Hi,
My customer asked us following question about sysboot[1] of "AM335x_ICE Board".
To begin w/, here are tips about "AM335x_ICE Board".
According to schematic of "AM335x_ICE board",
1. User can select pull up (10kohm) or pull down (100kohm) by setting "J5" connector for sysboot[1].
2. Sysboot[1] connect to both "TX_EN" of TLK110 and "MII1_TXEN" of AM335x.
3. Internal Pull down (From 14.5k to 48.1kohm) is used in "TX_EN" pin.
Here is question.
* According to Datasheet of AM335x, VIH(min) for sysboot[1] is 2V.
However, when worst internal pull down value are used TLK110 and sysboot[1] is connected to pull up by setting "J5" connector, VIH of AM335x does NOT meet.
(Please see following calculation.)
Pull up resistor : 10k
Pull down resistor of TLK110(TX_EN pin) : 14.5k (worst case)
VAUX2 : 3.3V
Then, input voltage to "MII1_TXEN" pin (sysboot[1] function) = 3.3 x (14.5k / (10k + 14.5k)) = 1.953V
(This does NOT reach 2V(VIH(min)).)
So, could you tell me why you used 10k for pull up resisitor ?
Best Regards,
Machida
Hi Machida-san,
The TLK110 I/O pins are High-Z when the PHY is held in reset, and SYSBOOT values are latched on power-on reset release.
