Revision as of 18:05, 15 December 2013

The drivers/misc/si5338.c driver allows real-time control of the Silicon Labs si5338 Clock Generator using Linux sysfs interface. It also allows setting up parameters using the Device Tree.

It is also possible to use the register map file generated by Silicon Labs software, converted by a Python script to a Device Tree fragment (or fed to the driver using sysfs interface).

Contents

Reference Documentation

This driver is developed using excellent documentation provided by the chip manufacturer: [1] - detailed description of the device registers [2] - overall chip documentation including configuration procedure

sysfs interface

top level files

outputs (read only)

Provides information about each of the 4 outputs, like in the example below:

root@elphel393:/sys/devices/amba.0/e0004000.ps7-i2c/i2c-0/0-0070# cat outputs
0: 1V5_HSTL_A+, output frequency: 15000000 Hz, output route: MS0:1, ms_power_up, disabled state: dis_hi-z, output_power_up, output_en, Spread spectrum is ON, down amplitude= 500 ( *0.01%), spread rate= 31500 Hz
1: 2V5_LVPECL, output frequency: 0 Hz, output route: No clock, disabled state: dis_hi-z, output_power_down, output_en, Spread spectrum is OFF, down amplitude= 50 ( *0.01%), spread rate= 31500 Hz
2: 2V5_LVPECL, output frequency: 0 Hz, output route: No clock, disabled state: dis_hi-z, output_power_down, output_en, Spread spectrum is OFF, down amplitude= 50 ( *0.01%), spread rate= 31500 Hz
3: 1V8_LVDS, output frequency: 150000000 Hz, output route: MS3:1, ms_power_up, disabled state: dis_hi-z, output_power_up, output_en, Spread spectrum is ON, down amplitude= 50 ( *0.01%), spread rate= 31500 Hz

This includes:

  • output voltage (1V5 - 1.5V)
  • standard (HSTL)
  • output inversion for of the 2 paired outputs in single-ended mode ("A+B-" A positive, B - inverted; "A+" - output B is disabled)
  • output frequency
  • output route - each output can be fed from multiple sources, for example "IN3:2:8" means signal from input 3 divided by 2 in the input stage and by 8 in the output stage. "MS0:1" means that output is connected to the MultiSynth output 0 with no divider
  • disable state - low, high, hi-z or always on - state of the output pin when it is disabled
  • output stage (and divider) power up/down state
  • output enable/disable state (all outputs can be independently disabled by the global output disable)
  • spread spectrum: on/off state, amplitude (in 0.01% of the output frequency steps) and the sweep rate. Only down spread is supported, so the center frequency is half-amplitude less than with spread spectrum disabled

status (read only)

Read and interpret status register.

root@elphel393:/sys/devices/amba.0/e0004000.ps7-i2c/i2c-0/0-0070# cat status
0x8 input clock: OK, feedback clock: LOST, PLL lock: OK, calibration: DONE

pre_init (write only)

root@elphel393:/sys/devices/amba.0/e0004000.ps7-i2c/i2c-0/0-0070# echo "0" > pre_init

Disables all outputs, loss of lock signal before setting parameters and initializing PLL

pre_init_clear (write only)

root@elphel393:/sys/devices/amba.0/e0004000.ps7-i2c/i2c-0/0-0070# echo "0" > pre_init_clear

Same as pre_init, but additionally clears all output routes and input multiplexers before setting up the needed ones

post_init (write only)

root@elphel393:/sys/devices/amba.0/e0004000.ps7-i2c/i2c-0/0-0070# echo "0" > post_init

Initializes and calibrates PLL - should be called after the PLL parameters (or the whole frequency plan) are set up.

root@elphel393:/sys/devices/amba.0/e0004000.ps7-i2c/i2c-0/0-0070# cat input/in_frequency3
25000000

Set the input frequency applied to one of the differential input pairs (12, 56) or single-ended (3,4). "in_frequency12xo: is used to specify the frequency of the crystal connected between inputs 1 and 2. While the driver tries to make as little assumptions as possible and reads data from the si5338 registers (or actually from their cached shadows), the input frequency has to be stored off-chip and may be needed to be set up if you plan to use high-level functions to change frequency parameters even if the registers where initialized from the pre-calculated register map. Each write to these nodes also programs the input multiplexers and routes the specified pin (pin pair) to the PLL reference input, so if there are several active inputs, the last specified input will be routed.

0

Read reference and feedback frequency values. Determined by the input frequency settings, dividers and multiplexers.

pll/ folder

VCO frequency (use in PLL) can be set up either directly, or to match specified output frequency (one of the 4 channels). The valid range is 2.2GHz to 2.84GHz (2200000000 to 2840000000). Frequencies are specified in Hz with possible fractional part (numerator then denominator), so "2550000000 0 1" is the same as just "2550000000". In both cases "_int" and "_fract" applies to the feedback divider, the lowest jitter is achieved with integer dividers. Reading any of these nodes return the PLL frequency in Hz. "pll/pll_freq_int" is the most common option to use.

pll/pll_freq_int

Specify VCO frequency in HZ, require integer divider. Read VCO frequency in Hz.

pll/pll_freq_fract

Specify VCO frequency in HZ, allow fractional divider. Read VCO frequency in Hz.

pll/pll_by_out_int

Match VCO frequency to the required output frequency in HZ, require integer divider in both feedback and output dividers. Read VCO frequency in Hz.

pll/pll_by_out_fract

Match VCO frequency to the required output frequency in HZ, allow fractional feedback (MSn) divider. Read VCO frequency in Hz.

root@elphel393:/sys/devices/amba.0/e0004000.ps7-i2c/i2c-0/0-0070# cat pll/pll_by_out_int
2550000000 0 1

multiSynth/ folder

The si5338 chip uses 5 "multiSynth" fractional dividers - 4 of them (MS0..MS3) are used for the output frequencies generations, and the fifth one (MSn) is used as the PLL feeback divider. This subdirectory allows low-level control of these dividers - in most cases they can be set up indirectly by specifying the required frequencies.

multiSynth/ms1_p123

multiSynth/ms2_p123

multiSynth/ms3_p123
