Description

The Si5351 is an I2C configurable clock generator that is ideally suited for replacing crystals, crystal oscillators, VCXOs, phase-locked loops (PLLs), and fanout buffers in cost-sensitive applications. Based on a PLL/VCXO + high resolution MultiSynth fractional divider architecture, the Si5351 can generate any frequency up to 160 MHz on each of its outputs with 0 ppm error. Three versions of the Si5351 are available to meet a wide variety of applications. The Si5351A generates up to 8 free-running clocks using an internal oscillator for replacing crystals and crystal oscillators. The Si5351B adds an internal VCXO and provides the flexibility to replace both free-running clocks and synchronous clocks. The Si5351B eliminates the need for high er cost, custom pullable crystals while providing reliable operation over a wide tuning range. The Si5351C offers the same flexibility but synchronizes to an external reference clock (CLKIN).

3. Functional Description

The Si5351 is a versatile I2C programmable clock generator that is ideally suited for replacing crystals, crystal oscillators, VCXOs, PLLs, and buffers. A block diagram showing the general architecture of the Si5351 is shown in Figure 3. The device consists of an input stage, two synthesis stages, and an output stage.

The input stage accepts an external crystal (XTAL), a clock input (CLKIN), or a control voltage input (VC) depending on the version of the device (A/B/C). The first stage of synthesis multiplies the input frequencies to an high-frequency intermediate clock, while the second stage of synthesis uses high resolution MultiSynth fractional dividers to generate the desired output frequencies. Additional integer division is provided at the output stage for generating output frequencies as low as 8 kHz. Crosspoint switches at each of the synthesis stages allows total flexibility in routing any of the inputs to any of the outputs.

Because of this high resolution and flexible synthesis architecture, the Si5351 is capable of generating synchronous or free-running non-integer related clock frequencies at each of its outputs, enabling one device to synthesize clocks for multiple clock domains in a design.

Figure 3. Si5351 Block Diagram

3.1. Input Stage

3.1.1. Crystal Inputs (XA, XB)

The Si5351 uses a fixed-frequency standard AT-cut crystal as a reference to the internal oscillator. The output of the oscillator can be used to provide a free-running reference to one or both of the PLLs for generating asynchronous clocks. The output frequency of the oscillator will operate at the crystal frequency, either 25 MHz or 27 MHz. The crystal is also used as a reference to the VCXO to help maintain its frequency accuracy.

Internal load capacitors (C to the Si5351. Options for internal load capacitors are 6, 8, or 10 pF. Crystals with alternate load capacitance requirements are supported using additional external load capacitors as shown in Figure 4. Refer to application note AN551 for crystal recommendations.

3.1.2. External Clock Input (CLKIN)

The external clock input is used as a clock reference for the PLLs when generating synchronous clock outputs. CLKIN can accept any frequency from 10 to 100 MHz. A divider at the input stage limits the PLL inp ut freq uen cy to 30 MHz.

3.1.3. Voltage Control Input (VC)

The VCXO architecture of the Si5350B eliminates the need for an external pullable crystal. Only a standard, lowcost, fixed-frequency (25 or 27 MHz) AT-cut crystal is required.

The tuning range of the VCXO is configurable allowing for a wide variety of applications. Key advantages of the VCXO design in the Si5351 include high linearity, a wide operating range (linear from 10 to 90% of VDD), and reliable startup and operation. Refer to Table 3 on page 5 for VCXO specification details.

A unique feature of the Si5351B is its ability to generate multiple output frequencies controlled by the same control voltage applied to the VC pin. This replaces multiple PLLs or VCXOs that would normally be locked to the same reference. An example is illustrated in Figure 9 on page 15.

3.2. Synthesis Stages

The Si5351 uses two stages of synthesis to generate its final output clocks. The first stage uses PLLs to multiply the lower frequency input references to a high-frequency intermediate clock. The second stage uses highresolution MultiSynth fractional dividers to generate frequencies in the range of 1 MHz to 100 MHz. It is also possible to generate two unique frequencies up to 160 MHz on two or more of the outputs.

