TLIN1029-Q1: Question of external pull up

Part Number: TLIN1029-Q1

Hi team,

I just want to double check wheterh the external pull up can be removed between TLIN1029-Q1 and MCU.

The MCU has an internal pull up (13kohm), so is it okay to remove the external pull-up resistor on RXD pin path?

Thanks,

Sam,

The recommended external pull-up is typically 5k-10k ohms, but a 13k ohm pull-up should be sufficient.

Sam,

I agree with Eric that 13 kOhm is likely fine. If you want to read more on how to determine the maximum pull-up resistance that can be supported via an open-drain signal, though, you may want to refer to this application note:

It is written specifically for I2C, but the same concepts would apply to any open-drain signals.
