SYNCHRONOUS ETHERNET/TELECOM JITTER ATTENUATING
CLOCK MULTIPLIER
Features
Applications
Description
The Si5315 is a jitter-attenuating clock multiplier for Gb and 10G Synchronous
Ethernet, SONET/SDH, and PDH (T1/E1) applications. The Si5315 supports SyncE
EEC options 1 and 2 when paired with a timing card that implements the required
wander filter. The Si5315 accepts dual clock inputs ranging from 8 kHz to 644.53 MHz
and generates two equal frequency-multiplied clock outputs ranging from 8 kHz to
644.53 MHz. The input clock frequency and clock multiplication ratio are selectable
from a table of popular SyncE and T1/E1 rates. The Si5315 is based on Silicon
Laboratories' third-generation DSPLL® technology, which provides any-frequency
synthesis and jitter attenuation in a highly integrated PLL solution that eliminates the
need for external VCXO and loop filter components. The DSPLL loop bandwidth is
user programmable, providing jitter performance optimization at the application level.

Any resistor pack may be used.
The Panasonic EXB-D10C183J is an example.
PCB layout is not critical.
Resistor packs are only needed if the leakage current of the external driver exceeds the listed currents.
If a pin is tied to ground or VDD, no resistors are needed.
If a pin is left open (no connect), no resistors are needed.

3. System Level Overview
The Si5315 provides clock translation, jitter attenuation, and clock distribution for high-performance Synchronous
Ethernet* line card timing applications.
*Note: The Si5315 supports SyncE EEC options 1 and 2 when paired with a timing card that implements the required wander
filtering and Stratum 3 compliant reference clock. For detailed information, refer to “AN420: SyncE and IEEE 1588: Sync
Distribution for a Unified Network”.
The Si5315 provides clock translation, jitter attenuation, and clock distribution for high-performance Synchronous
Ethernet line card timing applications. The device accepts two clock inputs ranging from 8 kHz to 644.53 MHz and
generates two equal frequency, low jitter clock outputs ranging from 8 kHz to 644.53 MHz. For ease of use, the
Si5315 is pin controlled to enable simple device configuration of frequency plans, PLL loop bandwidth, and input
clock selection. The DSPLL locks to one of two input reference clocks and provides over 200 frequency
translations to synchronize output clocks for Ethernet, SONET/SDH, and PDH line cards. The Si5315 implements
internal state machines to control hitless switching between input clocks and holdover. Status alarms, loss of signal
(LOS) and loss of lock (LOL) are provided on output pins to indicate a change in device status.
This device is designed for systems with line cards that are synchronized to a redundant, centralized telecom or
Ethernet backplane. The Si5315 synchronizes to backplane clocks and generates a multiplied, jitter attenuated
Ethernet/SONET/SDH clock or PDH clock. A typical system application is shown in Figure 6. The Si5315
translates a 19.44 MHz clock from the telecom backplane to an Ethernet or SONET/SDH clock frequency to the
PHY and filters the jitter to ensure compliance with related ITU-T and Telcordia standards.

