DP83826I: recommended capacitor on the CEXT pin

Part Number: DP83826I


hi,

we are using the 83826 in an EtherCAT module and have a doubt on the CEXT value.

The DS suggests 2nF

The SNLA344C suggests 2uF in // with 100nF 

The EVM shows 100nF.

Which one is correct?

how does it change with the new "A" version?

thanks

Vincenzo

  • Hi Vicenzo, 

    I apologize for the confusion. There has been some updates since many documents regarding the recommended value of CEXT. However, please follow the recommended value from the datasheet. 

    Best,
