DS90UB954-Q1: Using a UFL connector for data and power transmission

Tony Philip

Part Number: DS90UB954-Q1

Hi,

Is it possible to use a UFL connector to transmit data over instead of a big and bulky Fakra Cable?

I am looking to use this UFL to Coax cable to connect the baseboard and the Camera Board: https://www.fairviewmicrowave.com/sma-male-umcx-2.5-plug-cable-rg178-coax-fmca1026-12-p.aspx

The power required on the camera board is very minimal (.5W with <100mA current).

Do you have any suggested parts for the UFL Connector.

Hi Tony,

We do not specify any connectors that must be used with our devices. We simply define a channel spec you must comply with in order for the link to be robust. TI can provide the channel spec and you could use it to work with connector/cable vendors to find something that would work for you.

Regards,

Nick

Hi Nicholas,

Thanks for the reply. Would you point me to where I can find the channel specifications for the DS90UB954-Q1 chip.

Hi Tony,

Is there a local TI sales person you are working with. They can request from our systems team or reach out to me internally. We do not want to share certain items on a public forum.

Hi Tony,

Im not sure who to recommend. Maybe I can share directly. Lets connect on E2E and go from there.

Hello Tony,

Unfortunately we do not have a contact that we can share with you at this time. If you send me an E2E private message we can discuss your company and determine if there is an appropriate TI contact who can engage with you or not

Best Regards,

Casey
