Description
The Si5350A is a highly-flexible, user-definable custom clock generator that is ideally
suited for replacing crystals and crystal oscillators in cost-sensitive applications.
Based on a PLL + high resolution fractional divider MultiSynthTM architecture, the
Si5350A can generate any frequency up to 200 MHz on each of its outputs with
0 ppm error. Spread spectrum is selectable (on/off) on any of the outputs. Custom
pin-controlled Si5350A devices can be requested using the ClockBuilder web-based
part number utility (www.silabs.com/ClockBuilder).

The Si5350A can be configured to support HCSL compatible swing when the VDDO of the output pair of interest is
set to 2.5 V (i.e., VDDOA must be 2.5 V when using CLK0/1; VDDOB must be 2.5 V for CLK2/3 and so on).
The circuit in Figure 3 must be applied to each of the two clocks used, and one of the clocks in the pair must also
be inverted to generate a differential pair.

3. Functional Description
The Si5350A’s synthesis architecture consists of two high-frequency PLLs in addition to one high-resolution
fractional MultiSynthTM divider per output. A block diagram of both the 3-output and 8-output versions are shown in
Figure 4. This unique architecture allows the Si5350A to simultaneously generate up to eight independent, noninteger-related frequencies. In addition, each MultiSynthTM is configurable with two different frequencies (F1_x,
F2_x). This allows a pin controlled glitchless frequency change at each output (CLK0 to CLK5).

4. Configuring the Si5350A
The Si5350A is a factory-programmed custom clock generator that is user definable with a simple to use webbased utility (www.silabs.com/ClockBuilder). The ClockBuilder utility provides a simple graphical interface that
allows the user to enter input and output frequencies along with other custom features as described in the following
sections. All synthesis calculations are automatically performed by ClockBuilder to ensure an optimum
configuration. A unique part number is assigned to each custom configuration.
4.1. Crystal Inputs (XA, XB)
The Si5350A uses a fixed-frequency standard AT-cut crystal as a reference to synthesize its output clocks.
4.1.1. Crystal Frequency
The Si5350A can operate using either a 27 MHz or a 25 MHz crystal.
4.1.2. Internal XTAL Load Capacitors
Internal load capacitors are provided to eliminate the need for external components when connecting a XTAL to the
Si5350A. The total internal XTAL load capacitance (CL) can be selected to be 0, 6, 8, or 10 pF. XTALs with
alternate load capacitance requirements are supported using additional external load capacitance  2 pF (e.g., by
using  4 pF capacitors on XA and XB) as shown in Figure 5.

4.2. Output Clocks (CLK0–CLK7)
The Si5350A is orderable as a 3-output (10-MSOP) or 8-output (20-QFN) clock generator. Output clocks CLK0 to
CLK5 can be ordered with two clock frequencies (F1_x, F2_x) which are selectable with the optional frequency
select pins (FS0/1). See “4.3.3. Frequency Select (FS_0, FS_1)” for more details on the operation of the frequency
select pins.
4.2.1. Output Clock Frequency
Outputs can be configured at any frequency from 2.5 kHz up to 200 MHz. However, only two unique frequencies
above 112.5 MHz can be simultaneously output. For example, 125 MHz (CLK0), 130 MHz (CLK1), and 150 MHz
(CLKx) is not allowed. Note that multiple copies of frequencies above 112.5 MHz can be provided, for example,
125 MHz could be provided on four outputs (CLKS0-3) simultaneously with 130 MHz on four different outputs
(CLKS4-7).
4.2.2. .Spread Spectrum
Spread spectrum can be enabled on any of the clock outputs that use PLLA as its reference. Spread spectrum is
useful for reducing electromagnetic interference (EMI). Enabling spread spectrum on an output clock modulates its
frequency, which effectively reduces the overall amplitude of its radiated energy. Note that spread spectrum is not
available on clocks synchronized to PLLB.
The Si5350A supports several levels of spread spectrum allowing the designer to choose an ideal compromise
between system performance and EMI compliance.
An optional spread spectrum enable pin (SSEN) is configurable to enable or disable the spread spectrum feature.

