use a different signal format as specified by the
SFOUT[1:0] pins.

5.7. Output Clock Drivers
The devices include a flexible output driver structure that can drive a variety of loads, including LVPECL, LVDS,
CML, and CMOS formats. The signal format is selected jointly for all outputs using the SFOUT [1:0] pins, which
modify the output common mode and differential signal swing. See the appropriate data sheet for output driver
specifications. The SFOUT [1:0] pins are three-level input pins, with the states designated as L (ground), M (VDD/
2), and H (VDD).
Table 21 shows the signal formats based on the supply voltage and the type of load being driven. For the CMOS
setting (SFOUT = LH), both output pins drive single-ended in-phase signals and should be externally shorted
together to obtain the drive strength specified in the data sheet.

The SFOUT [1:0] pins can also be used to disable the output. Disabling the output puts the CKOUT+ and CKOUT–
pins in a high-impedance state relative to VDD (common mode tri-state) while the two outputs remain connected to
each other through a 200  on-chip resistance (differential impedance of 200 ). The maximum amount of internal
circuitry is powered down, minimizing power consumption and noise generation. Changing SFOUT without a reset
causes the output to output skew to become random. When SFOUT = LH for CMOS, PLL bypass mode is not
supported.
5.7.1. LVPECL and CMOS TQFP Output Signal Format Restrictions at 3.3 V (Si5365, Si5366)
The LVPECL and CMOS output formats draw more current than either LVDS or CML. However, the allowed output
format pin settings are restricted so that the maximum power dissipation for the TQFP devices is limited when they
are operated at 3.3 V. When SFOUT[1:0] = MH or LH (for either LVPECL or CMOS), either DBL5 must be H or
DBL34 must be high.
Rev. 1.2

Si53xx-RM
5.8. PLL Bypass Mode
The device supports a PLL bypass mode in which the selected input clock is fed directly to all enabled output
buffers, bypassing the DSPLL. In PLL bypass mode, the input and output clocks will be at the same frequency. PLL
bypass mode is useful in a laboratory environment to measure system performance with and without the effects of
jitter attenuation provided by the DSPLL.
The DSBL2/BYPASS pin is used to select the PLL bypass mode according to Table 22.
Table 22. DSBL2/BYPASS Pin Settings

Internally, the bypass path is implemented with high-speed differential signaling for low jitter. Bypass mode does
not support CMOS clock output.
5.9. Alarms
Summary alarms are available to indicate the overall status of the input signals and frame alignment (Si5366 only).
Alarm outputs stay high until all the alarm conditions for that alarm output are cleared.
5.9.1. Loss-of-Signal Alarms (Si5316, Si5322, Si5323, Si5365, Si5366)
The device has loss-of-signal circuitry that continuously monitors CKINn for missing pulses. The LOS circuitry
generates an internal LOSn_INT output signal that is processed with other alarms to generate CnB.
An LOS condition on CKIN1 causes the internal LOS1_INT alarm to become active. Similarly, an LOS condition on
CKINn causes the LOSn_INT alarm to become active. Once a LOSn_INT alarm is asserted on one of the input
clocks, it remains asserted until that input clock is validated over a 100 ms time period. The time to clear
LOSn_INT after a valid input clock appears as listed in the appropriate data sheet. If another error condition on the
same input clock is detected during the validation time then the alarm remains asserted and the validation time
starts over.
5.9.1.1. Narrowband LOS Algorithm (Si5316, Si5323, Si5366)
The LOS circuitry divides down each input clock to produce an 8 kHz to 2 MHz signal. (For the Si5316, the output
of divider N3 (See Figure 1) is used.) The LOS circuitry over samples this divided down input clock using a 40 MHz
clock to search for extended periods of time without input clock transitions. If the LOS monitor detects twice the
normal number of samples without a clock edge, a LOSn_INT alarm is declared. The data sheet gives the
minimum and maximum amount of time for the LOS monitor to trigger.
5.9.1.2. Wideband LOS Algorithm (Si5322, Si5365)
Each input clock is divided down to produce a 78 kHz to 1.2 MHz signal before entering the LOS monitoring
circuitry. The same LOS algorithm as described in the above section is then used.
5.9.2. FOS Alarms (Si5365 and Si5366)
If FOS alarms are enabled (See Table 23), the internal frequency offset alarms (FOSn_INT) indicate if the input
clocks are within a specified frequency band relative to the frequency of CKIN2. The frequency offset monitoring
circuitry compares the frequency of the input clock(s) with CKIN2. If the frequency offset of an input clock exceeds
a preset frequency offset threshold, an FOS alarm (FOSn_INT) is declared for that clock input. Note that FOS
monitoring is not available on CKIN3 and CKIN4 if CK_CONF = 1. The device supports FOS hysteresis per GR1244-CORE, making the device less susceptible to FOS alarm chattering. A TCXO or OCXO reference clock must
be used in conjunction with either the SMC or Stratum 3/3E settings. Note that wander can cause false FOS
alarms.

5.9.3. FSYNC Align Alarm (Si5366 and CK_CONF = 1 and FRQTBL = L)
At power-up or any time after the PLL has lost lock and relocked, the device automatically performs a realignment
of FS_OUT using the currently active sync input. After this, as long as the PLL remains in lock and a realignment is
not requested, FS_OUT will include a fixed number of high-speed clock cycles, even if input clock switches are
performed. If many clock switches are performed, it is possible that the input sync to output sync phase relationship
will shift due to the accumulated residual phase transients of the phase build-out circuitry. The internal ALIGN_INT
signal is asserted when the accumulated phase errors exceeds two cycles of CKOUT2.
5.9.4. C1B and C2B Alarm Outputs (Si5316, Si5322, Si5323)
The alarm outputs (C1B and C2B) are determined directly by the LOS1_INT and LOS2_INT internal indicators
directly. That is C1B = LOS1 and C2B = LOS2.
5.9.5. C1B, C2B, C3B, and ALRMOUT Outputs (Si5365, Si5366)
The alarm outputs (C1B, C2B, C3B, ALRMOUT) provide a summary of various alarm conditions on the input clocks
depending on the setting of the FOS_CNTL and CK_CONF pins.
The following internal alarm indicators are used in determining the output alarms:

LOSn_INT: See section “5.9.1. Loss-of-Signal Alarms (Si5316, Si5322, Si5323, Si5365, Si5366)” for a
description of how LOSn_INT is determined
 FOSn_INT: See section “5.9.2. FOS Alarms (Si5365 and Si5366)”for a description of how FOSn_INT is
determined
 ALIGN_INT: See section “5.9.3. FSYNC Align Alarm (Si5366 and CK_CONF = 1 and FRQTBL = L)” for a
description of how ALIGN_INT is determined
Based on the above internal signals and the settings of the CK_CONF and FOS_CTL pins, the outputs C1B, C2B,
C3B, ALRMOUT are determined (See Table 24). For details, see "Appendix D—Alarm Structure" on page 137.

5.9.5.1. PLL Lock Detect (Si5316, Si5323, Si5366)
The PLL lock detection algorithm indicates the lock status on the LOL output pin. The algorithm works by
continuously monitoring the phase of the input clock in relation to the phase of the feedback clock. If the time
between two consecutive phase cycle slips is greater than the Retrigger Time, the PLL is in lock. The LOL output
has a guaranteed minimum pulse width as shown in the data sheet. The LOL pin is also held in the active state
during an internal PLL calibration.
The retrigger time is automatically set based on the PLL closed loop bandwidth (See Table 25).

5.10. Device Reset
Upon powerup, the device internally executes a power-on-reset (POR) which resets the internal device logic. The
pin RST can also be used to initiate a reset. The device stays in this state until a valid CKINn is present, when it
then performs a PLL Self-Calibration (See “5.2. PLL Self-Calibration”).
5.11. DSPLLsim Configuration Software

Si5328, Si5367, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)
The devices in this family provide a rich set of clock multiplication/clock division options, loop bandwidth selections,
output clock phase adjustment, and device control options.
6.1. Clock Multiplication
The input frequency, clock multiplication ratio, and output frequency are set via register settings. Because the
DSPLL dividers settings are directly programmable, a wide range of frequency translations is available. In addition,
a wider range of frequency translations is available in narrowband parts than wideband parts due to the lower
phase detector frequency range in narrowband parts. To assist users in finding valid divider settings for a particular
input frequency and clock multiplication ratio, Silicon Laboratories offers the DSPLLsim utility to calculate these
settings automatically. When multiple divider combinations produce the same output frequency, the software
recommends the divider settings that yield the best combination of phase noise performance and power
consumption.
6.1.1. Jitter Tolerance (Si5319, Si5324, Si5325, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and
Si5376)
See "4.2.3. Jitter Tolerance" on page 36.
6.1.2. Wideband Parts (Si5325, Si5367)
These devices operate as wideband clock multipliers without an external resonator or reference clock. This mode
may be desirable if the input clock is already low jitter and only simple clock multiplication is required. A limited
selection of clock multiplication factors is available in this mode. The input-to-output skew for wideband parts is not
controlled.
Refer to Figure 23. The selected input clock passes through the N3 input divider and is provided to the DSPLL. The
input-to-output clock multiplication ratio is defined as follows:
fOUT = fIN x N2/(N1 x N3)

Si53xx-RM
Because there is only one DCO and all of the outputs must be frequencies that are integer divisions of the DCO
frequency, there are restrictions on the ratio of one output frequency to another output frequency. That is, there is
considerable freedom in the ratio between the input frequency and the first output frequency; but once the first
output frequency is chosen, there are restrictions on subsequent output frequencies. These restrictions are made
tighter by the fact that the N1_HS divider is shared among all of the outputs. DSPLLsim should be used to
determine if two different simultaneous outputs are compatible with one another.
The same issue exists for inputs of different frequencies: both inputs, after having been divided by their respective
N3 dividers, must result in the same f3 frequency because the phase/frequency detector can operate at only one
frequency at one time.
6.1.2.1. Loop Bandwidth (Si5325, Si5367)
The loop bandwidth (BW) is digitally programmable using the BWSEL_REG[3:0] register bits. The device operating
frequency should be determined prior to loop bandwidth configuration because the loop bandwidth is a function of
the phase detector input frequency and the PLL feedback divider. See DSPLLsim for BWSEL_REG settings and
associated bandwidth.