A crosspoint switch at the input of the first stage allows each of the PLLs to lock to the CLKIN or the XTAL input. This allows each of the PLLs to lock to a diff erent source for g enerating in dependent fr ee-running and synchronous clocks. Alternatively, both PLLs could lock to the same source. The crosspoint switch at the input of the second stage allows any of the MultiSynth dividers to connect to PLLA or PLLB. This flexible synthesis architecture allows any of the outputs to generate synchronou s or non-synchronous clocks, with spre ad spectrum or without spread spectrum, and with the flexibility of generating non-integer related clock frequencies at each output.

Since the VCXO already generates a high-frequency intermediate clock, it is fed directly into the second stage of synthesis. The MultiSynth high-resolution dividers synthesize the VCXO center frequency to any frequency in the range of ~391 kHz to 160 MHz. The center frequency is then controlled (or pulled) by the VC input. An interesting feature of the Si5351 is that the VCXO output can be routed to more than one MultiSynth divider. This creates a VCXO with multiple output frequencies controlled from one VC input as shown in Figure 5.

Frequencies down to 8 kHz can be generated by applying the R divider at the output of the Multisynth (see Figure 5 below).

Figure 5. Using the Si5351 as a Multi-Output VCXO

3.3. Output Stage

An additional level of division (R) is available at the output stage for generating clocks as low as 8 kHz. All output drivers generate CMOS level outputs with sep arate output volt age supply pins (VDDOx) allowing a dif ferent vo ltage signal level (1.8, 2.5, or 3.3 V) at each of the four 2-output banks.

3.4. 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). E nab ling spre ad spectrum on a n output clock modu lates its frequency, which effectively reduces the overall amplitude of its radiated energy. See “AN554: Si5350/51 PCB Layout Guide” for details. Note that spread spectrum is not available on clocks synchronized to PLLB or to the VCXO.

The Si5351 supports several levels of spread spectrum allowing the designer to chose an ideal compromise between system performance and EMI comp lia nce .

Figure 6. Available Spread Spectrum Profiles

3.5. Control Pins (OEB, SSEN)

The Si5351 offers control pins for enabling/disabling clock outputs and spread spectrum.

3.5.1. Output Enable (OEB)

The output enable pin allows enabling or disabling outputs clocks. Output clocks are enabled when the OEB pin is held low, an d disabled when pulle d high. When disabled, the output state is configur able as disa bled high , disa bled low, or disabled in high-impedance.

The output enable control circuitry ensures glitchless op eration by st arting th e output clock cycle on the first lea ding edge after OEB is pulled low. When OEB is pulled high, the clock is allowed to complete its full clock cycle before going into a disabled state.

3.5.2. Spread Spectrum Enable (SSEN)—Si5351A and Si5351B only

This 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.

Many of the functions and features of the Si5351 are controlled by reading and writing to the RAM space using the

C interface. The following is a list of the common features that are controllable through the I2C interface. A

summary of register functions is shown in Section 7.

Loss of signal (LOS) for the CLKIN input Loss of lock (LOL) for PLLA and PLLB

 Configuration of multiplication and divider values for the PLLs, MultiSynth dividers  Configuration of the Spread Spectru m profile (down or center spread, modulation percentage)  Control of the cross point switch selection for each of the PLLs and MultiSynth dividers  Set output clock options

Enable/disable for each clock output Invert/non-invert for each clock output

Output divider values (2 Output state when disabled (stop hi, stop low, Hi-Z) Output phase offset

The I2C interface operates in slave mode with 7-bit addressing and can operate in Standard-Mode (100 kbps) or Fast-Mode (400 kbps) and supports burst data transfer with auto address increments.

The I

C bus consists of a bidirectional serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock input (SCL) as shown in Figure 7.

