Architecture Overview
Based on SiTime’s innovative Elite Platform™, the SiT5157
delivers exceptional dynamic performance, i.e. resilience to
environmental stressors such as shock, vibration, and fast
temperature transients. Underpinning the Elite platform are
SiTime’s unique DualMEMS™ temperature sensing
architecture and TurboCompensationtechnologies.
DualMEMS is a noiseless temperature compensation
scheme. It consists of two MEMS resonators fabricated on
the same die substrate. The TempFlatMEMS resonator is
designed with a flat frequency characteristic over
temperature whereas the temperature sensing resonator is
by design sensitive to temperature changes. The ratio of
frequencies between these two resonators provides an
accurate reading of the resonator temperature with 20 µK
resolution.
By placing the two MEMS resonators on the same die, this
temperature sensing scheme eliminates any thermal lag and
gradients between resonator and temperature sensor,
thereby overcoming an inherent weakness of legacy quartz
TCXOs.
The DualMEMS temperature sensor drives a state-of-the-
art CMOS temperature compensation circuit. The
TurboCompensation design, with >100 Hz compensation
bandwidth, achieves a dynamic frequency stability that is far
superior to any quartz TCXO. The digital temperature
compensation enables additional optimization of frequency
stability and frequency slope over temperature within any
chosen temperature range for a given system design.
The Elite platform also incorporates a high resolution, low
noise frequency synthesizer along with the industry standard
I2C bus. This unique combination enables system designers
to digitally control the output frequency in steps as low as 5
ppt and over a wide range up to ±3200 ppm.

Functional Overview
The SiT5157 is designed for maximum flexibility with an
array of factory programmable options, enabling system
designers to configure this precision device for optimal
performance in a given application.
Frequency Stability
The SiT5157 comes in three factory-trimmed stability
grades.

Output Frequency and Format
The SiT5157 can be factory programmed for an output
frequency without sacrificing lead time or incurring an
upfront customization cost typically associated with custom-
frequency quartz TCXOs.
Output Frequency Tuning
In addition to the non-pullable TCXO, the SiT5157 can also
support output frequency tuning through either an analog
control voltage (VCTCXO), or I2C interface (DCTCXO). The
I2C interface enables 16 factory programmed pull-range
options from ±6.25 ppm to ±3200 ppm. The pull range can
also be reprogrammed via I2C to any supported pull-range
value.
Refer to Device Configuration section for details.

Pin 1 Configuration (OE, VC, or NC)
Pin 1 of the SiT5157 can be factory programmed to support
three modes: Output Enable (OE), Voltage Control (VC), or
No Connect (NC).
Table 13. Pin Configuration Options
Pin 1 Configuration Operating Mode Output
OE TCXO/DCTCXO Active or High-Z
NC TCXO/DCTCXO Active
VC VCTCXO Active
When pin 1 is configured as OE pin, the device output is
guaranteed to operate in one of the following two states:
Clock output with the frequency specified in the part
number when Pin 1 is pulled to logic high
Hi-Z mode with weak pull down when pin 1 is pulled to
logic low.
When pin 1 is configured as NC, the device is guaranteed to
output the frequency specified in the part number at all times,
regardless of the logic level on pin 1.
In the VCTCXO configuration, the user can fine-tune the
output frequency from the nominal frequency specified in the
part number by varying the pin 1 voltage. The guaranteed
allowable variation of the output frequency is specified as pull
range. A VCTCXO part number must contain a valid pull-
range ordering code.
Device Configurations
The SiT5157 supports 3 device configurations TCXO,
VCTCXO, and DCTCXO. The TCXO and VCTCXO options
are directly compatible with the quartz TCXO and VCTCXO.
The DCTCXO configuration provides performance
enhancement by eliminating VCTCXO’s sensitivity to control
voltage noise with an I2C digital interface for frequency
tuning.
Figure 21. Block Diagram TCXO
TCXO Configuration
The TCXO generates a fixed frequency output, as shown in
Figure 21. The frequency is specified by the user in the
frequency field of the device ordering code and then factory
programmed. Other factory programmable options include
supply voltage, and pin 1 functionality (OE or NC).
Refer to the Ordering Information section at the end of the
datasheet for a list of all ordering options.