Si5376)
The DCO uses the reference clock on the XA/XB pins (OSC_P and OSC_N for the Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376) as
its reference for jitter attenuation. The XA/XB pins support either a crystal oscillator or an input buffer (single-ended
or differential) so that an external oscillator can become the reference source. In both cases, there are wide
margins in the absolute frequency of the reference input because it is a fixed frequency and is used only as a jitter
reference and holdover reference (see "6.6. Digital Hold" on page 75). See " Appendix A—Narrowband
References" on page 108 for more details. The Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376 must be used with an external crystal
oscillator and cannot use crystals. Because of the wander requirements of SynE and G.8262, the Si5328 must be
used with a suitable TCXO as its XAXB reference.
Care must be exercised in certain areas for optimum performance. For details on this subject, refer to "Appendix
B—Frequency Plans and Typical Jitter Performance (Si5316, Si5319, Si5323, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5366,

Refer to Figure 24 Narrowband PLL Divider Settings (Si5319, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5368, Si5374, Si5375,
Si5376), a simplified block diagram of the device and Table 26 and Table 27 for frequency and divider limits. The
PLL dividers and their associated ranges are listed in the diagram. Each PLL divider setting is programmed by
writing to device registers. There are additional restrictions on the range of the input frequency fIN, the DSPLL
phase detector clock rate f3, and the DSPLL output clock fOSC.
The selected input clock passes through the N3 input divider and is provided to the DSPLL. In addition, the
external crystal or reference clock provides a reference frequency to the DSPLL. The DSPLL output frequency,
fOSC, is divided down by each output divider to generate the clock output frequencies. The input-to-output clock
multiplication ratio is defined as follows:
fOUT = fIN x N2/(N1 x N3)
where:
N1 = output divider
N2 = feedback divider
N3 = input divider

The output divider, NC1, is the product of a high-speed divider (N1_HS) and a low-speed divider (N1_LS).
Similarly, the feedback divider N2 is the product of a high-speed divider N2_HS and a low-speed divider N2_LS.
When multiple combinations of high-speed and low-speed divider values are available to produce the desired
overall result, selecting the largest possible high-speed divider value will produce lower power consumption. With
the fOSC and N1 ranges given above, any output frequency can be achieved from 2 kHz to 945 MHz where NC1
ranges from (4 x 220) to 6. For NC1 = 5, the output frequency range 970 MHz to 1.134 GHz can be obtained. For
NC1 = 4, the output frequency range from 1.2125 to 1.4175 GHz is available.
Because there is only one DCO and all of the outputs must be frequencies that are integer divisions of the DCO
frequency, there are restrictions on the ratio of one output frequency to another output frequency. That is, there is
considerable freedom in the ratio between the input frequency and the first output frequency; but once the first
output frequency is chosen, there are restrictions on subsequent output frequencies. These restrictions are caused
by the fact that the N1_HS divider is shared among all of the outputs. DSPLLsim should be used to determine if two
different simultaneous outputs are compatible with one another.
The same issue exists for inputs of different frequency: both inputs, after having been divided by their respective
N3 dividers, must result in the same f3 frequency because the phase/frequency detector can operate at only one
frequency at one time.
6.1.4. Loop Bandwidth (Si5319, Si5326, Si5368, Si5375, and Si5376)
The device functions as a jitter attenuator with digitally programmable loop bandwidth (BW). The loop bandwidth
settings range from 60 Hz to 8.4 kHz and are set using the BWSEL_REG[3:0] register bits. The device operating
frequency should be determined prior to loop bandwidth configuration because the loop bandwidth is a function of
the phase detector input frequency and the PLL feedback divider. See DSPLLsim for a table of BWSEL_REG and
associated loop bandwidth settings. For more information the loop BW and its effect on jitter attenuation, see
"Appendix H—Jitter Attenuation and Loop BW" on page 157.
6.1.4.1. Low Loop Bandwidth (Si5324, Si5327, Si5369, Si5374)
The loop BW of the Si5324, Si5327, Si5369, and Si5374 is significantly lower than the BW of the Si5326. The
available Si5324/27/69/74 loop bandwidth settings and their register control values for a given frequency plan are
listed by DSPLLsim (Revision 4.8 or higher) or in Si537xDSPLLsim. Compared to the Si5326, the BW Si5324/27/
69/74 settings are approximately 16 times lower, which means that the Si5324/27/69/74 loop bandwidth ranges
from about 4 to 525 Hz.
6.1.4.2. Ultra Low Loop Bandwidth (Si5328)
To provide the wander attenuation that is required for a SyncE G.8262-compatible timing card, the loop BW of the
Si5328 can be programmed from 0.05 to 6 Hz. The loop BW values that are available are reported by DSPLLsim
(Revision 4.8 or higher).
6.1.5. Lock Detect (Si5319, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)
The device has a PLL lock detection algorithm that indicates the lock status on the LOL output pin and the
LOL_INT read-only register bit. See Section “6.11.8. LOL (Si5319, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368,
Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)” for a detailed description of the LOL algorithm.
6.2. PLL Self-Calibration
The device performs an internal self-calibration before operation to optimize loop parameters and jitter
performance. While the self-calibration is being performed, the DCO is being internally controlled by the selfcalibration state machine, and the LOL alarm will be active. The output clocks can either be active or disabled
depending on the SQ_ICAL bit setting. The self-calibration time tLOCKMP is given in the data sheet. The procedure
for initiating the internal self-calibration is described below.
66
Rev. 1.2
Si53xx-RM
6.2.1. Initiating Internal Self-Calibration
Any of the following events will trigger an automatic self-calibration:

Internal DCO registers out-of-range, indicating the need to relock the DCO
Setting the ICAL register bit to 1
In any of the above cases, an internal self-calibration will be initiated if a valid input clock exists (no input alarm)
and is selected as the active clock at that time. The external crystal or reference clock must also be present for the
self-calibration to begin (LOSX_INT = 0 [narrowband only]).

When self-calibration is initiated the device generates an output clock if the SQ_ICAL bit is set to 0. The output
clock will appear when the device begins self-calibration. The frequency of the output clocks will change by as
much as ±20% during the ICAL process. If SQ_ICAL = 1, the output clocks are disabled during self-calibration and
will appear after the self-calibration routine is completed. The SQ_ICAL bit is self-clearing after a successful ICAL.
After a successful self-calibration has been performed with a valid input clock, it is not necessary to reinitiate a selfcalibration for subsequent losses of input clock. If the input clock is lost following self-calibration, the device enters
digital hold mode. When the input clock returns, the device relocks to the input clock without performing a selfcalibration.
After power-up and writing of dividers or PLL registers, the user must set ICAL = 1 to initiate a self-calibration. LOL
will go low when self calibration is complete. Depending on the selected value of the loop bandwidth, it may take a
few seconds more for the output frequency and phase to completely settle.
It is recommended that a software reset precede all ICALs and their associated register writes by setting
RST_REG (Register 136.7).
6.2.1.1. PLL Self-Calibration (Si5324, Si5327, Si5328, Si5369, Si5374)
Due to the low loop bandwidth of the Si5324, Si5327, Si5328, Si5369, and Si5374, the lock time of the Si5324/27/
69/75 can be longer than the lock time of the Si5326. As a method of reducing the lock time, the FAST_LOCK
register bit can be set to improve lock times. As the Si5324/27/28/69/74 data sheets indicate, FAST_LOCK is the
LSB of register 137. When FAST_LOCK is high, the lock time decreases. Because the Si5324/27/28/69/74 is
initialized with FAST_LOCK low, it must be written before ICAL. Typical Si5324/69/74 lock time (as defined from the
start of ICAL until LOL goes low) with FASTLOCK set is from one to five seconds. To reduce acquisition settling
times, it is recommended that a value of 001 be written to LOCKT (the three LSBs of register 19).
6.2.2. Input Clock Stability during Internal Self-Calibration
An ICAL must occur when the selected active CKINn clock is stable in frequency and with a frequency value that is
within the operating range that is reported by DSPLLsim. The other CKINs must be stable in frequency (< 100 ppm
from nominal) or squelched during an ICAL.
6.2.3. Self-Calibration Caused by Changes in Input Frequency
If the selected CKINn varies by 500 ppm or more in frequency since the last calibration, the device may initiate a
self-calibration.

The input-to-output skew is not controlled. External circuitry is required to control the input-to-output skew. Contact

Notes:
1. Case 1 should be selected when an output clock is not desired until the part has been initialized after power-up, but is
desired all of the time after initialization.

outputs when the outputs are at the correct output frequency.
3. Case 3 should be selected whenever a clock output is always desired.

6.3. Input Clock Configurations (Si5367 and Si5368)
The device supports two input clock configurations based on CK_CONFIG_REG. See "5.5. Frame Synchronization
(Si5366)" on page 57 for additional details.
6.4. Input Clock Control
This section describes the clock selection capabilities (manual input selection, automatic input selection, hitless
switching, and revertive switching). The Si5319, Si5327, and Si5375 support only pin-controlled manual clock
selection. Figure 25 and Figure 26 provide top level overviews of the clock selection logic, though they do not
cover wideband or frame sync applications. Register values are indicated by underscored italics. Note that, when
switching between two clocks, LOL may temporarily go high if the clocks differ in frequency by more than 100 ppm.

