4. I2C Interface
Many of the functions and features of the Si5351 are controlled by reading and writing to the RAM space using the
I2C interface. The following is a list of the common features that are controllable through the I2C interface. For a
complete listing of available I2C registers and programming steps, please see “AN619: Manually Generating an
Si5351 Register Map.”
Read Status Indicators
Crystal Reference Loss of signal, LOS_XTAL, reg0[3]
CLKIN Loss of signal, LOS_CLKIN, reg0[4]
PLLA and/or PLLB Loss of lock, LOL_A or LOL_B, reg0[6:5]
Configuration of multiplication and divider values for the PLLs, MultiSynth dividers
Configuration of the Spread Spectrum profile (down or center spread, modulation percentage)
Control of the cross point switch selection for each of the PLLs and MultiSynth dividers
Set output clock options
Enable/disable for each clock output
Invert/non-invert for each clock output
Output divider values (2n, n=1.. 7)
Output state when disabled (stop hi, stop low, Hi-Z)
Output phase offset
The I2C interface operates in slave mode with 7-bit addressing and can operate in Standard-Mode (100 kbps) or
Fast-Mode (400 kbps) and supports burst data transfer with auto address increments.
The I2C bus consists of a bidirectional serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock input (SCL) as shown in Figure 7.
Both the SDA and SCL pins must be connected to the VDD supply via an external pull-up as recommended by the
I2C specification.

The 7-bit device (slave) address of the Si5351 consist of a 6-bit fixed address plus a user selectable LSB bit as
shown in Figure 8. The LSB bit is selectable as 0 or 1 using the optional A0 pin which is useful for applications that
require more than one Si5351 on a single I2C bus.