VCTCXO Configuration
A VCTCXO, shown in Figure 22, is a frequency control device
whose output frequency is an approximately linear function of
control voltage applied to the voltage control pin. VCTCXOs
have a number of use cases including the VCO portion of a jitter
attenuation/jitter cleaner PLL Loop.
The SiT5157 achieves a 10x better pull range linearity of <0.5%
via a high-resolution fractional PLL and low-noise precision
analog-to-digital converter. By contrast, quartz-based
VCTCXOs change output frequency by varying the capacitive
load of a crystal resonator using varactor diodes, which results
in linearity of 5% to 105%.
Figure 22. Block Diagram VCTCXO
Note that the output frequency of the VCTCXO is
proportional to the analog control voltage applied to pin
1. Because this control signal is analog and directly
controls the output frequency, care must be taken to
minimize noise on this pin.
The nominal output frequency is factory programmed
per the customer’s request to 6 digits of precision and
is defined as the output frequency when the control
voltage equals Vdd/2. The maximum output frequency
variation from this nominal value is set by the pull range,
which is also factory programmed to the customer’s
desired value and specified by the ordering code. The
Ordering Information section shows all ordering
options and associated ordering codes.
Refer to Appendix 1 Design Considerations with
VCTCXO for more information on critical VCTCXO
parameters including pull range linearity, absolute pull
range, control voltage bandwidth, and KV.

DCTCXO Configuration
The SiT5157 offers digital control of the output frequency, as
shown in Figure 23. The output frequency is controlled by
writing frequency control words over the I2C interface.
There are several advantages of DCTCXOs relative to
VCTCXOs:

VCTCXO-Specific Design Considerations
Linearity
In any VCTCXO, there will be some deviation of the
frequency-voltage (FV) characteristic from an ideal straight
line. Linearity is the ratio of this maximum deviation to the
total pull range, expressed as a percentage. Figure 24 below
shows the typical pull linearity of a SiTime VCTCXO. The
linearity is excellent (1% maximum) relative to most quartz
offerings because the frequency pulling is achieved with a
PLL rather than varactor diodes.

TOTAL PULL RANGE
Figure 24. Typical SiTime VCTCXO Linearity
Control Voltage Bandwidth
Control voltage bandwidth, sometimes called “modulation
rate” or “modulation bandwidth”, indicates how fast a VCO
can respond to voltage changes at its input. The ratio of the
output frequency variation to the input voltage variation,
previously denoted by KV, has a low-pass characteristic in
most VCTCXOs. The control voltage bandwidth equals the
modulating frequency where the output frequency deviation
equals 0.707 (e.g. -3 dB) of its DC value, for DC inputs swept
in the same voltage range.
For example, a part with a ±6.25 ppm pull range and a 0-3V
control voltage can be regarded as having an average KV of
4.17 ppm/V (12.5 ppm/3 V = 4.17 ppm/V). Applying an input
of 1.5 V DC ± 0.5 V (1.0 V to 2.0 V) causes an output
frequency change of 4.17 ppm (±2.08 ppm). If the control
voltage bandwidth is specified as 10 kHz, the peak-to-peak
value of the output frequency change will be reduced to
4.33 ppm/√2 or 2.95 ppm, as the frequency of the control
voltage change is increased to 10 kHz.
FV Characteristic Slope KV
The slope of the FV characteristic is a critical design
parameter in many low bandwidth PLL applications. The
slope is the derivative of the FV characteristic the deviation
of frequency divided by the control voltage change needed
to produce that frequency deviation, over a small voltage
span, as shown below:
in
out
V
V
f
K
=
It is typically expressed in kHz/Volt, MHz/Volt, ppm/Volt, or
similar units. This slope is usually called “KV” based on
terminology used in PLL designs.
The extreme linear characteristic of the SiTime SiT5157
VCTCXO family means that there is very little KV variation
across the whole input voltage range (typically <1%),
significantly reducing the design burden on the PLL
designer. Figure 25 below illustrates the typical KV variation.

Pull Range, Absolute Pull Range
Pull range (PR) is the amount of frequency deviation that
will result from changing the control voltage over its
maximum range under nominal conditions.
Absolute pull range (APR) is the guaranteed controllable
frequency range over all environmental and aging
conditions. Effectively, it is the amount of pull range
remaining after taking into account frequency stability,
tolerances over variables such as temperature, power
supply voltage, and aging, i.e.:
agingstability
FFPRAPR =
where
stability
F
is the device frequency stability due to initial
tolerance and variations on temperature, power supply, and
load.
Figure 26 shows a typical SiTime VCTCXO FV
characteristic. The FV characteristic varies with
conditions, so that the frequency output at a given input
voltage can vary by as much as the specified frequency
stability of the VCTCXO. For such VCTCXOs, the
frequency stability and APR are independent of each
other. This allows very wide range of pull options without
compromising frequency stability.

