The Si5338C-B05079-GMR is a highly-integrated programmable clock generator, which can produce up to seven clock outputs with a guaranteed accuracy of less than 0.05 ppm. The Si5338C-B05079-GMR can drive clock signals with a maximum output of up to 4.2 V peak-to-peak (2.1 V low-side). The device features a wide range of features, such as spread-spectrum modulation and amplitude modulation, which can be enabled or disabled via an I2C bus.

The Si5338C-B05079-GMR has a wide range of application fields, including embedded systems, consumer electronics, networking equipment, and more. The device can be used in a variety of different scenarios, such as providing accurate timing signals for digital audio and video systems, providing synchronisation of high-speed networks, or providing time and frequency synchronization for distributed systems. It is also an excellent choice for applications that require jitter reduction and low EMI.

The working principles of the Si5338C-B05079-GMR are based on its integrated circuit (IC) design. The IC is highly configurable and can be used to create multiple output clock sources, with each output having adjustable output frequency and voltage. A wide range of input frequencies can be used as the reference clock, ranging from 32 kHz to 533 MHz. The Si5338C-B05079-GMR provides several options for the type of output clock – LVPECL, LVDS, and CMOS – as well as the ability to modulate the output frequency to reduce EMI.

The Si5338C-B05079-GMR also features spread-spectrum modulation, which is a technique used to reduce the effects of Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). This is done by adding a slight frequency modulation (FM) to the output signal, resulting in a signal that is less susceptible to noise. The Si5338C-B05079-GMR also features an integrated phase-locked loop (PLL) that can be used to generate custom output frequencies. This feature makes it possible to generate highly precise output frequencies that are locked to the reference clock signal.

Overall, the Si5338C-B05079-GMR is a versatile device that can be used in a wide range of applications, from embedded systems and consumer electronics to networking equipment and distributed systems. The device offers high performance, low jitter, and low EMI, making it an ideal choice for clock and timing applications.