The AUTOSEL_REG[1:0] register bits sets the input clock selection mode as shown in Table 31. Automatic

6.4.2.1. Detailed Automatic Clock Selection Description (Si5324, Si5325, Si5326, Si5328, Si5374, and
Si5376)
Automatic switching is either revertive or non-revertive. The default prioritization of clock inputs when the device is
configured for automatic switching operation is CKIN1, followed by CKIN2, and finally, digital hold mode. The
inverse input clock priority arrangement is available through the CK_PRIOR bits, as shown in the Si5325, Si5326,
Si5374, and Si5376.
For the default priority arrangement, automatic switching mode selects CKIN1 at powerup, reset, or when in
revertive mode with no alarms present on CKIN1. If an alarm condition occurs on CKIN1 and there are no active
alarms on CKIN2, then the device switches to CKIN2. If both CKIN1 and CKIN2 are alarmed, then the device
enters digital hold mode. If automatic mode is selected and the frequency offset alarms (FOS1_INT and
FOS2_INT) are disabled, automatic switching is not initiated in response to FOS alarms. The loss-of-signal alarms
(LOS1_INT and LOS2_INT) are always used in making automatic clock selection choices.
In non-revertive mode, once CKIN2 is selected, CKIN2 selection remains as long as it is valid even if alarms are
cleared on CKIN1.
Rev. 1.2

Si53xx-RM
6.4.2.2. Detailed Automatic Clock Selection Description (Si5367, Si5368, Si5369)
The prioritization of clock inputs for automatic switching is shown in Table 32. For example, if
CK_CONFIG_REG = 0 and the desired clock priority order is CKIN4, CKIN3, CKIN2, and then CKIN1 as the
lowest priority clock, the user should set CK_PRIOR1[1:0] = 11, CK_PRIOR2[1:0] = 10, CK_PRIOR3[1:0] = 01, and
CK_PRIOR4[1:0] = 00.

If CK_CONFIG_REG = 1 and the desired clock priority is CKIN1/CKIN3 and then CKIN2/CKIN4, the user should
set CK_PRIOR1[1:0] = 00 and CK_PRIOR2[1:0] = 01 (CK_PRIOR3[1:0] and CK_PRIOR4[1:0] are ignored in this
case).
The following discussion describes the clock selection algorithm for the case of four possible input clocks
(CK_CONFIG_REG = 0) in the default priority arrangement (priority order CKIN1, CKIN2, CKIN3, CKIN4).
Automatic switching mode selects CKIN1 at powerup, reset, or when in revertive mode with no alarms present on
CKIN1. If an alarm condition occurs on CKIN1 and there are no active alarms on CKIN2, the device switches to
CKIN2. If both CKIN1 and CKIN2 are alarmed and there is no alarm on CKIN3, the device switches to CKIN3. If
CKIN1, CKIN2, and CKIN3 are alarmed and there is no alarm on CKIN4, the device switches to CKIN4. If alarms
exist on CKIN1, CKIN2, CKIN3, and CKIN4, the device enters digital hold mode. If automatic mode is selected and
the frequency offset alarms (FOS1_INT, FOS2_INT, FOS3_INT, FOS4_INT) are disabled, automatic switching is
not initiated in response to FOS alarms. The loss-of-signal alarms (LOS1_INT, LOS2_INT, LOS3_INT, LOS4_INT)
are always used in making automatic clock selection choices. In non-revertive mode, once CKIN2 is selected,
CKIN2 selection remains as long as it is valid even if alarms are cleared on CKIN1.
6.4.3. Hitless Switching with Phase Build-Out (Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, and
Si5376)
Silicon Laboratories switching technology performs phase build-out, which maintains the phase of the output when
the input clock is switched. This minimizes the propagation of phase transients to the clock outputs during input
clock switching. All switching between input clocks occurs within the input multiplexer and phase detector circuitry.
The phase detector circuitry continually monitors the phase difference between each input clock and the DSPLL
output clock, fOSC. The phase detector circuitry can lock to a clock signal at a specified phase offset relative to fOSC
so that the phase offset is maintained by the PLL circuitry.
At the time a clock switch occurs, the phase detector circuitry knows both the input-to-output phase relationship for
the original input clock and for the new input clock. The phase detector circuitry locks to the new input clock at the
new clock's phase offset so that the phase of the output clock is not disturbed. The phase difference between the
two input clocks is absorbed in the phase detector's offset value, rather than being propagated to the clock output.
The switching technology virtually eliminates the output clock phase transients traditionally associated with clock
rearrangement (input clock switching).
Note that hitless switching between input clocks applies only when the input clock validation time is
VALTIME[1:0] = 01 or higher.

logic, when in Free Run mode operation, all such logic will be driven by the XA/XB oscillator, not the CKIN2 pins.
For example, when in Free Run mode, the CK2B pin will reflect the status of the XA/XB oscillator and not the status
of the CKIN2 pins.

6.6. Digital Hold
All Any-Frequency Precision Clock devices feature a holdover mode, whereby the DSPLL is locked to a digital
value.
6.6.1. Narrowband Digital Hold (Si5316, Si5324, Si5326, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5376)
After the part's initial self-calibration (ICAL), when no valid input clock is available, the device enters digital hold.
Referring to the logical diagram in "Appendix D—Alarm Structure" on page 137, lack of clock availability is defined
by following the boolean equation for the Si5324, Si5326, Si5374, and Si5376:
(LOS1_INT OR FOS1_INT) AND (LOS2_INT OR FOS2_INT) = enter digital hold
The equivalent Boolean equation for the Si5327 is as follows:
LOS1 and LOS2 = enter digital hold
The equivalent boolean equation for the Si5367, Si5368, and Si5369 is as follows:
(LOS1_INT OR FOS1_INT) AND (LOS2_INT OR FOS2_INT) AND
(LOS3_INT OR FOS3_INT) AND (LOS4_INT OR FOS4_INT) = enter digital hold
6.6.1.1. Digital Hold Detailed Description (Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, and
Si5376)
In this mode, the device provides a stable output frequency until the input clock returns and is validated. Upon
entering digital hold, the internal DCO is initially held to its last frequency value, M (See Figure 28). Next, the DCO
slowly transitions to a historical average frequency value supplied to the DSPLL, MHIST, as shown in Figure 28.
Values of M starting from time t = –(HIST_DEL + HIST_AVG) and ending at t = –HIST_DEL are averaged to
compute MHIST. This historical average frequency value is taken from an internal memory location that keeps a
record of previous M values supplied to the DCO. By using a historical average frequency, input clock phase and
frequency transients that may occur immediately preceding digital hold do not affect the digital hold frequency.
Also, noise related to input clock jitter or internal PLL jitter is minimized.

used to determine if the information in HIST_AVG is valid and the device can enter SONET/SDH compliant digital
hold. If DIGHOLDVALID is not active, the part will enter VCO freeze instead of digital hold.

If a highly stable reference, such as an oven-controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO) is supplied at XA/XB, an
extremely stable digital hold can be achieved. If a crystal is supplied at the XA/XB port, the digital hold stability will
be limited by the stability of the crystal.

6.6.2. History Settings for Low Bandwidth Devices (Si5324, Si5327, Si5328, Si5369, Si5374)
Because of the extraordinarily low loop bandwidth of the Si5324, Si5369 and Si5374, it is recommended that the
values for both history registers be increased for longer histories.
6.6.3. Recovery from Digital Hold (Si5319, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, and
Si5376)
When the input clock signal returns, the device transitions from digital hold to the selected input clock. The device
performs hitless recovery from digital hold. The clock transition from digital hold to the returned input clock includes
“phase buildout” to absorb the phase difference between the digital hold clock phase and the input clock phase.
6.6.4. VCO Freeze (Si5319, Si5325, Si5367, Si5375)
If an LOS or FOS condition exists on the selected input clock, the device enters VCO freeze. In this mode, the
device provides a stable output frequency until the input clock returns and is validated. When the device enters
digital hold, the internal oscillator is initially held to the frequency value at roughly one second prior to the leading
edge of the alarm condition. VCO freeze is not compliant with SONET/SDH MTIE requirements; applications
requiring SONET/SDH MTIE requirements should use the Si5324, Si5326, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374 or Si5376.
Unlike the Si5325 and Si5367, the Si5319’s VCO freeze is controlled by the XA/XB reference (which is typically a
crystal) resulting in greater stability. For the Si5319, Si5327, and Si5375, VCO freeze is similar to the Digital Hold
function of the Si5326, Si5368, and Si5369 except that the HIST_AVG and HIST_DEL registers do not exist.

