Ultra Series
™
Crystal Oscillator (VCXO)
Si569 Data Sheet
Ultra Low Jitter I2C Programmable VCXO (100 fs), 0.2 to
3000 MHz
The Si569 Ultra Series
™
voltage-controlled crystal oscillator utilizes Silicon
Laboratories’ advanced 4
th
generation DSPLL
®
technology to provide an ul-
tra-low jitter, low phase noise clock at any output frequency. The device is
user-programmed via simple I2C commands to provide any frequency from
0.2 to 3000 MHz with <1 ppb resolution and maintains exceptionally low jitter
for both integer and fractional frequencies across its operating range. On-
chip power supply filtering provides industry-leading power supply noise re-
jection, simplifying the task of generating low jitter clocks in noisy systems
that use switched-mode power supplies. Unlike a traditional XO, where a dif-
ferent crystal is required for each output frequency, the Si569 uses one sim-
ple crystal and a DSPLL IC-based approach to provide the desired output
frequency. The Si569 is factory-configurable for a wide variety of user speci-
fications, including startup frequency, I2C address, output format, and OE
pin location/polarity. Specific configurations are factory-programmed at time
of shipment, eliminating long lead times associated with custom oscillators.

Description
The Si569 supports up to
two user-defined startup
frequencies in the range
selected by the Supported
Frequency Range code. A
user-defined 7-bit I2C
address is supported.
Each unique startup
configuration and I2C
address combination is
assigned a 6-digit code.

Notes:
1. Contact Silicon Labs for non-standard configurations.
2. Create custom part numbers at
www.silabs.com/oscillators.
3. Min Absolute Pull Range (APR) includes temp stability, initial accuracy, load pulling, VDD variation, and 20 year aging at 70 °C.
a. For best jitter and phase noise performance, always choose the smallest Kv that meets the application’s minimum APR re-
quirements. Unlike SAW-based solutions which require higher Kv values to account for their higher temperature dependence,
the Si56x series provides lower Kv options to minimize noise coupling and jitter in real-world PLL designs.
b. Absolute Pull Range (APR) is the ability of a VCXO to track a signal over the product lifetime. A VCXO with an APR of ±20
ppm is able to lock to a clock with a ±20 ppm stability over 20 years over all operating conditions.
c. APR (±) = (0.5 x VDD x tuning slope) - (initial accuracy + temp stability + load pulling + VDD variation + aging).
d. Minimum APR values noted above include absolute worst case values for all parameters.
e. See application note, "AN266:
VCXO Tuning Slope (Kv), Stability, and Absolute Pull Range (APR)"
for more information.
