This and other Rise/Fall Time specifications will be improved/added in a future datasheet release. All customers will be informed of the datasheet update via a PCN at that time. This product bulletin is not a PCN. Reason: Extensive characterization and device history allow Silicon Labs to offer an improved rise/fall time specification to its customers. The product/die has not been revised or modified in any way. Product Identification: 1. All Clock Generator and Clock Buffer IC products with orderable part numbers (OPNs) beginning with the following OPN prefixes are affected. Please see the datasheet’s ordering guide for complete information. OPN Examples OPN Prefix Tubes or Trays Ordering Option (non-Tape & Reel option) Tape & Reel Ordering Option (OPN ends in an “R” suffix) Si5338 Si5338X-A-GM Si5338X-Axxxxx-GM Si5338X-A-GMR Si5338X-Axxxxx-GMR Si5334 Si5334X-Axxxxx-GM Si5334X-Axxxxx-GMR Si5335 Si5335X-Axxxxx-GM Si5335X-Axxxxx-GMR Key: (1) X = device or functional grade; (2) xxxxx = NVM or customer specific code. Customer Actions Needed: No action required. Please contact Silicon Labs technical support for any questions regarding taking advantage of the improved specifications.