6.7. Output Phase Adjust (Si5326, Si5368)
The device has a highly accurate, digitally controlled device skew capability. For more information on Output Phase
Adjustments, see both DSPLLsim and the respective data sheets. Both can be downloaded by going to
www.silabs.com/timing and clicking on “Documentation” at the bottom of the page.
6.7.1. Coarse Skew Control (Si5326, Si5368)
With the INCDEC_PIN register bit set to 0 (pin control off), overall device skew is controlled via the CLAT[7:0]
register bits. This skew control has a resolution of 1/fOSC, approximately 200 ps, and a range from –25.6 to
25.4 ns. Following a powerup or reset (RST pin or RST_REG register bit), the skew will revert to the reset value.
Any further changes made in the skew register will be read and compared to the previously held value. The
difference will be calculated and applied to the clock outputs. All skew changes are made in a glitch-free fashion.
When a phase adjustment is in progress, any new CLAT[7:0] values are ignored until the update is complete. The
CLATPROG register bit is set to 1 during a coarse skew adjustment. The time for an adjustment to complete is
dependent on bandwidth and the delta value in CLAT. To verify a written value into CLAT, the CLAT register should
be read after the register is written. The time that it takes for the effects of a CLAT change to complete is
proportional to the size of the change, at 83 msec for every unit change, assuming the lowest available loop
bandwidth was selected. For example, if CLAT is zero and has the value 100 written to it, the changes will
complete in
100 x 83 msec = 8.3 sec.
If it is necessary to set the high-speed output clock divider N1_HS to divide-by-4 in order to achieve the desired
overall multiplication ratio and output frequency, only phase increments are allowed and negative settings in the
CLAT register or attempts to decrement the phase via writes to the CLAT register will be ignored. Because of this
restriction, when there is a choice between using N1_HS = 4 and another N1_HS value that can produce the
desired multiplication ratio, the other N1_HS value should be selected. This restriction also applies when using the
INC pin.
With the INCDEC_PIN register bit set to 1 (pin control on), the INC and DEC pins function the same as they do for
pin controlled parts. See "5.6. Output Phase Adjust (Si5323, Si5366)" on page 58.
6.7.1.1. Unlimited Coarse Skew Adjustment (Si5326, Si5368)
Using the following procedure, the CLAT register can be used to adjust the device clock output phase to an
arbitrarily large value that is not limited by the size of the CLAT register:
1. Write a phase adjustment value to the CLAT register (Register 16). The DSPLLsim configuration software
provides the size of a single step.
2. Wait until CLATPROGRESS = 0 (register 130, bit 7), which indicates that the adjustment is complete (Maximum
time for adjustment: 20 seconds for the Si5326 or Si5368).
3. Set INCDEC_PIN = 1 (Register 21, bit 7).
4. Write 0 to CLAT register (Register 16).
5. Wait until CLATPROGRESS = 0.
6. Set INCDEC_PIN = 0.
7. Repeat the above process as many times as desired.
Steps 3-6 will clear the CLAT register without changing the output phase. This allows for unlimited output clock
phase adjustment using the CLAT register and repeating steps 1–3 as many times as needed.
Note: The INC and DEC pins must stay low during this process.
6.7.2. Fine Skew Control (Si5326, Si5368)
An additional fine adjustment of the overall device skew can be used in conjunction with the INC and DEC pins or
the CLAT[7:0] register bits to provide finer resolution output phase adjustments. Fine phase adjustment is available
using the FLAT[14:0] bits. The nominal range and resolution of the FLAT[14:0] skew adjustment word are:
Range FLAT = ±110 ps
Resolution FLAT = 9 ps
78
Rev. 1.2
Si53xx-RM
Before writing a new FLAT[14:0] value, the FLAT_VALID bit must be set to 0 to hold the existing FLAT[14:0] value
while the new value is being written. Once the new value is written, set FLAT_VALID = 1 to enable its use.
To verify a written value into FLAT, the FLAT register should be read after the register is written.
Because the FLAT resolution varies with the frequency plan and selected bandwidth, DSPLLsim reports the FLAT
resolution each time it creates a new frequency plan.
6.7.2.1. Output Phase Adjust (Si5324, Si5327, Si5328, Si5369, Si5374)
Because of its very low loop bandwidth, the output phase of the Si5324, Si5327, Si5328, Si5369, and Si5374 are
not adjustable. This means that the Si5324, Si5327, Si5328, Si5369, and Si5374 do not have any INC or DEC pins
and that they do not have CLAT or FLAT registers.
6.7.3. Independent Skew (Si5324, Si5326, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, and Si5376)
The phase of each clock output may be adjusted in relation to the phase of the other clock outputs, respectively.
This feature is available when CK_CONFIG_REG = 0. The resolution of the phase adjustment is equal to [NI HS/
FVCO]. Since FVCO is approximately 5 GHz and N1_HS = (4, 5, 6, …, 11), the resolution varies from approximately
800 ps to 2.2 ns depending on the PLL divider settings. Silicon Laboratories' PC-based configuration software
(DSPLLsim) provides PLL divider settings for each frequency translation, if applicable. If more than one set of PLL
divider settings is available, selecting the combination with the lowest N1_HS value provides the finest resolution
for output clock phase offset control. The INDEPENDENTSKEWn[7:0] (n = 1 to 5) register bits control the phase of
the device output clocks. By programming a different phase offset for each output clock, output-to-output delays
can easily be set.
6.7.4. Output-to-output Skew (Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, and Si5376)
The output-to-output skew is guaranteed to be preserved only if the following two register bits are both high:
Register Bit:
Location
CKOUT_ALWAYS_ON
addr 0, bit 5
SQICAL
addr 3, bit 4
In addition, if SFOUT is changed, the output-to-output skew may be disturbed until after a successful ICAL.
Note: CKOUT5 phase is random unless it is used for Frame Sync (See section 6.8).
6.7.5. Input-to-Output Skew (All Devices)
The input-to-output skew for these devices is not controlled.
6.8. Frame Synchronization Realignment (Si5368 and CK_CONFIG_REG = 1)
Frame Synchronization Realignment is selected by setting CK_CONFIG_REG = 1. In a typical frame
synchronization application, CKIN1 and CKIN2 are high-speed input clocks from primary and secondary clock
generation cards and CKIN3 and CKIN4 are their associated primary and secondary frame synchronization
signals. The device generates four output clocks and a frame sync output FS_OUT. CKIN3 and CKIN4 control the
phase of FS_OUT. When CK_CONFIG_REG = 1, the Si5368 can lock onto only CKIN1 or CKIN2. CKIN3 and
CKIN4 are used only for purposes of frame synchronization.
The inputs supplied to CKIN3 and CKIN4 can range from 2 to 512 kHz. So that two different frame sync input
frequencies can be accommodated, CKIN3 and CKIN4 each have their own input dividers, as shown in Figure 30.
The CKIN3 and CKIN4 frequencies are set by the CKIN3RATE[2:0] and CKIN4RATE[2:0] register bits, as shown in
Table 35. The frequency of FS_OUT can range from 2 kHz to 710 MHz and is set using the NC5_LS divider
setting. FS_OUT must divide evenly into CKOUT2. For example, if CKOUT2 is 156.25 MHz, then 8 kHz would not
be an acceptable frame rate because 156.25 MHz/8 kHz = 19,531.25, which is not an integer. However, 2 kHz
would be an acceptable frame rate because 156.25 MHz/2 kHz = 78,125.

The NC5_LS divider uses CKOUT2 as its clock input to derive FS_OUT. The limits for the NC5_LS divider are
NC5_LS = [1, 2, 4, 6, …, 219]
fCKOUT2 < 710 MHz
Note that when in frame synchronization realignment mode, writes to NC5_LS are controlled by FPW_VALID. See
section “6.8.4. FS_OUT Polarity and Pulse Width Control (Si5368)”.

6.8.1. FSYNC Realignment (Si5368)
The FSYNC_ALIGN_PIN bit determines if the realignment will be pin-controlled via the FS_ALIGN pin or registercontrolled via the FSYNC_ALIGN_REG register bit. The active CKIN3 or CKIN4 edge to be used is controlled via
the FSYNC_POL register bit.
In either FSYNC alignment control mode, the resolution of the phase realignment is 1 clock cycle of CKOUT2. If
the realignment control is not active, the NC5 divider will continuously divide down its fCKOUT2 input. This
guarantees a fixed number of high-frequency clock (CKOUT2) cycles between each FS_OUT cycle.
At power-up, the device automatically performs a realignment of FS_OUT using the currently active sync input.
After this, as long as the PLL remains in lock and a realignment is not requested, FS_OUT will include a fixed
number of high-speed clock cycles, even if input clock switches are performed. If many clock switches are
performed in phase build-out mode, it is possible that the input sync to output sync phase relationship will shift due
to the accumulated residual phase transients of the phase build-out circuitry. The ALIGN_ERR[8:0] status register
reports the deviation of the input-to-output sync phase skew from the desired FSYNC_SKEW[16:0] value in units of
fCKOUT2 periods. A programmable threshold to trigger the ALIGN_INT alarm can be set via the ALIGN_THR[2:0]
bits, whose settings are given in Table 37. If the sync alignment error exceeds the threshold in either the positive or
negative direction, the alarm becomes active. If it is then desired to reestablish the desired input-to-output sync
phase relationship, a realignment can be performed. A realignment request may cause FS_OUT to
instantaneously shift its output edge location in order to align with the active input sync phase.