Figure 7. Detailed Block Diagram
4.1. Overview
The Si5315 is a jitter-attenuating precision clock multiplier for Synchronous Ethernet, SONET/SDH, and PDH
(T1/E1) applications. The Si5315 accepts dual clock inputs ranging from 8 kHz to 644.53 MHz and generates two
frequency-multiplied clock outputs ranging from 8 kHz to 644.53 MHz. The two input clocks are at the same
frequency and the two output clocks are at the same frequency. The input clock frequency and clock multiplication
ratio are selectable from a look up table of popular SyncE and T1/E1 rates.
The Si5315 is based on Silicon Laboratories' 3rd-generation DSPLL® technology, which provides any-frequency
synthesis and jitter attenuation in a highly integrated PLL solution that eliminates the need for external VCXO and
loop filter components. The Si5315 PLL loop bandwidth is selectable via the BWSEL[1:0] pins and supports a
range from 60 to 8.4 kHz.
The Si5315 supports hitless switching between the two input clocks in compliance with ITU-T G.8262 and Telcordia
GR-253-CORE and GR-1244-CORE. This feature greatly minimizes the propagation of phase transients to the
clock outputs during an input clock transition (<200 ps typ). Manual and automatic revertive and non-revertive input
clock switching options are available via the AUTOSEL input pin. The Si5315 monitors both input clocks for loss-of-
signal and provides a LOS alarm when it detects missing pulses on either input clock. The device monitors the lock
status of the PLL. The lock detect algorithm works by continuously monitoring the phase of the input clock in
relation to the phase of the feedback clock. The Si5315 provides a holdover capability that allows the device to
continue generation of a stable output clock when the selected input reference is lost.
The Si5315 has two differential clock outputs. The signal format of the clock outputs is programmable to support
LVPECL, LVDS, CML, or CMOS loads. The second clock output can be powered down to minimize power
consumption. For system-level debugging, a bypass mode is available which drives the output clock directly from
the input clock, bypassing the internal DSPLL. The device operates from a single 1.8, 2.5, or 3.3 V supply.

4.2. PLL Performance
The Si5315 provides extremely low jitter generation, a well-controlled jitter transfer function, and high jitter
tolerance due to the high level of integration.
4.2.1. Jitter Generation
Jitter generation is defined as the amount of jitter produced at the output of the device with a jitter free input clock.
Generated jitter arises from sources within the VCO and other PLL components. Jitter generation is a function of
the PLL bandwidth setting. Higher loop bandwidth settings may result in lower jitter generation, but may result in
less attenuation of jitter that might be present on the input clock signal.
4.2.2. Jitter Transfer
Jitter transfer is defined as the ratio of output signal jitter to input signal jitter for a specified jitter frequency. The
jitter transfer characteristic determines the amount of input clock jitter that passes to the outputs. The DSPLL
technology used in the Si5315 provides tightly controlled jitter transfer curves because the PLL gain parameters
are determined largely by digital circuits which do not vary over supply voltage, process, and temperature. In a
system application, a well-controlled transfer curve minimizes the output clock jitter variation from board to board
and provides more consistent system level jitter performance.
The jitter transfer characteristic is a function of the loop bandwidth setting. Lower bandwidth settings result in more
jitter attenuation of the incoming clock, but may result in higher jitter generation. Figure 8 shows the jitter transfer
curve mask.

4.2.3. Jitter Tolerance
Jitter tolerance is defined as the maximum peak-to-peak sinusoidal jitter that can be present on the incoming clock
before the DSPLL loses lock. The tolerance is a function of the jitter frequency, because tolerance improves for
lower input jitter frequency.
The jitter tolerance of the DSPLL is a function of the loop bandwidth setting. Figure 9 shows the general shape of
the jitter tolerance curve versus input jitter frequency. For jitter frequencies above the loop bandwidth, the tolerance
is a constant value Aj0. Beginning at the PLL bandwidth, the tolerance increases at a rate of 20 dB/decade for
lower input jitter frequencies.
Figure 9. Jitter Tolerance Mask/Template
The equation for the high frequency jitter tolerance can be expressed as a function of the PLL loop bandwidth
(i.e., BW):
For example, the jitter tolerance when fin = 19.44 MHz, fout = 161.13 MHz and the loop bandwidth (BW) is 113 Hz:
4.2.4. Jitter Attenuation Performance
The Internal VCO uses the reference clock on the XA/XB pins as its reference for jitter attenuation. The XA/XB pins
support either a crystal input or an input buffer single-ended or differential clock input, such that an external
oscillator can become the reference source. In either case, the device accepts a wide margin in absolute frequency
of the reference input. (See 5.5. "Holdover Mode" on page 32.) In holdover, the Si5315's output clock stability
matches the reference supplied on the XA/XB pins. The external crystal or reference clock must be selected based
on the stability requirements of the application if holdover is a key requirement.
However, care must be exercised in certain areas for optimum performance. For examples of connections to the
XA/XB pins, refer to 7. "Crystal/Reference Clock Input" on page 38.

