Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DP83TD510E
Hi Team
My customer is evaluating DP83TD510E-EVM now. Customer has two questions below. Let me explain the situation first.
Customer measured eye diagram of received signal waveform with following test conditions by their own cable.
When distance being longer than 100m, eye diagram closed entirely.
When they use 2.4V mode, link kept established until 800m.
Test conditions :
・Connect one EVM to cable. Connect receive side to oscilloscope.
・Load Force_2v4Vpp_Master_Init.txt to EVM to continue output waveform (Is it correct to use this script to continue output waveform?)
・EVM's supply voltage is 12V
[Question 1]
This material shows the requirement for cable. Customer think the signal waveform will be distorted if the cable used is just almost fulfilled the requirement shown in previous material.
But customer can still establish link for 100m in 1V mode despite the eye diagram is closed.
So customer wants to know if there's any equalizer or amplifier function (or both) inside DP83TD510E-EVM to compensate received signal?
I know DP83822 have equalizer function, but how about DP83TD510E?
[Question 2]
If the cable used is just almost fulfilled the requirement in above material, customer worries about noise immunity due to S/N degradation.
Do DP83TD510E have such function to improve noise immunity or function that help prevent suffering from noise?
Please let me know if you need more information to give us advices.
Thanks.
Regards,
Jo
