Thank you for your help.
I would like to create a loopback path for the SGMII signal (1.25Gbps).
The following device groups can be selected as candidates for achieving this (with loopback functionality):
①DS25MB100/200 (TI)
②DS40MB200 (TI)
③DS42MB100 (TI)
④SN65LVCP40 (TI)
When we asked our distributors about their availability, we received a reply that they are not recommended for new designs because the designs are old and more than 15 years have passed since their release.
However, it is the most suitable spec for the purpose of use. Are there any other products in TI's latest product range that would be suitable for this purpose?
Or, even though the design of the above product is old, I would like to use it if it is not discontinued for the time being. Could you please give me some advice on the selection?
Thank you.