For cases where phase skew is required, see Section “6.7. Output Phase Adjust (Si5326, Si5368)” for more details
on controlling the sync input to sync output phase skew via the FSYNC_SKEW[16:0] bits. See Section “7.2. Output
Clock Drivers” for information on the FS_OUT signal format, pulse width, and active logic level control.
6.8.2. FSYNC Skew Control (Si5368)
When CKIN3 and CKIN4 are configured as frame sync inputs (CK_CONFIG_REG = 1), phase skew of the sync
input active edge to FS_OUT active edge is controllable via the FSYNC_SKEW[16:0] register bits. Skew control
has a resolution of 1/fCKOUT2 and a range of 131,071/fCKOUT2. The entered skew value must be less than the
period of CKIN3, CKIN4, and FS_OUT.
The skew should not be changed more than once per FS_OUT period. If a FSYNC realignment is being made, the
skew should not be changed until the realignment is complete. The skew value and the FS_OUT pulse width
should not be changed within the same FS_OUT period.
Before writing the three bytes needed to specify a new FSYNC_SKEW[16:0] value, the user should set the register
bit FSKEW_VALID = 0. This causes the alignment state machine to keep using the previous FSYNC_SKEW[16:0]
value, ignoring the new register values as they are being written. Once the new FSYNC_SKEW[16:0] value has
been completely written, the user should set FSKEW_VALID = 1 at which time the alignment state machine will
read the new skew alignment value. Note that when the new FSYNC_SKEW[16:0] value is used, a phase step will
occur in FS_OUT.
6.8.3. Including FSYNC Inputs in Clock Selection (Si5368)
The frame sync inputs, CKIN3 and CKIN4, are both monitored for loss-of-signal (LOS3_INT and LOS4_INT)
conditions. To include these LOS alarms in the input clock selection algorithm, set FSYNC_SWTCH_REG = 1. The
LOS3_INT is logically ORed with LOS1_INT and LOS4_INT is ORed with LOS2_INT as inputs to the clock
selection state machine. If it is desired not to include these alarms in the clock selection algorithm, set
FSYNC_SWTCH_REG = 0. The frequency offset (FOS) alarms for CKIN1 and CKIN2 can also be included in the
state machine decision making as described in Section “6.11. Alarms (Si5319, Si5324, Si5325, Si5326, Si5327,
Si5328, Si5367, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)”; however, in frame sync mode
(CK_CONFIG_REG = 1), the FOS alarms for CKIN3 and CKIN4 are ignored.
6.8.4. FS_OUT Polarity and Pulse Width Control (Si5368)
Additional output controls are available for FS_OUT. The active polarity of FS_OUT is set via the FS_OUT_POL
register bit and the active duty cycle is set via the FSYNC_PW[9:0] register. Pulse width settings have a resolution
of 1/fCKOUT2, and a 50% duty cycle setting is provided. Pulse width settings can range from 1 to (NC5-1) CKOUT2
periods, providing the full range of pulse width possibilities for a given NC5 divider setting.
The FS_OUT pulse should not be changed more than once per FS_OUT period. If a FSYNC realignment is being
made, the pulse width should not be changed until the realignment is complete. The FS_OUT pulse width and the
skew value should not be changed within the same FS_OUT period.
Before writing a new value into FSYNC_PW[9:0], the user should set the register bit FPW_VALID = 0. This causes
the FS_OUT pulse width state machine to keep using the previous FSYNC_PW[9:0] value, ignoring the new
register values as they are being written. Once the new FSYNC_PW[9:0] value has been completely written, the
user should set FPW_VALID = 1, at which time the FS_OUT pulse width state machine will read the new pulse
width value.
Writes to NC5_LS should be treated the same as writes to FSYNC_PW. Thus, all writes to NC5_LS should occur
only when FPW_VALID = 0. Any such writes will not take effect until FPW_VALID = 1.
Note that fCKOUT2 must be less than or equal to 710 MHz when CK_CONFIG_REG = 1; otherwise, the FS_OUT
buffer and NC5 divider must be disabled.
6.8.5. Using FS_OUT as a Fifth Output Clock (Si5368)
In applications where the frame synchronization functionality is not needed (CK_CONFIG_REG = 0), FS_OUT can
be used as a fifth clock output. In this case, no realignment requests should be made to the NC5 divider (hold
FS_ALIGN = 0 and FSYNC_ALIGN_REG = 0). Output pulse width and polarity controls for FS_OUT are still
available as described above. The 50% duty cycle setting would be used to generate a typical balanced output
clock.

6.9. Output Clock Drivers (Si5319, Si5324, Si5325, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5367,
Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, Si5376)
The device includes a flexible output driver structure that can drive a variety of loads, including LVPECL, LVDS,
CML, and CMOS formats. The signal format of each output is individually configurable through the
SFOUTn_REG[2:0] register bits, which modify the output common mode and differential signal swing.
Table 38 shows the signal formats based on the supply voltage and the type of load being driven. For the CMOS
setting, both output pins drive single-ended in-phase signals and should be externally shorted together to obtain
the maximum drive strength.

The SFOUTn_REG[2:0] register bits can also be used to disable the outputs. Disabling the outputs puts the
CKOUT+ and CKOUT– pins in a high-impedance state relative to VDD (common mode tri-state) while the two
outputs remain connected to each other through a 200  on-chip resistance (differential impedance of 200 ). The
clock output buffers and DSPLL output dividers NCn are powered down in disable mode.
The additional functions of “Hold Logic 1” and “Hold Logic 0”, which create static logic levels at the outputs, are
available. For differential output buffer formats, the Hold Logic 1 state causes the positive output of the differential
signal to remain at its high logic level while the negative output remains at the low logic level. For CMOS output
buffer format, both outputs remain high during the Hold Logic 1 state. These functions are controlled by the
HLOG_n bits. When entering or exiting the “Hold Logic 1” or “Hold Logic 0” states, no glitches or runt pulses are
generated on the outputs. Changes to SFOUT or HLOG will change the output phase. An ICAL is required to reestablish the output phase. When SFOUT = 010 for CMOS, bypass mode is not supported.
6.9.1. Disabling CKOUTn
Disabling CKOUTn output powers down the output buffer and output divider. Individual disable controls are
available for each output using the DSBLn_REG.
6.9.2. LVPECL TQFP Output Signal Format Restrictions at 3.3 V (Si5367, Si5368, Si5369)
The LVPECL and CMOS output formats draw more current than either LVDS or CML; therefore, there are
restrictions in the allowed output format pin settings that limit the maximum power dissipation for the TQFP devices
when they are operated at 3.3 V. When Vdd = 3.3 V and there are four enabled LVPECL or CMOS outputs, the fifth
output must be disabled. When Vdd = 3.3 V and there are five enabled outputs, there can be no more than three
outputs that are either LVPECL or CMOS. All other configurations are valid, including all with Vdd = 2.5 V.

6.10. PLL Bypass Mode (Si5319, Si5324, Si5325, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5367, Si5368,
Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)
The device supports a PLL bypass mode in which the selected input clock is fed directly to the output buffers,
bypassing the DSPLL. In PLL bypass mode, the input and output clocks will be at the same frequency. PLL bypass
mode is useful in a laboratory environment to measure system performance with and without the jitter attenuation
provided by the DSPLL. The BYPASS_REG bit controls enabling/disabling PLL bypass mode.
Before going into bypass mode, it is recommended that the part enter Digital Hold by setting DHOLD. Internally, the
bypass path is implemented with high-speed differential signaling for low jitter. Note that the CMOS output format
does not support bypass mode.
6.11. Alarms (Si5319, Si5324, Si5325, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5367, Si5368, Si5369,
Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)
Summary alarms are available to indicate the overall status of the input signals and frame alignment (Si5368 only).
Alarm outputs stay high until all the alarm conditions for that alarm output are cleared. The Register VALTIME
controls how long a valid signal is re-applied before an alarm clears. Table 39 shows the available settings. Note
that only for VALTIME[1:0] = 00, hitless switching is not possible.

Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)
The device has loss-of-signal circuitry that continuously monitors CKINn for missing pulses. The LOS circuitry
generates an internal LOSn_INT output signal that is processed with other alarms to generate CnB and
ALARMOUT.
An LOS condition on CKIN1 causes the internal LOS1_INT alarm become active. Similarly, an LOS condition on
CKINn causes the LOSn_INT alarm become active. Once a LOSn_INT alarm is asserted on one of the input
clocks, it remains asserted until that input clock is validated over a designated time period. If another error
condition on the same input clock is detected during the validation time then the alarm remains asserted and the
validation time starts over.
6.11.1.1. Narrowband LOS Algorithms (Si5319, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374,
Si5375, and Si5376)
There are three options for LOS: LOS, LOS_A, and no LOS, which are selected using the LOSn_EN registers. The
values for the LOSn_EN registers are given in Table 40.

6.11.1.2. Standard LOS (Si5319, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)
To facilitate automatic hitless switching, the LOS trigger time can be significantly reduced by using the default LOS
option (LOSn_EN = 11). The LOS circuitry divides down each input clock to produce a 2 kHz to 2 MHz signal. The
LOS circuitry over samples this divided down input clock using a 40 MHz clock to search for extended periods of
time without input clock transitions. If the LOS monitor detects twice the normal number of samples without a clock
edge, an LOS alarm is declared. The LOSn trigger window is based on the value of the input divider N3. The value
of N3 is reported by DSPLLsim.
The range over which LOS is guaranteed to not produce false positive assertions is 100 ppm. For example, if a
device is locked to an input clock on CKIN1, the frequency of CKIN2 should differ by no more than 100 ppm to
avoid false LOS2 assertions.
The frequency range over which FOS monitoring may occur is from 10 to 710 MHz.
6.11.1.3. LOSA (Si5319, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)
A slower response version of LOS called LOSA is available and should be used under certain conditions. Because
LOSA is slower and less sensitive than LOS, its use should be considered for applications with quasi-periodic
clocks (e.g., gapped clocks with one or more consecutive clock edges removed), when switching between input
clocks with a large difference in frequency and any other application where false positive assertions of LOS may
incorrectly cause the Any-Frequency device to be forced into Digital Hold.
For example, one might consider the use of LOSA instead of LOS in Free Run mode applications because the two
clock inputs will not be the same exact frequency. This will avoid false LOS assertions when the XA/XB frequency
differs from the other clock inputs by more than 100 ppm. See Section 6.11.1.3 for more information on LOSA.
6.11.1.4. LOS disabled (Si5319, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)
For situations where no form of LOS is desired, LOS can be disabled by writing 00 to LOSn_EN. This mode is
provided to support applications which implement custom LOS algorithms off-chip. If this approach is taken, the
only remaining methods of entering Digital Hold will be FOS or by setting DHOLD (register 3, bit 5).
6.11.1.5. Wideband LOS Algorithm (Si5322, Si5365)
Each input clock is divided down to produce a 78 kHz to 1.2 MHz signal before entering the LOS monitoring
circuitry. The same LOS algorithm as described in the above section is then used. FOS is not available in wideband
devices.
6.11.1.6. LOS Alarm Outputs (Si5319, Si5324, Si5325, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5367, Si5369, Si5374,
Si5375, and Si5376)
When LOS is enabled, an LOS condition on CKIN1 causes LOS1_INT to become active. Similarly, when LOS is
enabled, an LOS condition on CKIN2 causes LOS2_INT to become active. Once a LOSn_INT alarm is asserted on
one of the input clocks, it remains asserted until the input clock is validated over a designated time period. If
another error condition on the same input clock is detected during the validation time then the alarm remains
asserted and the validation time starts over.
6.11.2. FOS Algorithm (Si5324, Si5325, Si5326, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, and Si5376)
The frequency offset (FOS) alarms indicate if the input clocks are within a specified frequency range relative to the
frequency of a reference clock. The reference clock can be provided by any of the four input clocks (two for Si5324,
Si5325 or Si5326) or the XA/XB input. The default FOS reference is CKIN2. The frequency monitoring circuitry
compares the frequency of the input clock(s) with the FOS reference clock If the frequency offset of an input clock
exceeds a selected frequency offset threshold, an FOS alarm (FOS_INT register bit) is declared for that clock
input. Be aware that large amounts of wander can cause false FOS alarms.
Note: For the Si5368, If CK_CONFIG_REG = 1, only CKIN1 and CKIN2 are monitored; CKIN3 and CKIN4 are used for
FSYNC and are not monitored.
The frequency offset threshold is selectable using the FOS_THR[1:0] bits. Settings are available for compatibility
with SONET Minimum Clock (SCMD) or Stratum 3/3E requirements. See the data sheet for more information. The
device supports FOS hystereses per GR-1244-CORE, making the device less susceptible to FOS alarm
chattering. A reference clock with suitable accuracy and drift specifications to support the intended application
should be used. The FOS reference clock is set via the FOSREFSEL[2:0] bits as shown in Table 41. More than one
input can be monitored against the FOS reference, i.e., there can be more than one monitored clock, but only one

