SN65LVCP23: AC-coupled single-ended input?

Kei Kuwahara

Part Number: SN65LVCP23
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SN65LVCP22

Tool/software:

Hello team,

My customer would like to use this device with AC-coupled single-ended clock input.
Does this device accept AC-coupled single-ended clock input?

On the datasheet, there is an input configuration for DC-coupled single-ended.
How can customer configure for AC-coupled input? (Single-ended)

Best Regards,

Hi Kei:

For AC coupled input, common mode on B is 1.9v, you need to keep A common mode voltage at 1.9v as well by biasing Vtt .

Hi Brian-san,

Thank you for the quick answer!
Customer has additional questions. Could you please answer them?

Question 1
Is there any similar device to SN65LVCP23 with Active LOW EN logic? (Customer want output = H, when EN = L)

Question 2
Are there any EVMs for SN65LVCP23?

Best Regards,

Hi Kei:

For Q1: both SN65LVCP22 and SN65LVCP23 support Active high EN logic. We don't have device support Active LOW EN logic.

For Q2: We inherited this device from other TI product line, but never found EVM for this device.

Hello Brian-san,

Thank you for the answer.
I have confirmed with customer, and they can you Active high EN logic.

Customer has designed input circuit for AC-coupled single-ended configuration as attached below.

Could you please check if this schematic is okay?
(Customer is creating 1.9V from 3.3V by two diodes drop voltage)

You just need Vcc and voltage divider like below.
