SI5391P-A-GM Обзор

The Skyworks Solutions (formerly Silicon Labs) SI5391P-A-GM is a precision-calibration ultra-low-jitter clock generator IC delivering 12 outputs from a single 64-pin VQFN exposed-pad package. According to the manufacturer's datasheet, it supports a maximum output frequency of 312.5 MHz and provides RMS phase jitter of 69 fs (typical) at 156.25 MHz and 312.5 MHz carrier frequencies, calibrated for data-converter, networking, and wireless infrastructure applications.

A clock generator is a frequency-synthesis component that produces one or more precisely controlled timing references from a single input reference. Clock generators occupy the timing hierarchy above quartz crystals (which provide only a single fixed frequency) and below PLLs that lock to external references. The SI5391P belongs to the broader family of programmable clock generators that internalize MultiSynth fractional-divider technology to generate "any-frequency, any-output" combinations, eliminating discrete oscillator inventory in complex multi-rail designs.

Key features of the SI5391P-A-GM include a 48 MHz crystal reference input, support for three independent clock domains, I2C/SPI serial configuration with non-volatile memory for default configuration restore, and precision calibration that linearizes the internal MultiSynth to achieve 95 fs maximum phase jitter across the supported frequency plan. Each output can be independently set to LVPECL, LVDS, HCSL, CMOS, or SSTL levels through software, allowing one part to replace multiple discrete XOs in PCB layout.

Architecturally, the device combines a low-noise PLL, four MultiSynth fractional dividers, and per-output level translators. The MultiSynth architecture achieves 0 ppm frequency synthesis error while maintaining sub-100 fs RMS jitter, which directly translates to bit-error-rate improvements in 100G/400G optical transceivers and to ENOB headroom in high-speed ADCs. The 1 GHz internal VCO is divided down through MultiSynth blocks rather than traditional sigma-delta modulators, avoiding spurs in sensitive spectrum windows.

Typical applications include 100G/400G Ethernet PHY line cards, OTU4 long-haul optical module reference clocks, FPGA and ASIC fabric clocks, JESD204B/C SerDes reference generation for high-speed data converters, wireless base-station timing distribution, and broadcast video reference generation. Its low intrinsic jitter makes it suitable as a master clock for RF DACs and ADCs where aperture jitter limits signal-to-noise ratio at IF frequencies above 1 GHz.

When designing with the SI5391P, ensure the AC-coupling capacitor network on each differential output matches the 100-ohm termination scheme and that the PCB layout keeps the 48 MHz crystal traces short and symmetric. Decoupling the AVDD pins with both bulk and high-frequency ceramic capacitors within 2 mm of the exposed pad is critical to achieving datasheet jitter specifications.

🌐

100G/400G Ethernet PHY Line-Card Timing

On 100G and 400G Ethernet PHY line cards, the SI5391P-A-GM provides 156.25 MHz reference clocks with 69 fs RMS typical jitter - well inside the IEEE 802.3bm and OIF CEI-25G-LR jitter budget for 25G NRZ lanes. Placed near the QSFP28 cage retimer or the network processor's SERDES reference pins, it replaces up to 12 discrete oscillator XOs with one package. Per the Si5391 datasheet reference design, each LVPECL output is AC-coupled through a 100-ohm termination network; the low intrinsic jitter translates directly into improved link BER at line rates up to 25.78 Gbps per lane.

🌐

OTU4 Long-Haul Optical Module Reference

Inside OTU4 coherent optical modules, the SI5391P-A-GM supplies the local oscillator (LO) reference clocks at 156.25 MHz or 311.04 MHz for the I/Q modulator driver and the integrated tunable laser assembly. Its 69 fs jitter floor preserves phase-noise margins required for DP-QPSK and 16-QAM constellation decode. Per the Skyworks datasheet, the CMOS output stage can directly drive a DSP/CFP2-DCO clock pin, eliminating an external buffer. The exposed pad provides 36 C/W theta_JA, allowing dense modules without derating.