FOS reference. When the XA/XB input is used as the FOS reference, there is only one reference frequency band
that is allowed: from 37 MHz to 41 MHz.

Both the FOS reference and the FOS monitored clock must be divided down to the same clock rate and this clock
rate must be between 10 MHz and 27 MHz. As can be seen in Figure 31, the values for P and Q must be selected
so that the FOS comparison occurs at the same frequency. The registers that contain the values for P and Q are
the CKINnRATE[2:0] registers.

The frequency band of each input clock must be specified to use the FOS feature. The CLKNRATE registers
specify the frequency of the device input clocks as shown in Table 42.
When the FOS reference is the XA/XB oscillator (either internal or external), the value of Q in Figure 31 is always
2, for an effective CLKINnRATE of 1, as shown in Table 42.

6.11.3. C1B, C2B (Si5319, Si5324, Si5325, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)
A LOS condition causes the associated LOS1_INT or LOS2_INT read only register bit to be set. A LOS condition
on CKIN_1 will also be reflected onto C1B if CK1_BAD_PIN = 1. Likewise, a LOS condition on CKIN_2 will also be
reflected onto C2B if CK2_BAD_PIN = 1.
A FOS condition causes the associated FOS1_INT or FOS2_INT read only register bit to be set. FOS monitoring is
enabled or disabled using the FOS_EN bit. If FOS is enabled (FOS_EN = 1) and CK1_BAD_PIN = 1, a FOS
condition will also be reflected onto its associated output pin, C1B or C2B. If FOS is disabled (FOS_EN = 0), the
FOS1_INT and FOS2_INT register bits do not affect the C1B and C2B alarm outputs, respectively.
Once an LOS or FOS alarm is asserted on one of the input clocks, it is held high until the input clock is validated
over a designated time period. The validation time is programmable via the VALTIME[1:0] register bits as shown in
Table 39 on page 84. If another error condition on the same input clock is detected during the validation time then
the alarm remains asserted and the validation time starts over.
[Si5326]: Note that hitless switching between input clocks applies only when the input clock validation time
VALTIME[1:0] = 01 or higher.
6.11.4. LOS (Si5319, Si5375)
A LOS condition causes the LOS_INT read only register bit to be set. This LOS condition will also be reflected onto
the INT_CB pin.
6.11.5. C1B, C2B, C3B, ALRMOUT (Si5367, Si5368, Si5369 [CK_CONFIG_REG = 0])
The generation of alarms on the C1B, C2B, C3B, and ALRMOUT outputs is a function of the input clock
configuration, and the frequency offset alarm enable as shown in Table 43. The LOSn_INT and FOSn_INT signals
are the raw outputs of the alarm monitors. These appear directly in the device status registers. Sticky versions of
these bits (LOSn_FLG, FOSn_FLG) drive the output interrupt and can be individually masked. When the device
inputs are configured as four input clocks (CK_CONFIG = 0), the ALRMOUT pin reflects the status of the CKIN4
input. The equations below assume that the output alarm is active high; however, the active polarity is selectable
via the CK_BAD_POL bit.
Operation of the C1B, C2B, C3B, and ALRMOUT pins is enabled based on setting the C1B_PIN, C2B_PIN,
C3B_PIN, and ALRMOUT_PIN register bits. Otherwise, the pin will tri-state. Also, if INT_PIN = 1, the interrupt
functionality will override the appearance of ALRMOUT at the output even if ALRMOUT_PIN = 1.
Once an LOS or FOS alarm is asserted for one of the input clocks, it is held high until the input clock is validated
over a designated time period. The validation time is programmable via the VALTIME[1:0] register bits as shown in
Table 39 on page 84. If another error condition on the same input clock is detected during the validation time then
the alarm remains asserted and the validation time starts over.
Note that hitless switching between input clocks applies only when the input clock validation time
VALTIME[1:0] = 01 or higher.

The generation of alarms on the C1B, C2B, C3B, and ALRMOUT outputs is a function of the input clock
configuration, and the frequency offset alarm enable as shown in Table 44. The LOSn_INT and FOSn_INT signals
are the raw outputs of the alarm monitors. These appear directly in the device status registers. Sticky versions of
these bits (LOSn_FLG, FOSn_FLG) drive the output interrupt and can be individually masked. Since, CKIN3 and
CKIN4 are configured as frame sync inputs (CK_CONFIG_REG = 1), ALRMOUT functions as the alignment alarm
output (ALIGN_INT) as described in Section “6.8. Frame Synchronization Realignment (Si5368 and
CK_CONFIG_REG = 1)”. The equations below assume that the output alarm is active high; however, the active
polarity is selectable via the CK_BAD_POL bit.
Operation of the C1B, C2B, C3B, and ALRMOUT pins is enabled based on setting the C1B_PIN, C2B_PIN,
C3B_PIN, and ALRMOUT_PIN register bits. Otherwise, the pin will tri-state. Also, if INT_PIN = 1, the interrupt
functionality will override the appearance of ALRMOUT at the output even if ALRMOUT_PIN = 1.
Once an LOS or FOS alarm is asserted for one of the input clocks, it is held high until the input clock is validated
over a designated time period. The validation time is programmable via the VALTIME[1:0] register bits as described
in the data sheet. If another error condition on the same input clock is detected during the validation time then the

6.11.7. LOS Algorithm for Reference Clock Input (Si5319, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369,
Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)
The reference clock input on the XA/XB port is monitored for LOS. The LOS circuitry divides the signal at XA/XB by
128, producing a 78 kHz to 1.2 MHz signal, and monitors the signal for LOS using the same algorithm as described
in Section “6.11.1. Loss-of-Signal Alarms (Si5319, Si5324, Si5325, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5367, Si5368,
Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)”. The LOSX_INT read only bit reflects the state of a loss-of-signal monitor on
the XA/XB port. For the Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376, the XA/XB port refers to the OSC_P and OSC_N pins.
6.11.8. LOL (Si5319, Si5324, Si5326, Si5327, Si5328, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)
The device has a PLL lock detection algorithm that indicates the lock status on the LOL output pin and the
LOL_INT read-only register bit. The algorithm works by continuously monitoring the phase of the input clock in
relation to the phase of the feedback clock. A retriggerable one-shot is set each time a potential phase cycle slip
condition is detected. If no potential phase cycle slip occurs for the retrigger time, the LOL output is set low,
indicating the PLL is in lock. The LOL pin is held in the active state during an internal PLL calibration. The active
polarity of the LOL output pin is set using the LOL_POL register bit (default active high).
The lock detect retrigger time is user-selectable, independent of the loop bandwidth. The LOCKT[2:0] register bits
must be set by the user to the desired setting. Table 45 shows the lock detect retrigger time for both modes of
operation. LOCKT is the minimum amount of time that LOL will be active.

6.11.9. Device Interrupts
Alarms on internal real-time status bits such as LOS1_INT, FOS1_INT, etc. cause their associated interrupt flags
(LOS1_FLG, FOS1_FLG, etc.) to be set and held. The interrupt flag bits can be individually masked or unmasked
with respect to the output interrupt pin. Once an interrupt flag bit is set, it will remain high until the register location
is written with a “0” to clear the flag.
6.12. Device Reset
Upon powerup or asserting Reset via the RST pin or software, the device internally executes a power-on-reset
(POR) which resets the internal device logic and tristates the device outputs. The device waits for configuration
commands and the receipt of the ICAL = 1 command to start its calibration. Any changes to the CMODE pin
require that RST be toggled to reset the part. The power-up default register values are given in the data sheets for
these parts.

6.13. I2C Serial Microprocessor Interface
When configured in I2C control mode (CMODE = L), the control interface to the device is a 2-wire bus for
bidirectional communication. The bus consists of a bidirectional serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock input
(SCL). Both lines must be connected to the positive supply via an external pull-up. In addition, an output interrupt
(INT) is provided with selectable active polarity (determined by INT_POL bit). Fast mode operation is supported for
transfer rates up to 400 kbps as specified in the I2C-Bus Specification standard. To provide bus address flexibility,
three pins (A[2:0]) are available to customize the LSBs of the device address. The complete bus address for the
device is as follows:
1 1 0 1 A[2] A[1] A[0] R/W.
Figure 32 shows the command format for both read and write access. Data is always sent MSB first. The timing
specifications and timing diagram for the I2C bus can be found in the I2C-Bus Specification standard (fast mode
operation) (See: http://www.standardics.nxp.com/literature/books/i2c/pdf/i2c.bus.specification.pdf).
The maximum I2C clock speed is 400 kHz.

