SN65LVPE502A / redrive two Tx signal of CPU

Guru 29710 points
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SN65LVPE502A, TUSB501

Hi Team,

My customer considers to use SN65LVPE502A as the following figure.


His board space is restricted and can't put two SN65LVPE502As, so he would like to redrive Tx signal of CPU only.
Is it possible to connect as the above?

Your support would be appreciated.

Best Regards,
Yaita

  • This will not work as the re-driver must be connected the same port, the LVPE502A only enables termination to re-drive the signal when a Host and Device are both attached.  Splitting the Tx1 and Tx2 to different ports will cause issues.

    The customer can use two of the single-channel re-drivers TUSB501 with greater flexibility in the layout.
