LMK5C33216: The difference between LMK5C33216/LMK5B33216 and LMK5C33216A

Part Number: LMK5C33216

Tool/software:

Hi,

We have promoted LMK5B33216 to customer before, now we are considering LMK5C33216 or LMK5C33216A.

I want to know what is the difference between LMK5C33216,LMK5B33216 and LMK5C33216A.

Is there any system difference by using these three devices?

Any power assumption difference?

Thank you

  • Hi Yishan ,

    If choosing between the LMK5C33216 and LMK5C33216A, we recommend the "A" version.

    The "A" version is the latest silicon and is more register/device compatible to the LMK5B33216 than the "non-A". Compared to the "non-A", the "A" version has improvements with the common-mode voltage and APLL2 spurs.

    The LMK5C parts are geared for wireless comm. use a 2457.6 MHz BAW VCO for APLL3 whereas the LMK5B parts are geared for wired comm and use a 2500 MHz BAW VCO for APLL3.

    Overall, the three parts are mostly similar.

    Regards,

  • Hi Jennifer,

    Do we have more detailed materials about these three parts?

    Also, what about power consumption? Any power consumption improvements on A version?

    Thank you,

  • Hi Yishan ,

    There is no significant power consumption improvement with the A version.

    Can you please clarify what details are needed beyond the datasheet files?

    Is the customer looking to switch between non-A to A?