6.14. Serial Microprocessor Interface (SPI)
When configured in SPI control mode (CMODE = H), the control interface to the device is a 4-wire interface
modeled after commonly available microcontroller and serial peripheral devices. The interface consists of a clock
input (SCLK), slave select input (SSb), serial data input (SDI), and serial data output (SDO). In addition, an output
interrupt (INT) is provided with selectable active polarity (determined by INT_POL bit).
Data is transferred a byte at a time with each register access consisting of a pair of byte transfers. Figure 34 and
Figure 35 illustrate read and write/set address operations on the SPI bus, and AC SPEC gives the timing
requirements for the interface. Table 46 shows the SPI command format.

The first byte of the pair is the instruction byte. The “Set Address” command writes the 8 bit address value that will
be used for the subsequent read or write. The “Write” command writes data into the device based on the address
previously established and the “Write/Address Increment” command writes data into the device and then
automatically increments the register address for use on the subsequent command. The “Read” command reads
one byte of data from the device and the “Read/Address Increment” reads one byte and increments the register
address automatically. The second byte of the pair is the address or data byte.
As shown in Figure 34 and Figure 35, SSb should be held low during the entire two byte transfer. Raising SSb
resets the internal state machine; so, SSb can optionally be raised between each two byte transfers to guarantee
the state machine will be reinitialized. During a read operation, the SDO becomes active on the falling edge of
SCLK and the 8-bit contents of the register are driven out MSB first. The SDO is high impedance on the rising edge
of SS. SDI is a “don’t care” during the data portion of read operations. During write operations, data is driven into
the device via the SDI pin MSB first. The SDO pin will remain high impedance during write operations. Data always
transitions with the falling edge of the clock and is latched on the rising edge. The clock should return to a logic
high when no transfer is in progress.
The SPI port supports continuous clocking operation where SSb is used to gate two or four byte transfers. The
maximum speed supported by SPI is 10 MHz.

7.1. Input Clock Buffers
Any-Frequency Precision Clock devices provide differential inputs for the CKINn clock inputs. These inputs are
internally biased to a common mode voltage and can be driven by either a single-ended or differential source.
Figure 37 through Figure 41 show typical interface circuits for LVPECL, CML, LVDS, or CMOS input clocks. Note
that the jitter generation improves for higher levels on CKINn (within the limits described in the data sheet).
AC coupling the input clocks is recommended because it removes any issue with common mode input voltages.
However, either ac or dc coupling is acceptable. Figures 37 and 38 show various examples of different input
termination arrangements.
Unused inputs should have an ac ground connection. For microprocessor-controlled devices, the PD_CKn bits
may be set to shut off unused input buffers to reduce power.

7.2. Output Clock Drivers
The output clocks can be configured to be compatible with LVPECL, CML, LVDS, or CMOS as shown in Table 47.
Unused outputs can be left unconnected. For microprocessor-controlled devices, it is recommended to write
“disable” to SFOUTn to disable the output buffer and reduce power. When the output mode is CMOS, bypass
mode is not supported.

7.2.1. LVPECL TQFP Output Signal Format Restrictions at 3.3 V (Si5367, Si5368, Si5369)
The LVPECL and CMOS output formats draw more current than either LVDS or CML; however, there are
restrictions in the allowed output format pin settings so that the maximum power dissipation for the TQFP devices
is limited when they are operated at 3.3 V. When Vdd = 3.3 V and there are four enabled LVPECL or CMOS
outputs, the fifth output must be disabled. When Vdd = 3.3 V and there are five enabled outputs, there can be no
more than three outputs that are either LVPECL or CMOS. All other configurations are valid, including those with
Vdd = 2.5 V.
7.2.2. Typical Output Circuits
It is recommended that the outputs be ac coupled to avoid common mode issues. This suggestion does not apply
to the Si5366 and Si5368 when CKOUT5 is configured as FS_OUT (frame sync) because it can a have a duty
cycle significantly different from 50%.

Si5328, Si5366, Si5368, Si5369, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376)
All devices other than the Si5328, Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376 can use an external crystal or external clock as a
reference. The Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376 are limited to an external reference oscillator and cannot use a crystal.
In order to meet the SyncE timing card wander requirements, the Si5328 should use a low-jitter, low-wander
TCXO. If an external clock is used, it must be ac coupled. With appropriate buffers, the same external reference
clock can be applied to CKINn. Although the reference clock input can be driven single ended (See Figure 51),
best performance is with a crystal or differential LVPECL source. See Figure 55.
If the crystal is located close to a fan, it is recommended that the crystal be covered with some type of thermal cap.
For various crystal vendors and part numbers, see " Appendix A—Narrowband References" on page 108.
1. For SONET applications, the best jitter performance is with a 114.285 MHz third overtone crystal. The
Si5327 crystal is fundamental mode and is limited to values between 37 MHz and 41 MHz.
2. The jitter transfer for the external reference to CKOUT is nearly 1:1 (see " Appendix A—Narrowband
References" on page 108.)
3. In digital hold or VCO freeze mode, the VCO tracks any changes in the external reference clock.

8. Power Supply
These devices incorporate an on-chip voltage regulator to power the device from supply voltages of 1.8, 2.5, or
3.3 V. Internal core circuitry is driven from the output of this regulator while I/O circuitry uses the external supply
voltage directly.
Figure 57 shows a typical power supply bypass network for the TQFP packages. Figure 58 shows a typical power
supply bypass network for QFN.
In both cases, the center ground pad under the device must be electrically and thermally connected to the ground

In some applications, a crystal with frequencies other than 114.285 MHz may be used. See “AN591: Crystal
Selection for the Si5315, Si5317, and other Si53xx Any-Frequency Jitter Attenuating Clocks” for details and a
current list of crystal vendors and approved part numbers.
External reference (and crystal) frequency values should be avoided that result in an output frequency that is an
integer or near integer multiple of the reference frequency. See Appendix B on page 112 for details.
Because the crystal is used as a jitter reference, rapid changes of the crystal temperature can temporarily disturb
the output phase and frequency. For example, it is recommended that the crystal not be placed close to a fan that
is being turned off and on. If a situation such as this is unavoidable, the crystal should be thermally isolated with an
insulating cover.
Fundamental Mode Crystals
For cost sensitive applications that do not have the most demanding jitter requirements, all of the narrow band
devices can use fundamental mode crystals that are in the lowest frequency band ranging from 37 to 41 MHz
(corresponding to RATE = LL). Unlike the other narrowband members of the family, the Si5327 is only capable of
using fundamental mode crystals that are in this range. For a more detailed discussion of the trade-offs associated
with this approach and a list of approved low frequency crystals, please see the application note AN591, which can
be downloaded from www.silabs.com/timing.

Rev. 1.2
Si53xx-RM
Reference Drift/Wander
During Digital Hold, long-term and temperature related drift of the reference input result in a one-to-one drift of the
output frequency. That is, the stability of the any-frequency output is identical to the drift of the reference frequency.
This means that for the most demanding applications where the drift of a crystal is not acceptable, an external
temperature compensated or ovenized oscillator will be required. Drift is not an issue unless the device is in Digital
Hold. Also, the initial accuracy of the reference oscillator (or crystal) is not relevant as long as it is within one of the
frequency bands described in Table 51.
For the Si5374/75/76 reference oscillator (or if there is a need to use a reference oscillator instead of a crystal for
any of the other narrow-band devices), Silicon Labs does not recommend using MEMS-based oscillators. Instead,
Silicon Labs recommends the Si530EB121M109DG, which is a very low-jitter/wander, LVPECL, 2.5 V crystal
oscillator. In addition, the very low loop BW of the Si5324, Si5327, Si5369, and Si5374 means that they can be
particularly susceptible to reference sources that have high wander. Experience has shown that in spite of having
low jitter, some MEMs oscillators have high wander, and these devices should be avoided. Contact Silicon Labs for
details. To meet the wander requirements of G.8262 for SyncE timing cards, a TCXO or OCXO should be used as
the reference oscillator for the Si5328. For details, see Si5328 data sheet and “AN776: Using the Si5328 in a
G.8262 compliant SyncE Application”.
Reference Jitter
Jitter on the reference input has a roughly one-to-one transfer function to the output jitter over the band from
100 Hz up to about 30 kHz. If the XA/XB pins implement a crystal oscillator, the reference will have suitably low
jitter if a suitable crystal is used. If the XA/XB pins are connected to an external reference oscillator, the jitter of the
external reference oscillator may also contribute significantly to the output jitter. A typical reference input-to-output
jitter transfer function is shown in Figure 59.

Introduction
To achieve the best jitter performance from Narrowband Any-Frequency Clock devices, a few general guidelines
should be observed:
High f3 Value
f3 is defined as the comparison frequency at the Phase Detector. It is equal to the input frequency divided by N3.
DSPLLsim automatically picks the frequency plan that has the highest possible f3 value and it reports f3 for every
new frequency plan that it generates. f3 has a range from 2 kHz minimum up to 2 MHz maximum. The two main
causes of a low f3 are a low clock input frequency (which establishes an upper bound on f3) and a PLL multiplier
ratio that is comprised of large and mutually prime nominators and denominators. Specifically, for
CKOUT = CKIN x (P/Q), if P and Q are mutually prime and large in size, then f3 may have a low value. Very low
values of f3 usually result in extra jitter as can be seen in Figures 60 through 64 and in Table 53.
For the f3 study, the input, output and VCO frequencies were held constant while the dividers were manipulated by
hand to artificially reduce the value of f3. Two effects can be seen as f3 approaches the 2 kHz lower limit: there are
“spur like” spikes in the mid-band and the noise floor is elevated at the near end. It is also clear that once f3 is
above roughly 50 kHz, there is very little benefit from further increasing f3. Note that the loop bandwidth for this
study was 60 Hz and any noise below 60 Hz is a result of the input clock, not the Any-Frequency Precision Clock.

