DS90UB954-Q1: INPUT SHORT CIRCUIT FAULT TEST for DS90UB954-Q1

Part Number: DS90UB954-Q1

Hi TI support team, 

Will DS90UB954-Q1 be damaged if the input is abnormally connected to -1V or 35V?
I just need to change ac-coupling capacitor rating to 50V, is correct?

Thanks,

Andy

  • Hi Andy,

    Thanks for raising this question here. You are correct that AC coupling capacitor should be 50V rated for the UB954, this will isolate the FPD-Link receiver of the UB954 from the external PoC voltage connected to the deserializer. One important consideration here would be if there is a PoC circuit / ESD diode also on the high speed trace. These components can also be impacted when DC bias is applied to the RIN / DOUT path.

    Best,