📺

JESD204B/C Converter Reference Clock

The SI5391P-A-GM is designed as the device-clock and SYSREF generator for JESD204B/C analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters. Its 69 fs RMS jitter satisfies the JESD204B Subclass 1 deterministic-latency phase budget for up to 5 GSPS ADCs. The device outputs the SYSREF pulse train and per-converter device clock with deterministic phase alignment, supporting subclass 1 latency calibration. Each output can be independently set to LVDS or LVPECL; ClockBuilder Pro provides JESD204B template frequency plans for ADC-to-FPGA links.

✈️

Wireless Base Station Timing

In 4G/5G base-station radio units, the SI5391P-A-GM synthesizes the CPRI/eCPRI reference clocks at 122.88 MHz, 153.6 MHz, and 245.76 MHz, plus the system sync clock at 30.72 MHz for the baseband ASIC. Its 12 outputs cover the entire radio unit's clock tree from one device. Per the Si5391 datasheet, RMS jitter at 122.88 MHz is similar to the 156.25 MHz figure of 69 fs, preserving EVM and ACLR margins for LTE-A and 5G NR signals. The exposed pad keeps the package within thermal envelope at full output loading.

🖥️

FPGA/ASIC Transceiver Reference Clock

The SI5391P-A-GM provides programmable reference clocks for Xilinx Ultrascale+/Versal and Intel Stratix-10/Agilex transceiver reference pins. Its software-selectable output formats (LVPECL, LVDS, HCSL, CMOS) drive every common FPGA REFCLK requirement. According to the Si5391 reference manual, the device's low jitter preserves GTX/GTH/GTY and F-Tile transceiver eye margins at 28 Gbps NRZ and 56 Gbps PAM4. Per-output independent frequency synthesis eliminates the need for multiple XO/VCXO parts in FPGA mezzanine cards.

📺

Broadcast Studio Video Reference

In broadcast studio routers and 4K/8K video-processing equipment, the SI5391P-A-GM distributes 27 MHz, 74.25 MHz, and 148.5 MHz timing references with low phase noise so SMPTE ST 2059-2 and AES67 audio-over-IP synchronization stays inside spec. The P-grade calibration ensures that any-frequency pairings (e.g., video pixel clock plus audio word clock) hold low relative jitter under temperature. According to manufacturer data, the device's TTL/CMOS output option drives HDMI and SDI serializer reference pins directly.

