Advantages Over Alternative Timing Solutions

The LMK05318BRGZT outperforms conventional clock generators and discrete timing circuits, starting with its ultra-low 150fs jitter??up to 10x better than standard solutions (1.5ps+). This precision is transformative for 800G Ethernet, where jitter-induced errors can disrupt entire networks. “We reduced bit error rates by 95% in our 800G transceivers after adopting this generator,” notes a senior engineer at a leading optical module manufacturer.

Compared to discrete PLL-oscillator combinations, its integrated design with 12 configurable outputs reduces component count by 80%, eliminating timing mismatches between separate parts. This integration, paired with the compact VQFN-64 package (9mm??9mm), slashes PCB space by 65%??critical for dense 1U data center switches and 800G transceiver modules.

Its 2.5V?C3.3V range supports both low-power (2.5V FPGAs) and standard (3.3V transceivers) systems, avoiding the need for voltage regulators. This versatility simplifies design in mixed-voltage environments like 5G base stations, where diverse components demand synchronized timing.

Dual PLLs enable flexible frequency translation (e.g., converting 100MHz to 3GHz), supporting multi-standard systems without redesign. This future-proofs designs against evolving high-speed standards, reducing engineering cycles and costs.

Sıkça Sorulan Sorular (SSS)

What is a clock generator, and how does the LMK05318BRGZT work?

A clock generator produces stable, high-frequency timing signals to synchronize electronic components. The LMK05318BRGZT uses dual PLLs to lock onto a 10MHz?C1.5GHz reference input, filter out noise, and output 12 configurable clocks (up to 3GHz) with ultra-low jitter. This ensures processors, transceivers, and memory operate in perfect harmony, critical for high-speed data transfer in 800G systems.

Why is 150fs jitter important for 800G Ethernet?

150fs jitter is 10x lower than the 1.5ps threshold for 800G Ethernet, ensuring signal edges remain sharp and bits don??t overlap. Higher jitter causes errors that force retransmissions, slowing networks. This ultra-low jitter enables 800G links to operate at 99.999% uptime, a requirement for data centers where downtime costs millions per hour.

How does the VQFN-64 package benefit dense designs?

The VQFN-64??s 9mm??9mm footprint and 0.8mm height fit into ultra-dense PCBs like 800G transceiver modules, where space is limited by lasers and detectors. Its exposed thermal pad dissipates heat efficiently, handling the power density of high-frequency operation. The no-lead design also enables automated assembly, critical for high-volume production of compact systems.

What role do dual PLLs play in the LMK05318BRGZT?

Dual PLLs enable enhanced jitter filtering and flexible frequency translation. One PLL cleans the input clock, while the second translates it to higher frequencies (e.g., 100MHz to 3GHz), supporting multi-standard systems. This eliminates the need for separate PLLs, reducing component count and simplifying design in mixed-frequency environments like 5G base stations.

How does this generator improve optical transceiver performance?

Optical transceivers rely on precise timing to convert electrical signals to light. The LMK05318BRGZT??s low jitter ensures consistent signal edges, reducing bit errors in the optical link. In 400G/800G transceivers, this translates to longer reach (up to 20km more) and fewer retransmissions, improving network efficiency and lowering operational costs.