5. Frequency Plan Tables
For ease of use, the Si5315 is pin controlled to enable simple device configuration of the frequency plan and PLL
loop bandwidth via a predefined look up table. The DSPLL has been optimized for each frequency multiplication
and PLL loop bandwidth provided in Table 9 on page 20.
Many of the control inputs are three levels: High, Low, and Medium. High and Low are standard voltage levels
determined by the supply voltage: VDD and Ground. If the input pin is left floating, it is driven to nominally half of
VDD. Effectively, this creates three logic levels for these controls. See 1.2. "Three-Level (3L) Input Pins (With
External Resistors)" on page 12 and 8. "Power Supply Filtering" on page 41 for additional information.
5.1. Frequency Multiplication Plan
The input to output clock multiplication is set by the 3-level FRQSEL[3:0] pins. The device provides a wide range of
commonly used SyncE, SONET/SDH, and PDH frequency translations. The CKIN1 and CKIN2 inputs must be the
same frequency as specified in Table 9. Both CKOUT1 and CKOUT2 outputs are at the same frequency.
5.1.1. PLL Loop Bandwidth Plan
The Si5315's loop bandwidth ranges from 60 Hz to 8.4 kHz. For each frequency multiplication, its corresponding
loop bandwidth is provided in a simple look up table. (See Table 9 on page 20.) The loop bandwidth (BW) is
digitally programmable using the 3-level BWSEL [1:0] and FRQTBL input pins.

5.2. PLL Self-Calibration
An internal self-calibration (ICAL) is performed before operation to optimize loop parameters and jitter
performance. While the self-calibration is being performed, the DSPLL is being internally controlled by the self-
calibration state machine. The LOL alarm will be active during ICAL. The self-calibration time tLOCKHW is given in
Table 3, “AC Characteristics”.
Any of the following events will trigger a self-calibration:
Power-on-reset (POR)
Release of the external reset pin RST (transition of RST from 0 to 1)
Change in FRQSEL, FRQTBL, BWSEL, or XTAL/CLOCK pins
Internal DSPLL registers out-of-range, indicating the need to relock the DSPLL
In any of the above cases, an internal self-calibration will be initiated if a valid input clock exists (no input alarm)
and is selected as the active clock at that time. The external crystal or reference clock must also be present for the
self-calibration to begin. If valid clocks are not present, the self-calibration state machine will wait until they appear,
at which time the calibration will start. An output clock will be active while waiting for a valid input clock. The output
clock frequency is based on the VCO range determine by FRQSEL and FRQTBL settings. This output clock will
vary by ±20%. If no output clock is desired prior to an ICAL, then the SFOUT pins should be kept at LM for
1.2 seconds until the output clock is stable.
After a successful self-calibration has been performed with a valid input clock, no subsequent self calibrations are
performed unless one of the above conditions are met. If the input clock is lost following self-calibration, the device
enters holdover mode. When the input clock returns, the device relocks to the input clock without performing a self-
calibration.
5.2.1. Input Clock Stability during Internal Self-Calibration
An exit from reset must occur when the selected CKINn clock is stable in frequency with a frequency value that is
within the device operating range. The other CKINs must also either be stable in frequency or squelched during a
reset.
5.2.2. Self-Calibration ca used by Changes in Input Frequency
If the selected CKINn varies by 500 ppm or more in frequency since the last calibration, the device may initiate a
self-calibration.
5.2.3. Device Reset
Upon powerup, the device internally executes a power-on-reset (POR) which resets the internal device logic. The
pin RST can also be used to initiate a reset. The device stays in this state until a valid CKINn is present, when it
then performs a PLL Self-Calibration (See 5.2. "PLL Self-Calibration”).
5.2.4. Recommended Reset Guidelines
Follow the recommended RESET guidelines in Table 10 when reset should be applied to a device.