Figure 63 shows similar results and ties them to RMS jitter values. It also helps to illustrate one potential remedy
for solutions with low f3. Note that 38.88 MHz x 5 = 194.4 MHz. In this case, an FPGA was used to multiply a
38.88 MHz input clock up by a factor of five to 194.4 MHz, using a feature such as the Xilinx DCM (Digital Clock
Manager). Even though FPGAs are notorious for having jittered outputs, the jitter attenuating feature of the
Narrowband Any-Frequency Clocks allow an FPGA’s output to be used to produce a very clean clock, as can be
seen from the jitter numbers below.

Reference vs. Output Frequency
Because of internal coupling, output frequencies that are an integer multiple (or close to an integer multiple) of the
XA/XB reference frequency (either internal or external) should be avoided. Figure 64 illustrates this by showing a
38.88 MHz reference being used to generate both a 622.08 MHz output (which is an integer multiple of 38.88 MHz)
and 696.399 MHz (which is not an integer multiple of 38.88 MHz). Notice the mid-band spurs on the 622.08 MHz
output, which contribute to the RMS phase noise for the SONET jitter masks. Their effect is more pronounced for
the broadband case. For more information on this effect, see "Appendix G—Near Integer Ratios" on page 155.

The crystal frequency of 114.285 MHz was picked for its lack of integer relationship to most of the expected output
frequencies. If, for instance, an output frequency of 457.14 MHz (= 4 x 114.285 MHz) were desired, it would be
preferable not to use the 114.285 MHz crystal as the reference. For a more detailed study of this, see "Appendix
G—Near Integer Ratios" on page 155.

High Reference Frequency
When selecting a reference frequency, with all other things being equal, the higher the reference frequency, the
lower the output jitter. Figures 65 and 66 compare the results with a 114.285 MHz crystal versus a 40 MHz crystal.
For a discussion of the available reference frequencies, see section " Resonator/External Clock Selection" on page

APPENDIX C—TYPICAL PHASE NOISE PLOTS
Introduction
The following are some typical phase noise plots. The clock input source is a Rohde and Schwarz model SML03
RF Generator. Except as noted, the phase noise analysis equipment is the Agilent E5052B. Also (except as noted),
the Any-Frequency part was an Si5326 operating at 3.3 V with an ac-coupled differential PECL output and an accoupled differential sine wave input from the RF generator at 0 dBm. Note that, as with any PLL, the output jitter
that is below the loop bandwidth of the Any-Frequency device is caused by the jitter of the input clock, not the AnyFrequency Precision Clock. Except as noted, the loop bandwidths were 60 Hz to 100 Hz.

APPENDIX H—JITTER ATTENUATION AND LOOP BW
The following illustrates the effects of different loop BW values on the jitter attenuation of the Any-Frequency
devices. The jitter consists of sine wave modulation at varying frequencies. The RMS jitter values of the modulated
sine wave input is compared to the output jitter of an Si5326 and an Si5324. For reference, the top entry in the
table lists the jitter without any modulation. For each entry in the table, the corresponding phase noise plots are
presented.

Notes:
1. All phase noise plots are with 622.08 MHz input and 622.08 MHz output.
Si5326 bandwidth = 120 Hz; Si5324 bandwidth = 7 Hz.
2. FM modulation at F = Fmod with modulation amplitude = Fdev.
3. Jitter start is the start of the brick wall integration band. All integration bands end at 50 MHz.
4. Phase noise measured by Agilent model E5052B.
5. RF Generator was Rohde and Schwarz model SML03.

APPENDIX I—RESPONSE TO A FREQUENCY STEP FUNCTION
When an input clock is switched between two clocks that differ in freuqency, the PLL will adjust to the new clock
frequency at a rate that depends on the PLL's loop bandwidth value. This process is the same if a single clock
input abruptly changes frequency. If a PLL has a lower loop bandwidth, its response to such a sudden change in
input frequency will be slower than a PLL with a higher loop bandwidth value. Figure 97 shows a measurement of
the output of an Si5326 during a clock switch from a 100 MHz clock input to a 100 MHz + 100 ppm clock input
(100.01 MHz) with a loop BW of 120 Hz. The horizontal scale is time, in seconds. The vertical scale is the Si5326
output frequency in Hz.

APPENDIX J—Si5374, Si5375, Si5376 PCB LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS
The following is a set of recommendations and guidelines for printed circuit board layout with the Si5374, Si5375,
and Si5376 devices. Because the four DSPLLs are in close physical and electrical proximity to one another, PCB
layout is critical to achieving the highest levels of jitter performance. The following images were taken from the
Si537x-EVB (evaluation board) layout. For more details about this board, refer to the Si537x-EVB Evaluation Board
User's Guide.
Isolated Vdd’s
Main Vdd
Isolated Vdd’s
The four Vdd supplies should be isolated from one another with four ferrite beads. They should be separately bypassed with capacitors that are located very close to the Si537x device.
Figure 98. Vdd Plane

Use a solid and undisturbed ground plane for the Si537x and all of the clock input and output return paths.
 For applications that wish to logically connect the four RSTL_x signals, do not tie them together underneath the
BGA package. Instead connect them outside of the BGA footprint.
 Where possible, place the CKOUT and CKIN signals on separate PCB layers with a ground layer between
them. The use of ground guard traces between all clock inputs and outputs is recommended.

These four resistors force the common RESET connection away from the BGA footprint
Figure 99. Ground Plane and Reset
RSTL_x Pins
It is highly recommended that the four RSTL_x pins (RSTL_A, RSTL_B, RSTL_C and RSTL_D) be logically
connected to one another so that the four DSPLLs are always either all in reset or are all out of reset. While in
reset, the DSPLLs VCO will continue to run, and, because the VCOs will not be locked to any signal, they will drift
and can be any frequency value within the VCO range. If a drifting VCO happens to have a frequency value that is
close to an operational DSPLLs VCO, there could be crosstalk between the two VCOs. To avoid this issue, Si537x
DSPLLsim initializes the four DSPLLs with default Free Run frequency plans so that the VCO values are apart from
one another. If the four RSTL_x pins are directly connected to one another, the connections should not occur
directly underneath the BGA package. Instead, the connections should occur outside of the package footprint.

As much as is possible, do not route clock input and output signals
underneath the BGA package. The clock output signals should go
directly outwards from the BGA footprint.

APPENDIX K—Si5374, Si5375, AND Si5376 CROSSTALK
While the four DSPLLs of the Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376 are in close physical and electrical proximity to one
another, crosstalk interference between the DSPLLs is minimal. The following measurements show typical
performance levels that can be expected for the Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376 when all four of their DSPLLs are
operating at frequencies that are close in value to one another, but not exactly the same.
Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376 Crosstalk Test Bed
All four DSPLLs share the same frequency plan:

38.88 MHz input.
38.88 MHz x 4080 / 227 = 698.81 MHz output (rounded).
There are four slightly different input frequencies:


DSPLL A:
 DSPLL B:
 DSPLL C:
 DSPLL D:
38.88 MHz + 0 ppm => 38.88000000 MHz
38.88 MHz + 1 ppm => 38.88003888 MHz
38.88 MHz + 10 ppm => 38.88038880 MHz
38.88 MHz + 20 ppm => 38.88077760 MHz

Figure 105. Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376 DSPLL D
Because they contain four different and independent DSPLLs, the Si5374, Si5375, and Si5376 are supported by a
different software called Si537xDSLLsim. Noting that applications may be plesiochronous, the VCOs of the
DSPLLs can be very close in frequency to one another, which results in crosstalk susceptibility.
To minimize VCO crosstalk, Si537xDSPLLsim is aware that, for almost all frequency plans, there is more than one
possible VCO value. Si537xDSPLLsim makes use of this and strategically places frequency plans in DSPLL
locations so that DSPLLs that are next to one another will not have the same VCO value. For example, there are
two possible VCO values for a 622.08 MHz clock output frequency. In this case, DSPLLs A and C would have one
VCO value, while DSPLLs B and D would have a different VCO value. In this way, DSPLLs that are diagonally
opposite will have the same VCO value, but immediately adjacent DSPLLs will have different VCO values. In
general, the lower the output frequency, the greater the number of potential VCO values. With output frequencies
less than 200 MHz, there are usually four difference VCO values, which means that all four DSPLLs can have their
own unique VCO value.
To further minimize crosstalk, Si537xDSPLLsim automatically initializes the four DSPLLs with Free Run frequency
plans that both separate and pre-place the four VCO values. This ensures that they will not interfere with each
other or with any subsequent entered frequency plans.

Si5374/75/76 Register Map Partition Example
In a typical line card application, an Si5374/75/76 will supply four clocks to four different channels that might need
to support any combination of services. For example, say that each of the four DSPLLs (A, B, C or D) can be
programmed for either a SONET, OTN/OTU or Ethernet frequency plan in any combination. In this example, call
the SONET plan P1, the OTN/OTU plan P2 and the Ethernet plan P3. Further, assume that there is a need for
dynamic allocation of services at run time. To avoid crosstalk between DSPLLs programmed with similar services
which may have operating frequencies that are close but not exactly the same, the following procedure is
suggested:
Run Si537xDSPLLsim three times, once each for OTN/OTU, Ethernet and SONET. This will result in three register
maps that are each comprised of four sub-maps A, B, C and D, as shown below:
Plan1:
SONET

OTN/OTU

Figure 106. Example Frequency Plan Sources
To accommodate a combination of the three different services at run time, the individual sub-maps from the three
different frequency plans can be placed into the four DSPLLs. However, it is recommended that DSPLL_A only be
loaded with a sub-map that was created for DSPLL_A and not with a sub-map created for any of the other three
DSPLLs, as shown below:
