Hello, C52 and C53 are on bottom layer
Hello Bosheng,
I have attached the screenshot of bottom layer planes
There seem to be a small isolation breaking the planes(rats can be seen as well):
If this is intentional, why are the C52 & C53 connections kept as optional?
Regards,
A GaN daughter is soldered in position 1, the daughter card already have caps for the same purpose of C52 and C53. Position 2 is reserved for a different GaN daughter card, if it is used, then the isolation gap must be shorted. Only position 1 is used in the released PMP23069 board.
Got confused with position 2 as testpoints (as mentioned in the schematic)
So no need to place C52 & C53 on the Mainboard(while using GaN card at position 1) Thanks for the clarification.
May I know which GaN card is compatible for position 2?
Regards,
Hello,
Is there a C2000 card option where the card fits inside the power supply region? (within 68.1mm)
Regards,
I am talking about the mentioned width of the board
Is there a C2000 daughter card option that can be placed directly near J1 & J2?
Regards,
you will need to design your own control card to plug in J1&J2 directly. You can also check PMP23338, it is a similar design, the C2000 control card is plugged in directly.