5.2.5. Hitless Switching with Phase Build-Out
Silicon Laboratories switching technology performs "phase build-out" to minimize the propagation of phase
transients to the clock outputs during input clock switching. All switching between input clocks occurs within the
input multiplexor and phase detector circuitry. The phase detector circuitry continually monitors the phase
difference between each input clock and the DSPLL output clock, fOSC. The phase detector circuitry can lock to a
clock signal at a specified phase offset relative to fOSC so that the phase offset is maintained by the PLL circuitry.
At the time a clock switch occurs, the phase detector circuitry knows both the input-to-output phase relationship for
the original input clock and for the new input clock. The phase detector circuitry locks to the new input clock at the
new clock's phase offset so that the phase of the output clock is not disturbed. The phase difference between the
two input clocks is absorbed in the phase detector's offset value, rather than being propagated to the clock output.
The switching technology virtually eliminates the output clock phase transients traditionally associated with clock
rearrangement (input clock switching). The Maximum Time Interval Error (MTIE) and maximum slope for clock
output phase transients during clock switching are given in (Table 3, “AC Characteristics”). These values fall
significantly below the limits specified in the ITU-T G.8262, Telcordia GR-1244-CORE, and GR-253-CORE
requirements.
5.3. Input Clock Control
This section describes the clock selection capabilities (manual input selection, automatic input selection, hitless
switching, and revertive switching). When switching between two clocks, LOL may temporarily go high if the two
clocks differ in frequency by more than 100 ppm.
5.3.1. Manual Clock Selection
Manual control of input clock selection is chosen via the CS_CA pin according to Table 11 and Table 12.
5.3.2. Automa ti c Clo c k Sel ec ti on
The AUTOSEL input pin sets the input clock selection mode as shown in Table 11. Automatic switching is either
revertive or non-revertive. Setting AUTOSEL to M or H, changes the CS_CA pin to an output pin that indicates the
state of the automatic clock selection.

Rev. 1.0 31
The prioritization of clock inputs for automatic switching is shown in Table 14. This priority is hardwired in the
devices.
At power-on or reset, the valid CKINn with the highest priority (1 being the highest priority) is automatically
selected. If no valid CKINn is available, the device suppresses the output clocks and waits for a valid CKINn signal.
If the currently selected CKINn goes into an alarm state, the next valid CKINn in priority order is selected. If no valid
CKINn is available, the device enters holdover.
Operation in revertive and non- revertive is different when a signal becomes valid:
Revertive (AUTOSEL = H): The device constantly monitors all CKINn. If a CKINn with a higher priority than
the current active CKINn becomes valid, the active CKINn is changed to the
CKINn with the highest priority.
Non-revertive (AUTOSEL = M): The active clock does not change until there is an alarm on the active clock. The
device will then select the highest priority CKINn that is valid. Once in holdover,
the device will switch to the first CKINn that becomes valid.
5.4. Alarms
Summary alarms are available to indicate the overall status of the input signals. Alarm outputs stay high until all the
alarm conditions for that alarm output are cleared.
5.4.1. Loss-of-Signal
The device has loss-of-signal circuitry that continuously monitors CKINn for missing pulses. The LOS circuitry
generates an internal LOSn_INT output signal that is processed with other alarms to generate LOS1 and LOS2.
An LOS condition on CKIN1 causes the internal LOS1_INT alarm to become active. Similarly, an LOS condition on
CKINn causes the LOSn_INT alarm to become active. Once a LOSn_INT alarm is asserted on one of the input
clocks, it remains asserted until that input clock is validated over a designated time period. The time to clear
LOSn_INT after a valid input clock appears is listed in Table 3, “AC Characteristics”. If another error condition on
the same input clock is detected during the validation time then the alarm remains asserted and the validation time
starts over.
5.4.1.1. LOS Algorithm
The LOS circuitry divides down each input clock to produce an 8 kHz to 2 MHz signal. The LOS circuitry over
samples this divided down input clock using a 40 MHz clock to search for extended periods of time without input
clock transitions. If the LOS monitor detects twice the normal number of samples without a clock edge, a
LOSn_INT alarm is declared. Table 3, “AC Characteristics” gives the minimum and maximum amount of time for
the LOS monitor to trigger.
5.4.1.2. Lock Detect
The PLL lock detection algorithm indicates the lock status on the LOL output pin. The algorithm works by
continuously monitoring the phase of the input clock in relation to the phase of the feedback clock. If the time
between two consecutive phase cycle slips is greater than the retrigger time, the PLL is in lock. The LOL output
has a guaranteed minimum pulse width as shown in (Table 3, “AC Characteristics”). The LOL pin is also held in the
active state during an internal PLL calibration. The retrigger time is automatically set based on the PLL closed loop
bandwidth (See Table 15).

