2. Typical Application
2.1. Si5350A Replaces Multiple Clocks and XOs
The Si5350A is a user-definable custom clock generator that is ideally suited for replacing crystals and crystal
oscillators in cost-sensitive applications. An example application is shown in
Figure 1.

2.2. Replacing a Crystal with a Clock
The Si5350A can be driven with a clock signal through the XA input pin.

2.3. HCSL Compatible Outputs
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 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.

3. Functional Description
The Si5350A’s synthesis architecture consists of two high-frequency PLLs in addition to one high-resolution
fractional MultiSynth
TM
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 generate up to eight independent, non-integer-related
frequencies at any of its outputs. Each MultiSynth
TM
is configurable with two frequencies (F1_x, F2_x). This allows
a pin controlled glitchless frequency change at each output (CLK0 to CLK5).