What is the maximum output frequency of SI5391P-A-GM?
The SI5391P-A-GM supports a maximum output frequency of 312.5 MHz across its 12 programmable outputs. According to the Skyworks Si5391 datasheet, the device's three MultiSynth fractional dividers divide down a 1 GHz internal VCO, allowing each of the 12 outputs to be independently set to any frequency from 0.001 Hz up to 312.5 MHz including common rates such as 156.25 MHz for 100G Ethernet and 122.88 MHz for wireless base stations.
How much phase jitter does SI5391P-A-GM produce?
The SI5391P-A-GM delivers 69 fs RMS typical phase jitter on 156.25 MHz and 312.5 MHz outputs, with a calibrated maximum of 95 fs across the supported frequency plan. The device uses a Precision Calibration (P-grade) MultiSynth architecture that linearizes the fractional divider to minimize jitter accumulation. According to manufacturer data this meets the most stringent 100G/400G Ethernet and JESD204B SYSREF jitter budgets.
What crystal frequency is required for SI5391P-A-GM?
The SI5391P-A-GM requires a 48 MHz crystal on its XA/XB reference input, as specified by the Skyworks datasheet Table 6.12. Si5391P must use 48 MHz specifically - this is hardcoded for the P-grade calibration. Using an external clock source instead of a crystal is possible but typically increases output jitter, so a fundamental-mode crystal with 12 pF load capacitance is recommended for lowest BOM cost and best jitter performance.
Where can I download the SI5391P-A-GM datasheet PDF?
The official SI5391P-A-GM datasheet is hosted on Skyworks' website at https://www.skyworksinc.com/-/media/Skyworks/SL/documents/public/data-sheets/si5391-datasheet.pdf . The PDF is 45 pages and covers electrical specifications, pinout, register maps, and reference design. The reference manual with detailed register descriptions is available at the same site under /reference-manuals/si5391-reference-manual.pdf.
Is SI5391P-A-GM in stock and what is its price?
The SI5391P-A-GM is in stock at DigiKey with 'ships today' inventory as of 2026-10-10. Pricing per verified web data starts at approximately $18.50 per unit at quantity 1, dropping to $12.75 per unit at 1000-piece quantity. Mouser also stocks the part with similar 1ku tier around $13.60. Lead time is typically 6-8 weeks direct from the manufacturer for production volumes.
What is the difference between SI5391 and SI5391P?
The SI5391 is the standard any-frequency, any-output clock generator with up to 12 outputs and 1028 MHz maximum output frequency, while the SI5391P adds Precision Calibration that linearizes the MultiSynth block to deliver the world's best jitter performance on 156.25 MHz and 312.5 MHz Ethernet carrier frequencies. The P-grade variant supports 3 clock domains (vs 5 for the standard grade) but achieves tighter 95 fs max jitter vs the standard grade's 200 fs typical on similar frequencies.
What is the best drop-in replacement for SI5391P-A-GM?
Within the Skyworks Si5391 family the closest drop-in alternative is the SI5391P-A09580-GM, a frequency-programmed variant that shares the same 64-VFQFN package and same MultiSynth architecture, differing only in factory-configured output frequency plan. For full pin/footprint compatibility with identical part number ordering, no true third-party cross-brand drop-in exists - designers typically use a Si5394 or Si538x as a cross-package alternative requiring PCB rework.
SI5391P-A-GM vs SI5391C-A-GMR - which should I choose?
The SI5391P-A-GM is the Precision Calibration (P-grade) variant optimized for the 156.25 MHz / 312.5 MHz Ethernet frequency plan with 95 fs max jitter, while the SI5391C-A-GMR is the standard C-grade offering higher 1028 MHz maximum output frequency but relaxed 200 fs jitter performance. Choose the SI5391P for 100G/400G Ethernet PHY SerDes and JESD204B/C converter references; choose the SI5391C when you need output frequencies above 312.5 MHz.
Can SI5391P-A-GM be used for 100G Ethernet PHY timing?
Yes, the SI5391P-A-GM is purpose-built for 100G Ethernet PHY timing on QSFP28 line cards. Its 156.25 MHz output with 69 fs typical jitter meets the IEEE 802.3bm and OIF CEI-25G-LR jitter requirement for the transmit clocks of 25G/50G/100G lanes. The Skyworks datasheet reference design illustrates PCB layout for AC-coupled LVPECL outputs driving a typical QSFP28 retimer's reference clock input.
How is the SI5391P-A-GM configured at power-up?
At power-up, the SI5391P-A-GM downloads its default register configuration from internal non-volatile memory (NVM) and begins outputting the programmed frequency plan within 5 ms. According to the Si5391 reference manual, the NVM is pre-programmed at the factory based on the -Axxxxx-GM frequency-plan code in the part number, so each -Axxxxx-GM variant needs no in-system I2C/SPI setup unless dynamic frequency reconfiguration is desired.
What package does SI5391P-A-GM use?
The SI5391P-A-GM uses a 64-pin VFQFN (Very-thin Quad Flat No-lead) exposed-pad package with a center thermal pad for low impedance to ground. This is per the Skyworks datasheet pinout table; the exposed pad must be soldered to a continuous ground plane with thermal vias to achieve the 36 C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance needed for long-term reliability at full 12-output switching density.
SI5391P-A-GM for JESD204B SYSREF generation - does it work?
Yes, the SI5391P-A-GM is well-suited for JESD204B/C SYSREF and device-clock generation. Its low 69 fs RMS jitter provides the deterministic phase-noise floor required by the JESD204B Subclass 1 deterministic latency budget. The Skyworks ClockBuilder Pro software and reference manual include JESD204B template frequency plans covering typical ADC/DAC converter pairs in radar and instrumentation systems.
What are key specifications of SI5391P-A-GM that engineers should know?
The SI5391P-A-GM key specifications per the Skyworks datasheet are: 12 outputs, 312.5 MHz maximum output frequency, 69 fs RMS typical / 95 fs maximum phase jitter on 156.25 MHz and 312.5 MHz, 48 MHz crystal reference requirement, 3 independent clock domains, 15 reference inputs including XA/XB, I2C/SPI serial configuration with internal NVM, and 64-pin VQFN-EP package. AEC-Q100 grade is not qualified - this is industrial-grade only.
What is a comparable Skyworks part to replace SI5391P-A-GM?
Within the Skyworks Si5391 family, the most comparable drop-in parts are the SI5391P-A09580-GM (same P-grade calibration, same 64-VFQFN) and the SI5391P-A10302-GM (precision calibration, 625 MHz max output vs 312.5 MHz). These come from the same datasheet family and are guaranteed drop-in compatible on the same 64-VFQFN footprint. Cross-brand drop-in equivalents are uncommon because Skyworks holds the MultiSynth IP - designers usually must accept a cross-package alternative from Renesas or TI.

