NetSync™ Network Synchronizer Clocks

NetSync™ Network Synchronizer Clocks

NetSync network synchronizer clocks support Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE)-compliant wander filtering and software adjustment of output frequency and phase for IEEE 1588 applications.

These devices offer ultra-low jitter, ultra-low phase noise output clocks, eliminating the need for a follow-on jitter attenuator device. With up to 4 DSPLL’s and flexible MultiSynth placement this unique architecture can reduce complexity and size while achieving low power consumption. These combination of features make them ideal suited in today’s complex network equipment.

NetSync clocks can be combined with Skyworks’ AccuTime™ software to provide a fully standards compliant 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) solution operating in full timing support (FTS), partial timing support (PTS), assisted partial timing support (APTS), and PTP-unaware networks. Alternatively, NetSync clocks can be coupled with existing, or third-party, 1588 software to provide a complete solution.

Si5518 and Si5512 combine the functions of an IEEE 1588/SyncE network synchronizer with an ultra-low phase noise CPRI/eCPRI, JESD204B/C wireless jitter attenuating clock in a single device. These clocks are ideal for applications requiring IEEE 1588/SyncE and low phase noise data converter clocking such as 5G radio units, remote radio heads, small cells and gNodeB.

Si5401, Si5402 and Si5403 clocks generate ultra-low jitter ethernet based clocks for applications requiring IEEE 1588/SyncE such as 5G BBU’s, core metro routers/switches and O-RAN distributed unit (DU), front-haul switches (FSH), central units (CU) and smartNICs.