The upper and lower control voltages are the specified
limits of the input voltage range as shown in
Figure 26 above. Applying voltages beyond the upper and
lower voltages do not result in noticeable changes of
output frequency. In other words, the FV characteristic of
the VCTCXO saturates beyond these voltages. Figures 1
and 2 show these voltages as Lower Control Voltage
(VC_L) and Upper Control Voltage (VC_U).

Output Frequency
The device powers up at the nominal operating frequency
and pull range specified by the ordering code. After power-
up both pull range and output frequency can be controlled
via I2C writes to the respective control registers. The
maximum output frequency change is constrained by the
pull range limits.
The pull range is specified by the value loaded in the digital
pull-range control register. The 16 pull range choices are
specified in the control register and range from ±6.25 ppm
to ±3200 ppm.

The ppm frequency offset is specified by the 26 bit DCXO
frequency control register in two’s complement format as
described in the I2C Register Descriptions. The power up
default value is 00000000000000000000000000b which
sets the output frequency at its nominal value (0 ppm). To
change the output frequency, a frequency control word is
written to 0x00[15:0] (Least Significant Word) and 0x01[9:0]
(Most Significant Word). The LSW value should be written
first followed by the MSW value; the frequency change is
initiated after the MSW value is written.

Figure 27. Pull Range and Frequency Control Word
Figure 27 shows how the two’s complement signed value of
the frequency control word sets the output frequency within
the ppm pull range set by 0x02:[3:0]. This example shows
use of the ±200 ppm pull range. Therefore, to set the desired
output frequency, one just needs to calculate the fraction of
full scale value ppm, convert to two’s complement binary,
and then write these values to the frequency control
registers.
The following formula generates the control word value:
Control word value = RND((225-1) × ppm shift from
nominal/pull range), where RND is the rounding function
which rounds the number to the nearest whole number.
Two examples follow, assuming a ±200 ppm pull range:
Example 1:
Default Output Frequency = 98.304 MHz
Desired Output Frequency = 98.31284736 MHz (90 ppm)
225-1 corresponds to +200 ppm, and the fractional value
required for +90 ppm can be calculated as follows.
90 ppm / 200 ppm × (225-1) = 15,099,493.95.
Rounding to the nearest whole number yields 15,099,494
and converting to two’s complement gives a binary value of
111001100110011001100110, or E66666 in hex.
Example 2:
Default Output Frequency = 155.52 MHz
Desired Output Frequency = 155.512224 MHz (-50 ppm)
Following the formula shown above,
(-50 ppm / 200 ppm) × (225) = -8,388,608.
Converting this to two’s complement binary results in
11100000000000000000000000, or 3800000 in hex.
To summarize, the procedure for calculating the frequency
control word associated with a given ppm offset is as
follows:
It is important to note that the maximum Digital Control
update rate is 38 kHz regardless of I2C bus speed.

Serial Interface Configuration Description
The SiT5157 includes an I2C interface to access registers
that control the DCTCXO frequency pull range, and
frequency pull value. The SiT5157 I2C slave-only interface
supports clock speeds up to 1 Mbit/s. The SiT5157 I2C
module is based on the I2C specification, UM1024 (Rev.6
April 4, 2014 of NXP Semiconductor).
Serial Signal Format
The SDA line must be stable during the high period of the
SCL. SDA transitions are allowed only during SCL low level
for data communication. Only one transition is allowed during
the low SCL state to communicate one bit of data. Figure 28
shows the detailed timing diagram.
An idle I2C bus state occurs when both SCL and SDA are not
being driven by any master and are therefore in a logic HI
state due to the pull up resistors. Every transaction begins
with a START (S) signal and ends with a STOP (P) signal. A
START condition is defined by a high to low transition on the
SDA while SCL is high. A STOP condition is defined by a low
to high transition on the SDA while SCL is high. START and
STOP conditions are always generated by the master. This
slave module also supports repeated START (Sr) condition
which is same as START condition instead of STOP
condition (the blue-color line shows repeated START in
Figure 29).

