Clock Software and Tools
ClockBuilder Pro is a user-friendly software tool that simplifies clock tree design, providing system designers with the ability to customize Silicon Labs’ Clock Generators, Jitter Attenuators, Buffers, and Oscillator products. The tool’s graphical user interface guides users through a step-by-step process to enter the reference clock parameters specific to each design, which results in a configuration file. ClockBuilder Pro also provides users with real time feedback on key performance parameters, offering suggestions to optimize power consumption and RMS phase jitter performance. Once a configuration file is complete, the tool can generate a custom part number and provide a corresponding datasheet addendum. ClockBuilder Pro is also used as the primary interface to communicate with Silicon Labs evaluation boards as well as the Field Programmer Tool.
The PCIe Clock Jitter Tool is designed to simplify the process of taking accurate RMS phase jitter measurements on PCIe Gen 1/2/3/4/5 reference clocks. Users can upload a saved waveform file into the tool, make the necessary selections, and the tool applies the specific filter masks specified by the PCI-SIG to compute the RMS phase jitter. This software takes away all the guesswork of properly measuring PCIe Gen 1/2/3/4/5 common clock and SRIS/SRNS jitter measurements, providing a comprehensive performance report that users can save.
Looking for phase noise conversion? The Phase Noise to Jitter Calculator tool converts phase noise to phase jitter, period jitter, and cycle-to-cycle jitter. The resulting jitter values can be used to easily identify clocks and oscillators that meet the requirement.

Speeds Up Clock Tree Design
Customize Clock Generators Using ClockBuilder Pro Software (CBPro)
ClockBuilder Pro (CBPro) is designed to simplify clock tree design and device configuration. This software uses an easy-to-operate user interface that can customize Silicon Labs’ Clock Generators and Jitter Attenuators, request a custom part number and request custom phase noise plot reports. CBPro connects to all related EVBs and the CBPro Field Programmer that can then be used to program devices already mounted on customer boards. Release notes, CLI (Command Line Interface) documentation and general training information are also included in the software package.
