Additional Details:
The SI5335D-B07584-GM utilizes a digital PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) to synthesize the output frequencies from a reference clock. It is programmable via an I2C or SPI interface, allowing configuration of the output frequencies, output enable/disable, and other parameters. The 'B07584' part of the number is a factory programmed configuration, so the datasheet must be consulted for the specific frequency plan, voltage and temperature range. The 'GM' typically denotes package type and temperature range.
Proper PCB layout practices are crucial for achieving optimal jitter performance. This includes minimizing trace lengths, using controlled impedance traces, and providing adequate power supply decoupling. Skyworks provides recommendations in the datasheet for proper usage. The device is typically powered by 1.8V or 3.3V.