4.2.3. Invert/Non-Invert
By default, each of the output clocks are generated in phase (non-inverted) with respect to each other. An option to
invert any of the clock outputs is also available.
4.2.4. Output State When Disabled
There are up to three output enable pins configurable on the Si5350A as described in “4.3.4. Output Enable
(OEB_0, OEB_1, OEB_2)” . The output state when disabled for each of the outputs is configurable as output high,
output low, or high-impedance.
4.2.5. Powering Down Unused Outputs
Unused clock outputs can be completely powered down to conserve power.
4.3. Programmable Control Pins (P0–P4) Options
Up to five programmable control pins (P0-P4) are configurable allowing direct pin control of the following features:
4.3.1. Spread Spectrum Enable (SSEN)
An optional control pin allows disabling the spread spectrum feature for all outputs that were configured with
spread spectrum enabled. Hold SSEN low to disable spread spectrum. The SSEN pin provides a convenient
method of evaluating the effect of using spread spectrum clocks during EMI compliance testing.
4.3.2. Power Down (PDN)
An optional power down control pin allows a full shutdown of the Si5350A to minimize power consumption when its
output clocks are not being used. The Si5350A is in normal operation when the PDN pin is held low and is in power
down mode when held high. Power consumption when the device is in power down mode is indicated in Table 3 on
page 4.
4.3.3. Frequency Select (FS_0, FS_1)
The Si5350A offers the option of configuring up to two frequencies per clock output on CLK0-CLK5. This is a useful
feature for applications that need to support more than one clock rate on the same output. An example of this is
shown in Figure 7 where the FS pins selects which frequency is generated from the clock output: F1_0 is
generated when FS is set low, and F2_0 is generated when FS is set high.

Si5350A-B
Up to two frequency select pins are available on the Si5350A. Each of the frequency select pins can be linked to
any of the clock outputs as shown in Figure 8. For example, FS_0 can be linked to control clock frequency
selection on CLK0, CLK3, and CLK5; FS_1 can be used to control clock frequency selection on CLK1, CLK2, and
CLK4. Any other combination is also possible. The frequency select feature is not available for CLKs 6 and 7.
The Si5350A uses control circuitry to ensure that frequency changes are glitchless. This ensures that the clock
always completes its last cycle before starting a new clock cycle of a different frequency.

4.3.4. Output Enable (OEB_0, OEB_1, OEB_2)
Up to three output enable pins (OEB_0/1/2) are available on the Si5350A. Similar to the FS pins, each OEB pin can
be linked to any of the output clocks. In the example shown in Figure 9, OEB_0 is linked to control CLK0, CLK3,
and CLK5; OEB_1 is linked to control CLK6 and CLK7, and OEB_2 is linked to control CLK1, CLK2, CLK4, and
CLK5. Any other combination is also possible. If more than one OEB pin is linked to the same CLK output, the pin
forcing a disable state will be dominant. Clock outputs are enabled when the OEB pin is held low.
The output enable control circuitry ensures glitchless operation by starting the output clock cycle on the first leading
edge after OEB is asserted (OEB = low). When OEB is released (OEB = high), the clock is allowed to complete its
full clock cycle before going into a disabled state. This is shown in Figure 9. When disabled, the output state is
configurable as disabled high, disabled low, or disabled in high-impedance.

Si5350A-B
4.4. Design Considerations
The Si5350A is a self-contained clock generator that requires very few external components. The following general
guidelines are recommended to ensure optimum performance.
4.4.1. Power Supply Decoupling/Filtering
The Si5350A has built-in power supply filtering circuitry to help keep the number of external components to a
minimum. All that is recommended is one 0.1 to 1.0 µF decoupling capacitor per power supply pin. This capacitor
should be mounted as close to the VDD and VDDO pins as possible without using vias.
4.4.2. Power Supply Sequencing
The VDD and VDDOx (i.e., VDDO0, VDDO1, VDDO2, VDDO3) power supply pins have been separated to allow
flexibility in output signal levels. Power supply sequencing for VDD and VDDOx requires that all VDDOx be
powered up either before or at the same time as VDD. Unused VDDOx pins should be tied to VDD.
4.4.3. External Crystal
The external crystal should be mounted as close to the pins as possible using short PCB traces. The XA and XB
traces should be kept away from other high-speed signal traces. See “AN551: Crystal Selection Guide” for more
details.
4.4.4. External Crystal Load Capacitors
The Si5350A provides the option of using internal and external crystal load capacitors. If external load capacitors
are used, they should be placed as close to the XA/XB pads as possible. See “AN551: Crystal Selection Guide” for
more details.
4.4.5. Unused Pins
Unused control pins (P0–P4) should be tied to GND.
Unused output pins (CLK0–CLK7) should be left floating.
4.4.6. Trace Characteristics
The Si5350A features various output drive strength settings. It is recommended to configure the trace
characteristics as shown in Figure 10 when the default high output drive setting is used.
ZO = 50 ohms
R = 0 ohms