Both the SDA and SCL pins must be connected to the VDD supply via an external pull-up as recommended by the

C specification.

, n=1.. 7)

Figure 7. I2C and Control Signals

The 7-bit device (slave) address of the Si5351 consist of a 6-bit fixed address plus a user selectable LSB bit as shown in Figure 8. The LSB bit is selectable as 0 or 1 using the optional A0 pin which is useful for applications that require more than one Si5351 on a single I

C bus.

Figure 8. Si5351 I2C Slave Address

Data is transferred MSB first in 8-bit words as specified by the I2C specification. A write command consists of a 7bit device (slave) address + a write b it, an 8-bit register ad dress, and 8 bits of data as shown in Figure 9. A write burst operation is also shown where every additional data word is written using to an auto-incremented address.

5. Configuring the Si5351

The Si5351 is a highly flexible clock generator which is entirely configurable through its I2C interface. The device’s default configuration is stored in non-volatile memory (NVM) as shown in Figure 11. The NVM is a one time programmable memory (OTP) which can store a custom user configuration at power-up. This is a useful feature for applications that need a clock present at power-up (e.g., for providing a clock to a processor).

Figure 11. Si5351 Memory Configuration

During a power cycle the contents of the NVM are copied into random access memory (RAM), which sets the device configuration that will be used during normal operation. Any changes to the device configuration after power-up are made by reading and writing to registers in the RAM space through the I register map is shown in Section "8. Register Descriptions" on page 25.

5.1. Writing a Custom Configuration to RAM

To simplify device configuration, Silicon Labs has released the ClockBuilder Desktop. The software serves two purposes: to configure the Si5351 with optimal configuration based on the desired frequencies and to control the EVB when connected to a host PC.

The optimal configuration can be saved from the software in text files that can be used in any system, which configures the device over I runs on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7.

Once the configuration file has been saved, the device can be progr am med via I Figure 12.

The Si5351 is a versatile clock generator which serves a wide variety of applications. The following examples show how it can be used to replace crystals, crystal oscillators, VCXOs, and PLLs.

5.3. Replacing Crystals and Crystal Oscillators

Using an inexpensive external crystal, the Si5351A can generate up to 8 different free-running clock frequencies for replacing crystals and crystal oscillators. A 3-output version packaged in a small 10-MSOP is also available for applications that require fewer clocks. An example is shown in Figure 13.

The Si5351 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 the figure below 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. See register setting CLKx_INV.

6. Design Considerations

The Si5351 is a self-contained clock generator that requires very few external components. The following general guidelines are recommended to ensure optimum performance. Refer to “AN554: Si5350/51 PCB Layout Guide” for additional layout recommendations.

6.1. Power Supply Decoupling/Filtering

The Si5351 has built-in power supply filtering circuitry and extensive internal Low Drop Out (LDO) voltage regulators to help minimize the number of external bypass components. All that is recommended is one 0.1 µF decoupling capacitor per power supply pin. This capacitor should be mounted as close to the VDD and VDDOx pins as possible without using vias.

6.2. 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. If a minimum output-to-output skew is important, then all VDDOx must be applied before VDD. Unused VDDOx pins should be tied to VDD.

6.3. 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.

6.4. External Crystal Load Capacitors

The Si5351 provides the option of using internal and external crystal load capacitors. If internal load capacitance is insufficient, capacitors of value < capacitors are used, they should be placed as close to the XA/XB pads as possible. See AN554 for more details.

2 pF may be used to increased equivalent load capacitance. If external load

6.5. Unused Pins

Unused voltage control pin should be tied to GND. Unused CLKIN pin should be tied to GND. Unused XA/XB pins should be left floating. Refer to "5.6. Replacing a Crystal with a Clock" on page 20 when using

XA as a clock input pin. Unused output pins (CLK0–CLK7) should be left floating. Unused VDDOx pins should be tied to VDD.