3 Holdover
Si5315
32 Rev. 1.0
5.5. Holdover Mode
If an LOS condition exists on the selected input clock, the device enters holdover. In this mode, the device provides
a stable output frequency until the input clock returns and is validated. When the device enters holdover, the
internal oscillator is initially held to its last frequency value. Next, the internal oscillator slowly transitions to a
historical average frequency value that was taken over a time window of 6,711 ms in size that ended 26 ms before
the device entered holdover. This frequency value is taken from an internal memory location that keeps a record of
previous DSPLL frequency values. By using a historical average frequency, input clock phase and frequency
transients that may occur immediately preceding loss of clock or any event causing holdover do not affect the
holdover frequency. Also, noise related to input clock jitter or internal PLL jitter is minimized.
If a highly stable reference, such as an oven-controlled crystal oscillator, is supplied at XA/XB, an extremely stable
holdover can be achieved. If a crystal is supplied at the XA/XB port, the holdover stability will be limited by the
stability of the crystal; Table 3, “AC Characteristics” gives the specifications related to the holdover function.
5.5.1. Recovery from Holdover
When the input clock signal returns, the device transitions from holdover to the selected input clock. The device
performs hitless recovery from holdover. The clock transition from holdover to the returned input clock includes
"phase buildout" to absorb the phase difference between the holdover clock phase and the input clock phase. See
Table 3, “AC Characteristics” for specifications.
5.6. PLL Bypass Mode
The Si5315 supports a PLL bypass mode in which the selected input clock is fed directly to both enabled output
buffers, bypassing the DSPLL. Internally, the bypass path is implemented with high-speed differential signaling;
however, this path is not a low jitter path and will see significantly higher jitter on CKOUT. In PLL bypass mode, the
input and output clocks will be at the same frequency. PLL bypass mode is useful in a laboratory environment to
measure system performance with and without the jitter attenuation provided by the DSPLL. The DSBL2_BY pin is
used to select the PLL Bypass Mode according to Table 16. Bypass mode is not supported for CMOS clock outputs
(SFOUT = LH).

6.1. Input Clock Buffers
The Si5315 provides differential inputs for the CKINn clock inputs. These inputs are internally biased to a common
mode voltage [see Table 2, “DC Characteristics”] and can be driven by either a single-ended or differential source.
Figure 11 through Figure 14 show typical interface circuits for LVPECL, CML, LVDS, or CMOS input clocks. Note
that the jitter generation improves for higher levels on CKINn (within the limits in Table 3, “AC Characteristics”).
AC coupling the input clocks is recommended because it removes any issue with common mode input voltages.
However, either ac or dc coupling is acceptable. Figures 11 and 12 show various examples of different input
termination arrangements. Unused inputs can be left unconnected.

6.2. Output Clock Drivers
The Si5315 has a flexible output driver structure that can drive a variety of loads, including LVPECL, LVDS, CML,
and CMOS formats. The signal format is selected for both CKOUT1 and CKOUT2 outputs using the SFOUT [1:0]
pins. This modifies the output common mode and differential signal swing. See Table 2, “DC Characteristics” for
output driver specifications. The SFOUT [1:0] pins are three-level input pins, with the states designated as L
(ground), M (VDD/2), and H (VDD). Table 17 shows the signal formats based on the supply voltage and the type of
load being driven.
Figure 15. Typical Differential Output Circuit
Figure 16. Typical CMOS Output Circuit (Tie CKOUTn+ and CKOUTn– Together)
For the CMOS setting (SFOUT = LH), both output pins drive single-ended in-phase signals. The CKOUT+/- can be
externally shorted together for greater drive strength specified in Table 2, “DC Characteristics”.

