Hello,
in our design we have setup with DS90UB936 and DS90UB935. Connection is over coaxial cable, with PoC.
Both devices are set to CSI-2 Synchronous mode - DS90UB935 MODE=0, DS90UB936 MODE=4.
We are having problem with getting link lock stable, while checking status in register 4 of DS90UB936, we observe changing values between 0xd3 and 0xdf
Can you please advice some steps to proceed to find out root cause of this issue ?
Just for reference, here is registry dump from DS90UB936:

PoC network is implemented the same way as in reference schematics, with exactly same components.
Voltages on MODE pins are checked - DS90UB935 is 0V, on DS90UB936 it is 1V.
REFCLK on DS90UB936 is 25MHz from quartz oscillator, also check, there is correct frequency.
