SN65DSI85: the LVDS output amplitude is different between clock and data.

Part Number: SN65DSI85


hi Sir.,

my customer measure the LVDS clock and data output from SN65DSI85. the clock amplitude looks correct but data looks 2x comparing with spec.

the register 0x19 is 0x0F. register 0x1A is 0x00.

the data amplitude seems 2x higher than spec. They try other different value on register 0x19, it all looks the same.

any idea?

How to separately control the the data and clock amplitude 

BR,

frank

  • Hi Frank,

    The only way the amplitude will be 2x higher than the spec is if the output is not properly terminated. I confirmed this with the EVM by disconnecting the display panel and leaving the outputs floating. They need to ensure the outputs are externally terminated with differential 100-ohms 

    Also, there is not a way to separately control clock and data amplitude.

    Regards,

    I.K.