The SFOUT [1:0] pins can also be used to disable both outputs. Disabling the output puts the CKOUTn+ and
CKOUTn– pins in a high-impedance state relative to VDD (common mode tri-state) while the two outputs remain
connected to each other through a 200 on-chip resistance (differential impedance of 200 ). The maximum
amount of internal circuitry is powered down, minimizing power consumption and noise generation. Recovery from
the disable mode requires additional time as specified in Table 3, “AC Characteristics”.

7. Crystal/Reference Clock Input
The device can use an external crystal or external clock as a reference. If an external clock is used, it must be ac
coupled. With appropriate buffers, the same external reference clock can be applied to CKINn. Although the
reference clock input can be driven single ended (See Figure 18), the best performance is with a crystal or low
jitter, differential clock source. No external loading capacitors are required for normal crystal operation.

7.1. Crystal/Reference Clock Selection
The Si5315 requires either a low-jitter external oscillator or a low-cost fundamental mode crystal to be connected to
its XA/XB pins. This serves both as a jitter reference for jitter attenuation and as a reference oscillator for stability
during holdover. The frequency the reference is not directly related to either the input or the output clock
frequencies. The range of the reference frequency is from 37 to 41 MHz. For recommendations on the selection of
the reference frequency and a list of approved crystals, see the application note AN591 which can be downloaded
from www.silabs.com/timing/.
In holdover, the DSPLL remains locked to this external reference. Any changes in the frequency of this reference
when the DSPLL is in holdover will be tracked by the output of the device. Note that crystals can have temperature
sensitivities. Table 18 shows how the XTAL/CLOCK pin is used to select between a crystal and an external
oscillator.
Because the crystal is used as a jitter reference, rapid changes of the crystal temperature can temporarily disturb
the output phase and frequency. For example, it is recommended that the crystal not be placed close to a fan that
is being turned off and on. If a situation such as this is unavoidable, the crystal should be thermally isolated with an
insulating cover.
7.1.1. Reference Drift
During holdover, long-term and temperature related drift of the reference input result in a one-to-one drift of the
output frequency. That is, the stability of the any-frequency output is identical to the drift of the reference frequency.
This means that for the most demanding applications where the drift of a crystal is not acceptable, an external
temperature compensated or ovenized oscillator will be required. Drift is not an issue unless the part is in holdover.
Also, the initial accuracy of the reference oscillator (or crystal) is not relevant.

7.1.2. Reference Jitter
Jitter on the reference input has a roughly one-to-one transfer function to the output jitter over the bandwidth
ranging from 100 Hz up to 30 kHz. If a crystal is used on the XA/XB pins, the reference will have low jitter if a
suitable crystal is in use. If the XA/XB pins are connected to an external reference oscillator, the jitter of the
external reference oscillator may contribute significantly to the output jitter.
A typical reference input-to-output jitter transfer function is shown in Figure 21.

8. Power Supply Filtering
This device incorporates an on-chip voltage regulator with excellent PSRR to power the device from a supply
voltage of 1.8, 2.5, or 3.3 V. The device requires minimal supply decoupling and no stringent layout or ground plane
islands. Internal core circuitry is driven from the output of this regulator while I/O circuitry uses the external supply
voltage directly. Table 3, “AC Characteristics” gives the sensitivity of the on-chip oscillator to changes in the supply
voltage. Refer to the Si5315 evaluation board for an example.

9. Typical Phase Noise Plots
The following is a typical phase noise plot. The clock input source was a Rohde and Schwarz model SML03 RF
Generator. The spectrum analyzer was either an Agilent model E5052B, model E4400A or model JS-500. The
Si5315 operates at 3.3 V with an ac coupled differential PECL output and an ac coupled differential sine wave input
from the RF generator at 0 dBm. Note that, as with any PLL, the output jitter that is below the loop BW is caused by
the jitter at the input clock, not the Si5315. Except as noted, loop BWs of 60 to 240 Hz were in use.
