Wireless Infrastructure Applications
Silicon Labs offers a comprehensive clock and oscillator portfolio for wireless infrastructure applications. These devices eliminate the need for discrete VCXO and loop filter components, simplifying design, and minimizing overall solution costs. Our clock products are highly frequency flexible, generating any combination of frequencies from any input frequency with unparalleled performance and enabling “clock-tree-on-a-chip” BOM consolidation. We also offer ultra-low jitter programmable oscillators customizable to any frequency, with samples available in less than two weeks. Our PCI Express timing products provide fully compliant PCIe Gen 1/2/3 clock generation and distribution.