Parallel Signal Format
Every data byte is 8 bits long. The number of bytes that can
be transmitted per transfer is unrestricted. Data is transferred
with the MSB (Most Significant Bit) first. The detailed data
transfer format is shown in Figure 31 below.
The acknowledge bit must occur after every byte transfer and
it allows the receiver to signal the transmitter that the byte
was successfully received and another byte may be sent.
The acknowledge signal is defined as follows: the transmitter
releases the SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse so
the receiver can pull the SDA line low and it remains stable
low during the high period of this clock pulse. Setup and hold
times must also be taken into account. When SDA remains
high during this ninth clock pulse, this is defined as the Not-
Acknowledge signal (NACK). The master can then generate
either a STOP condition to abort the transfer, or a repeated
START condition to start a new transfer. The only condition
that leads to the generation of NACK from the SiT5157 is
when the transmitted address does not match the slave
address. When the master is reading data from the SiT5157,
the SiT5157 expects the ACK from the master at the end of
received data, so that the slave releases the SDA line and
the master can generate the STOP or repeated START. If
there is a NACK signal at the end of the data, then the
SiT5157 tries to send the next data. If the first bit of the next
data is “0”, then the SiT5157 holds the SDA line to “0”,
thereby blocking the master from generating a
STOP/(re)START signal.
Parallel Data Format
This I2C slave module supports 7-bit device addressing
format. The 8th bit is a read/write bit and “1” indicates a read
transaction and a “0” indicates a write transaction. The
register addresses are 8-bits long with an address range of
0 to 255 (00h to FFh). Auto address incrementing is
supported which allows data to be transferred to contiguous
addresses without the need to write each address beyond
the first address. Since the maximum register address value
is 255, the address will roll from 255 back to 0 when auto
address incrementing is used. Obviously, auto address
incrementing should only be used for writing to contiguous
addresses. The data format is 16-bit (two bytes) with the
most significant byte being transferred first. For a read
operation, the starting register address must be written first.
If that is omitted, reading will start from the last address in
the auto-increment counter of the device, which has a
startup default of 0x00.

Layout Guidelines
The SiT5157 uses internal regulators to minimize the
impact of power supply noise. For further reduction of
noise, it is essential to use two bypass capacitors
(0.1 μF and 10 μF). Place the 0.1 uF capacitor as close
to the VDD pin as possible, typically within 1 mm to
2 mm. Place the 10 uF capacitor within 2 inches of the
device VDD and VSS pins.
It is also recommended to connect all NC pins to the
ground plane and place multiple vias under the GND
pin for maximum heat dissipation.
For additional layout recommendations, refer to the
Best Design Layout Practices.
Manufacturing Guidelines
The SiT5157 Super-TCXOs are precision timing devices.
Proper PCB solder and cleaning processes must be
followed to ensure best performance and long-term
reliability.
No Ultrasonic or Megasonic Cleaning: Do not subject
the SiT5157 to an ultrasonic or megasonic cleaning
environment. Otherwise, permanent damage or long-term
reliability issues to the device may result.
No external cover. Unlike legacy quartz TCXOs, the
SiT5157 is engineered to operate reliably, without
performance degradation in the presence of ambient
disturbers such as airflow and sudden temperature
changes. Therefore, the use of an external cover
typically required by quartz TCXOs is not needed.
Reflow profile: For mounting these devices to the PCB,
IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 compliant reflow profile must be
used. Device performance is not guaranteed if soldered
manually or with a non-compliant reflow profile.
PCB cleaning: After the surface mount (SMT)/reflow
process, solder flux residues may be present on the PCB
and around the pads of the device. Excess residual solder
flux may lead to problems such as pad corrosion, elevated
leakage currents, increased frequency aging, or other
performance degradation. For optimal device performance
and long-term reliability, thorough cleaning to remove all
the residual flux and drying of the PCB is required as
shortly after the reflow process as possible. Water soluble
flux is recommended. In addition, it is highly recommended
to avoid the use of any “no clean” flux. However, if the
reflow process necessitates the use of “no clean” flux, then
utmost care should be taken to remove all residual flux
between SiTime device and the PCB. Note that ultrasonic
PCB cleaning should not be used with SiTime oscillators.
For additional manufacturing guidelines and marking/
tape-reel instructions, refer to SiTime Manufacturing
Notes.
