DS320PR822: Is there guideline for EEPROM Programming in SMBus/I2C Primary Mode?

Part Number: DS320PR822


Tool/software:

Hi Team

Customer wanna choose DS320PR822 in their server project. they wanna know if we can provide the guideline for:

1. EEPROM Programming in SMBus/I2C Primary Mode

2. High-speed parameter configuration. 

Thanks!

  • Hi Harry,

    For EEPROM programming and EQ configuration, we have a SigCon Architect software GUI with the "DS320PR8xx" profile. The profile has an EEPROM programmer that can generate EEPROM .hex files for the device at any time, and a high-level page for directly changing EQ settings on connected devices during testing.

    There are also documents available on manual EEPROM generation and I2C programming, however they are more difficult than using the GUI. The GUI and all relevant resources are available to request at the following link if the customer is interested (if they are, let us know so we can point them to the relevant files): https://www.ti.com/secureresources/PCIE5-REDRIVERS-DESIGN

    However without further information, at this time it's not possible to suggest what EQ setting may be suitable for the application or what the corresponding EEPROM configuration is.

    Best,

    Evan Su