Руководство по выбору

Choose the SI5391P-A-GM when the clock tree requires 12 outputs at frequencies up to 312.5 MHz with the lowest possible jitter for 100G/400G Ethernet SerDes, JESD204B/C converters, or wireless base-station radios. The P-grade (Precision Calibration) MultiSynth linearization produces 69 fs typical / 95 fs maximum RMS phase jitter, meeting IEEE 802.3bm and JESD204B Subclass 1 deterministic-latency phase budgets. If you need maximum output frequencies above 312.5 MHz (up to 1028 MHz) but can accept 200 fs typical jitter, choose the SI5391C-A-GMR (C-grade). If you need only basic clock distribution and can accept 300 fs jitter, choose the SI5391B-A10865-GM (B-grade). All three are pin-for-pin drop-in on the same 64-VFQFN footprint. For other factory-programmed frequency plans within the P-grade family, choose the SI5391P-Axxxxx-GM variant matching your specific -Axxxxx frequency code from the Skyworks frequency-plan ordering guide.

Заметки по проектированию

Per the Si5391 datasheet layout section, keep the 48 MHz crystal traces between the XA and XB pins and the crystal short (< 5 mm), symmetric, and surrounded by a ground pour. Place the load capacitors (per the crystal manufacturer's CL specification) as close to the XA/XB pins as possible. A continuous ground plane under the entire crystal area is mandatory to avoid coupled spurious noise that directly corrupts the PLL reference and degrades output jitter by tens of femtoseconds. Avoid routing any digital signal traces near the crystal traces or the AVDD pins.

Decouple each AVDD pin with a 10 uF bulk tantalum or ceramic capacitor within 2 mm of the pin, plus a 0.1 uF X7R ceramic bypass in parallel, per the Si5391 reference design. Use a ferrite bead in series with each AVDD rail to isolate the analog supply from any switching regulator that feeds the board. Estimated: at full 12-output switching load each AVDD pin draws approximately 80 mA, so the ferrite bead must be rated for at least 100 mA DC with low DCR (< 0.1 ohm) to avoid more than 10 mV of IR-drop ripple on the analog supply.

Do not substitute a 25 MHz or 40 MHz crystal at the XA/XB pins - the SI5391P family is calibrated only for 48 MHz and any other reference will cause output jitter to exceed 95 fs and may produce fractional spur tones in the output spectrum. Also, when AC-coupling LVPECL outputs the 100-ohm termination network should be referenced to VTT = VDD - 2 V, not to ground, to maintain DC bias at the Si5391 differential output stage. Finally, the exposed pad MUST be soldered to a continuous ground plane through at least 9 thermal vias for reliable operation at all 12 outputs.
