2. Functional Description
The Si53340 is a low-jitter, low-skew 1:4 LVDS buffer with an integrated 2:1 input mux. The device has a universal
input that accepts most common differential or LVCMOS input signals. A clock select pin is used to select the
active input clock.
2.1. Universal, Any-Format Input
The universal input stage enables simple interfacing to a wide variety of clock formats, including LVPECL, lowpower LVPECL, LVCMOS, LVDS, HCSL, and CML. Tables 10 and 11 summarize the various ac- and dc-coupling
options supported by the device. For the best high-speed performance, the use of differential formats is
recommended. For both single-ended and differential input clocks, the fastest possible slew rate is recommended
as low slew rates can increase the noise floor and degrade jitter performance. Though not required, a minimum
slew rate of 0.75 V/ns is recommended for differential formats and 1.0 V/ns for single-ended formats. See “AN766:
Understanding and Optimizing Clock Buffer’s Additive Jitter Performance” for more information.

2.2. Input Bias Resistors
Internal bias resistors ensure a differential output low condition in the event that the clock inputs are not connected.
The noninverting input is biased with a 18.75 k pulldown to GND and a 75 k pullup to VDD. The inverting input is
biased with a 75 k pullup to VDD.
Figure 5. Input Bias Resistors
2.3. Input Mux
The Si53340 provides two clock inputs for applications that need to select between one of two clock sources. The
CLK_SEL pin selects the active clock input. The table below summarizes the input and output clock based on the
input mux and output enable pin settings.

2.6. Typical Phase Noise Performance
Each of the following three figures shows three phase noise plots superimposed on the same diagram.
Source Jitter: Reference clock phase noise.
Total Jitter (SE): Combined source and clock buffer phase noise measured as a single-ended output to the phase
noise analyzer and integrated from 12 kHz to 20 MHz.
Total Jitter (Diff'l): Combined source and clock buffer phase noise measured as a differential output to the phase
noise analyzer and integrated from 12 kHz to 20 MHz. The differential measurement as shown in each figure is
made using a balun. See Figure 1 on page 6.
Note: To calculate the total RMS phase jitter when adding a buffer to your clock tree, use root-sum-square (RSS) addition.
The total jitter is a measure of the source plus the buffer's additive phase jitter. The additive jitter (rms) of the buffer
can then be calculated (via root-sum-square addition).

2.7. Input Mux Noise Isolation
The input clock mux is designed to minimize crosstalk between the CLK0 and CLK1. This improves phase jitter
performance when clocks are present at both the CLK0 and CLK1 inputs. Figure 11 below is a measurement the
input mux’s noise isolation.
Figure 11. Input Mux Noise Isolation
2.8. Power Supply Noise Rejection
The device supports on-chip supply voltage regulation to reject noise present on the power supply, simplifying low
jitter operation in real-world environments. This feature enables robust operation alongside FPGAs, ASICs and
SoCs and may reduce board-level filtering requirements. For more information, see “AN491: Power Supply
Rejection for Low Jitter Clocks”.

Notes:
General
1. All dimensions shown are in millimeters (mm).

metal pad is to be 60 μm minimum, all the way around the pad.
Stencil Design
5. A stainless steel, laser-cut and electro-polished stencil with trapezoidal walls should be used to assure
good solder paste release.
6. The stencil thickness should be 0.125 mm (5 mils).
7. The ratio of stencil aperture to land pad size should be 1:1 for all perimeter pads.
8. A 2x2 array of 0.65 mm square openings on a 0.90 mm pitch should be used for the center ground pad.
Card Assembly
9. A No-Clean, Type-3 solder paste is recommended.
10. The recommended card reflow profile is per the JEDEC/IPC J-STD-020 specification for Small Body
Components.
