Programmable Drive Strength
The SiT8920 includes a programmable drive strength feature
to provide a simple, flexible tool to optimize the clock rise/fall
time for specific applications. Benefits from the programmable
drive strength feature are:
Improves system radiated electromagnetic interference
(EMI) by slowing down the clock rise/fall time
Improves the downstream clock receiver’s (RX) jitter by de-
creasing (speeding up) the clock rise/fall time.
Ability to drive large capacitive loads while maintaining full
swing with sharp edge rates.
For more detailed information about rise/fall time control and
drive strength selection, see the SiTime Applications Note
section; http://www.sitime.com/support/application-notes.
EMI Reduction by Slowing Rise/Fall Time
Figure 16 shows the harmonic power reduction as the rise/fall
times are increased (slowed down). The rise/fall times are
expressed as a ratio of the clock period. For the ratio of 0.05,
the signal is very close to a square wave. For the ratio of 0.45,
the rise/fall times are very close to near-triangular waveform.
These results, for example, show that the 11th clock harmonic
can be reduced by 35 dB if the rise/fall edge is increased from
5% of the period to 45% of the period.
Figure 16. Harmonic EMI reduction as a Function of
Slower Rise/Fall Time
Jitter Reduction with Faster Rise/Fall Time
Power supply noise can be a source of jitter for the
downstream chipset. One way to reduce this jitter is to speed
up the rise/fall time of the input clock. Some chipsets may also
require faster rise/fall time in order to reduce their sensitivity to
this type of jitter. Refer to the Rise/Fall Time Tables (Table 7 to
Table 11) to determine the proper drive strength.
High Output Load Capability
The rise/fall time of the input clock varies as a function of the
actual capacitive load the clock drives. At any given drive
strength, the rise/fall time becomes slower as the output load
increases. As an example, for a 3.3V SiT8920 device with
default drive strength setting, the typical rise/fall time is 1ns for
15 pF output load. The typical rise/fall time slows down to
2.6ns when the output load increases to 45 pF. One can
choose to speed up the rise/fall time to 1.83ns by then
increasing the drive strength setting on the SiT8920.
The SiT8920 can support up to 60 pF or higher in maximum
capacitive loads with drive strength settings. Refer to the
Rise/Tall Time Tables (Table 7 to 11) to determine the proper
drive strength for the desired combination of output load vs.
rise/fall time
SiT8920 Drive Strength Selection
Tables 7 through 11 define the rise/fall time for a given capac-
itive load and supply voltage.
1. Select the table that matches the SiT8920 nominal supply
voltage (1.8V, 2.5V, 2.8V, 3.0V, 3.3V).
2. Select the capacitive load column that matches the appli-
cation requirement (5 pF to 60 pF)
3. Under the capacitive load column, select the desired
rise/fall times.
4. The left-most column represents the part number code for
the corresponding drive strength.
5. Add the drive strength code to the part number for ordering
purposes.
Calculating Maximum Frequency
Based on the rise and fall time data given in Tables 7 through
11, the maximum frequency the oscillator can operate with
guaranteed full swing of the output voltage over temperature
as follows:
where Trf_20/80 is the typical value for 20%-80% rise/fall
time.
Example 1
Calculate fMAX for the following condition:
Vdd = 1.8V (Table 7)
Capacitive Load: 30 pF
Desired Tr/f time = 3 ns (rise/fall time part number code = E)

Pin 1 Configuration Options (OE, ST, or NC)
Pin 1 of the SiT8920 can be factory-programmed to support
three modes: Output enable (OE), standby (ST) or No Connect
(NC). These modes can also be programmed with the Time
Machine using field programmable devices.
Output Enable (OE) Mode
In the OE mode, applying logic Low to the OE pin only disables
the output driver and puts it in Hi-Z mode. The core of the
device continues to operate normally. Power consumption is
reduced due to the inactivity of the output. When the OE pin is
pulled High, the output is typically enabled in <1µs.
Standby (ST) Mode
In the ST mode, a device enters into the standby mode when
Pin 1 pulled Low. All internal circuits of the device are turned
off. The current is reduced to a standby current, typically in the
range of a few µA. When ST is pulled High, the device goes
through the “resume” process, which can take up to 5 ms.
No Connect (NC) Mode
In the NC mode, the device always operates in its normal
mode and output the specified frequency regardless of the
logic level on pin 1.
Table 12 below summarizes the key relevant parameters in the
operation of the device in OE, ST, or NC mode.
Output on Startup and Resume
The SiT8920 comes with gated output. Its clock output is
accurate to the rated frequency stability within the first pulse
from initial device startup or resume from the standby mode.
In addition, the SiT8920 has NO RUNT, NO GLITCH output
during startup or resume as shown in the waveform captures
in Figure 17 and Figure 18.

Best Reliability
Silicon is inherently more reliable than quartz. Unlike quartz
suppliers, SiTime has in-house MEMS and analog CMOS
expertise, which allows SiTime to develop the most reliable
products. Figure 1 shows a comparison with quartz
technology.
Why is SiTime Best in Class:
SiTime’s MEMS resonators are vacuum sealed using an
advanced EpiSeal™ process, which eliminates foreign par-
ticles and improves long term aging and reliability
World-class MEMS and CMOS design expertise
Figure 1. Reliability Comparison[1]
Best Aging
Unlike quartz, MEMS oscillators have excellent long term
aging performance which is why every new SiTime product
specifies 10-year aging. A comparison is shown in Figure 2.
Why is SiTime Best in Class:
SiTime’s MEMS resonators are vacuum sealed using an
advanced EpiSeal process, which eliminates foreign parti-
cles and improves long term aging and reliability
Inherently better immunity of electrostatically driven
MEMS resonator
Figure 2. Aging Comparison[2]
Best Electro Magnetic Susceptibility (EMS)
SiTime’s oscillators in plastic packages are up to 54 times
more immune to external electromagnetic fields than quartz
oscillators as shown in Figure 3.
Why is SiTime Best in Class:
Internal differential architecture for best common mode
noise rejection
Electrostatically driven MEMS resonator is more immune
to EMS
Figure 3. Electro Magnetic Susceptibility (EMS)[3]
Best Power Supply Noise Rejection
SiTime’s MEMS oscillators are more resilient against noise on
the power supply. A comparison is shown in Figure 4.
Why is SiTime Best in Class:
On-chip regulators and internal differential architecture for
common mode noise rejection
Best analog CMOS design expertise

Best Vibration Robustness
High-vibration environments are all around us. All electronics,
from handheld devices to enterprise servers and storage
systems are subject to vibration. Figure 5 shows a comparison
of vibration robustness.
Why is SiTime Best in Class:
The moving mass of SiTimes MEMS resonators is up to
3000 times smaller than quartz
Center-anchored MEMS resonator is the most robust
design
Figure 5. Vibration Robustness[5]
Best Shock Robustness
SiTime’s oscillators can withstand at least 50,000 g shock.
They all maintain their electrical performance in operation
during shock events. A comparison with quartz devices is
shown in Figure 6.
