Guide
The Si5348-E-EVB is used for evaluating the Si5348 Network Synchronizer Clock for
SyncE/1588 and Stratum 3/3E applications. The device revision is distinguished by a
white 1 inch x 0.187 inch label with the text “SI5348-E-EB” in the lower left-hand corner
of the board. (For ordering purposes only, the terms “EB” and “EVB” refer to the board
and the kit respectively. In this document, the terms are synonymous in context.) The
Si5348 contains three independent DSPLLs in a single IC with programmable jitter at-
tenuation bandwidth on a per DSPLL basis. The Si5348-E-EVB supports three inde-
pendent differential input clocks, two independent CMOS input clocks, and seven inde-
pendent output clocks via onboard SMA connectors. The Si5348-E-EVB can be con-
trolled and configured via a USB connection to a host PC running Silicon Labs’ next
generation Clock Builder Pro™ (CBPro™) software tool. Test points are provided on-
board for external monitoring of supply voltages.
The device revision is distinguished by a white 1 inch x 0.187 inch label with the text
“SI5348-E-EB” installed in the lower left hand corner of the board. (For ordering purpo-
ses only, the terms “EB” and “EVB” refer to the board and the kit respectively. For the
purpose of this document, the terms are synonymous in context.
This kit comes with an OCXO board SiOCXO1-EB as well as a TCXO board SiTCXO1-
EB. The OCXO or the TCXO are used on the reference input (REF) of the Si5348 to
evaluate the holdover stability of the network synchronizer clock. Both boards are not
needed at the same time, but they are both included in the kit to provide a comparison
of the resulting performance.

4. External Reference Input (XA/XB)
An external timing reference (48 MHz XTAL) is used in combination with the internal oscillator to produce an ultra-low jitter reference
clock for the DSPLL and for providing a stable reference for the free-run and holdover modes. The Si5348-E-EVB can also accommo-
date an external reference clock instead of a crystal. To evaluate the device with an external REFCLK, C111 and C113 must be popula-
ted and XTAL Y1 removed (see figure below). The REFCLK can then be applied to SMA connectors J39 and J40.

5. Clock Input and Output Circuits
5.1 Clock Input Circuits (REF/REFB, IN0/IN0B-IN2/IN2B, IN3, IN4)
The Si5348-E-EVB has eight SMA connectors (REF/REFB, IN0/IN0B–IN2/IN2B) for receiving external differential clock signals. The
REF/REFB differential input clock is intended to support a TCXO or OCXO, such as the included SiOCXO1-EB or the included SiTC-
XO1-EB, which determines the Si5348’s wander performance. (Please note that this input clock is different from the optional reference
clock that may be applied at XA/XB.) All differential input clocks are terminated as shown in the figure below. The only exception is that
the terminating 49.9 Ω resistor for REF is not installed. This is R84 corresponding to IN0's R76 in the figure below. The reason for this
exception is that single-ended TCXOs and OCXOs typically cannot drive a 50 Ω load. Note that input clocks are ac-coupled and 50 Ω
terminated. This represents four differential input clock pairs. Single-ended clocks can be used by appropriately driving one side of the
differential pair with a single-ended clock. For details on how to configure inputs as single-ended, please refer to the Si5348 data sheet
or reference manual.
Figure 5.1. Differential Input Clock Termination Circuit
In addition, the Si5348-E-EVB supports two SMA connectors (IN3, IN4) for receiving external single-ended LVCMOS clocks. Each of
these clocks connects to its respective Si5348 pins via a single installed 0 Ω resistor. There are no other termination components on
the EVB.

Clock Input and Output Circuits

5.2 Clock Output Circuits (OUTx/OUTxB)
Each of the 14 output drivers (seven differential pairs, OUT0/OUT0B—OUT6/OUT6B) is ac-coupled to its respective SMA connector.
The output clock termination circuit is shown in the figure below. The output signal will have no dc bias. If dc coupling is required, the ac
coupling capacitors can be replaced with a resistor of appropriate value. In particular, if differential pair OUT6/OUT6B is configured for 1
Hz output, then the AC coupling output capacitors, C166 and C168, each need to be replaced by a 0 Ω resistor. (These capacitors are
the respective counterparts of the OUT0/OUT0B output capacitors, C25 and C27, in the figure below.) The Si5348-E-EVB provides
pads for optional output termination resistors and/or low-frequency capacitors. Note that components with schematic “NI” designation
are not normally populated on the Si5348-E-EVB and provide locations on the PCB for optional dc/ac terminations by the end user.

6. Using the Si5348-E-EVB and Installing ClockBuilderPro (CBPro) Desktop Software
6.1 Installing ClockBuilderPro (CBPro) Desktop Software
To install the CBPro software on any Windows 7 (or above) PC:
Go to http://www.silabs.com/CBPro and download ClockBuilderPro software.
Installation instructions and User’s Guide for ClockBuilder can be found at the download link shown above. Please follow the instruc-
tions as indicated.
6.2 Connecting the EVB to Your Host PC
Once ClockBuilderPro software is installed, connect to the EVB with a USB cable as shown below.
Figure 6.1. EVB Connection Diagram
6.3 Additional Power Supplies
The Si5348-EB comes pre-configured with jumpers installed at JP15 and JP16 (pins 1–2 in both cases) in order to select “USB”. These
jumpers, together with the components installed, configure the evaluation board to obtain all +5 V power solely through the main USB
connector at J37. This setup is the default configuration and should normally be sufficient.
The general guidelines for single USB power supply operation are listed below:
• Use either a USB 3.0 or USB 2.0 port. These ports are specified to supply 900 mA and 500 mA respectively at +5 V.
• If you are working with a USB 2.0 port and you are current limited, turn off enough DUT output voltage regulators to drop the total
DUT current ≤ 470 mA. (Note: USB 2.0 ports may supply > 500 mA. Provided the nominal +5 V drops gracefully by less than 10%,
the EVB will still work.)
• If you are working with a USB 2.0 and you are current limited and need all output clock drivers enabled, re-configure the EVB to
drive the DUT output voltage regulators from an external +5 V power supply as follows:
• Connect external +5 V power supply to terminal block J33 on the back side of the PCB.
• Move the jumper at JP15 from pins 1–2 USB to pins 2–3 EXT.
