DP83825EVM: What's the 33OHM resisrors used for?

Part Number: DP83825EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DP83825I

In the DP83825I reference schematic, theire are three 33Ohm resistor: RX_D0 conncet to TX_D0 with 33ohm,etc,What's the 33OHM resisror used for? What if I don't use them,what will happen?  thanks.

  • Hi Spura,

    These resistors are used for impedance matching on the traces to reduce reflections between the transmitter and receiver.

    The effect of removing them will depend on your layout - I recommend simulating with the DP83825 IBIS model for your own design.

    Thank you,

    Evan
