[FAQ] LMH1297: Manually Adjusting Cable EQ

Part Number: LMH1297

Tool/software:

Hi,

When performing diagnostic evaluations of the LMH1297 retimer customers often want to adjust input cable EQ from the IO side. In these cases we recommend disabling the EQ adaptation and performing the following register sequence to manually adjust the cable EQ:

Command Register Value Mask
//Select the ConfigIO page 0xFF 0x05 0x05
//Disable EQ Adaptation 0x00 0xC0 0xC0
//Write the cable EQ value 0x24 xx 0x1F
//Read the cable EQ value 0x25 xx 0x1F

After writing the cable EQ value in ConfigIO register 0x24, read the updated value in 0x25 to ensure that the device's cable EQ value has changed.

Best regards,

Nick
