  • [FAQ] LMH0303: How to setup LMH0303EVM to operate in Pin mode or use external SMBus controller?

    Part Number: LMH0303 Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LMH0318 , SIGCONARCHITECT , LMH0397 , , LMH0307 , USB2ANY LMH0303EVM/LMH0307EVM GUI was developed using win XP OS. Majority of PCs now run win10 and it is incompatible with LMH0303EVM GUI. How do we…

  • [FAQ] DS280DF810: How to use SigconArchitect to program 16-bits User Defined Generator Pattern

    Part Number: DS280DF810 Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SIGCONARCHITECT There are two purposes for this FAQ: 1). Channel register settings - using FPGA or ASIC - to generate 16-bits user pattern used for mask compliance test or other purposes. 2…

  • [FAQ] When implementing a USB 3.x signal redriver, what is the difference between pre-channel loss and post-channel loss?

    Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TUSB1002A I am implementing a USB 3.x signal redriver to help with signal integrity issues. I understand that a redriver provides equalization to the signal path but what losses are affected by this equalization?

  • [FAQ] How do I debug a TI USB Hubs when downstream ports are non-operational?

    Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TUSB8044 , TUSB8041A , TUSB8043 , TUSB8042 , TUSB4020BI , TUSB8020B , TUSB8041 , TUSB4041I I have implemented a USB Hub with four USB 3.1 Gen / USB 2.0 ports using TUSB8044 however the downstream ports don’t work when…

  • [FAQ] How to Enable DSxxxDFxxx to Lock to Any Data Rate within VCO Range

    Part Number: DS280DF810 Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SIGCONARCHITECT In this example, we use a non-standard data rate - for example 24.33Gbps - and configure register settings to lock to this data rate. Note: Data rate MUST be within the device…

  • [FAQ] DS280DF810: What are register settings to enable prbs generator and checker using a simple divide by 2, 4, or 8 clock

    Part Number: DS280DF810 Using DS280DFxxx or DS250DFxxx we can use a simple divide by 2, 4, or 8 of the data rate clock to generate different prbs pattern at different data rates up to 28Gbps. What are the register settings to make this happen?
