Sitara AM243x/AM64x Solution: AM243x and AM64x SoCs can support upto 5 ethernet ports. These consist of two independent switches, and one independent MAC port (Although, internally, they are 3 independent 3-port switches). We need to employ SW switching to transport the packets between the switches, and to implement the Splitter logic. This would mean, the maximum throughput which can be supported is limited to around 100 Mbps, even though the individual ports can support 1Gbps. This is the relatively mode budget oriented solution Jacinto J7/TDA4 solution: Jacinto platforms support upto CPSW 9G, which have 8 external MAC ports and an internal Hostport, and can be configured into a splitter/merger configuration. There are also options with CPSW 5G, where there are 4 external MAC ports, and one host port. This is completely HW based switching and can support upto 1Gbps switching speeds. This is a hgher end solution with higher pricing as well as more compute compared to Sitara offerings. Please let us know which solution you are looking towards, and we can support you to identify the better fit to your application and requirement. Thanks and regards, Teja.</description></item><item><title>Forum Post: RE: TMUX7462F: TMUX7462F: drain pin absolute maximum (VFP + 0.7 V) vs. drain levels blocked when powered off</title><link>https://e2e.ti.com/support/switches-multiplexers-group/switches-multiplexers/f/switches-multiplexers-forum/1694733/tmux7462f-tmux7462f-drain-pin-absolute-maximum-vfp-0-7-v-vs-drain-levels-blocked-when-powered-off/6530044</link><pubDate>Wed, 04 Nov 2026 09:51:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">cb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:63096b58-d2c2-4e09-9e84-fa712e628ca3</guid><dc:creator>Andreas Mueller</dc:creator><description>Hello Jiahui, I&amp;#39;m supporting the TPS devices... Please be aware that the TPS60403 is an unregulated inverter. Basically it generates Vout = -Vin, whereby the output voltage drops a bit with load due to losses in the switches and in the capacitors ESR. This means: For the mentioned case of +5 V LDO supply of the TPS60403 you will get approximately VSS = -5 V at its output (without load). The losses and with this the output voltage drop towards GND are depending on the ESR of the flying cap and the output cap you chose for this application (see equation 2 on page 11 of the datasheet ). A typical output voltage range at 3.3 V input voltage is shown below: From your comments it seems that 10 mA would be the worst case load condition. For Vin = 3.3 V and Iout = 10 mA the data points of the plotted output voltages would be Vout = -3.1888 V at 85 &amp;#176;C, -3.1992 V at 25 &amp;#176;C and -3.2036 V at -40&amp;#176;C. For the voltage drop this means 111.2 mV at 85 &amp;#176;C, 100.8 mV at 25 &amp;#176;C and 96.4 mV at -40 &amp;#176;C. I think ca. 30 mVpp of ripple can be assumed at 10 mA load. So, the mentioned 250.5 mV headroom should be sufficient to cover for voltage drop + ripple. Please pay special attention to low ESR of the capacitors. Please refer to table 9-2 in the datasheet for recommended capacitor types. If you need a regulated inverter for maintaining VSS = -3 V in the condition of +5 V supply then the LM27761 could be evaluated. The remaining headroom for the +3.2505 V supply case might be a bit tight for maintaining -3 V output voltage with the LM27761. Unfortunately I don&amp;#39;t have any measurement data for this case. A third alternative would be a buck converter, operated in inverting buck-boost configuration. Such application should be able to maintain a regulated -3.3 V output voltage for a wide range of input supply voltage. Here is some collateral, explaining more details: &amp;quot; Using the TPS62120 in an Inverting Buck-Boost Topology &amp;quot;. Let me know if you have any questions.

There is no fault protection on the drain pins, only on the source pins. The page 4 statement is correct about the drain pins and the statement on page 26 is only for the source pins. 2. There is an ESD diode on the drain side, so if you exceed the rating you will reverse bias the diode and back power the device. Since you are limiting the current to be below 1mA this shouldn&amp;#39;t be an issue. 3. The device is guaranteed off at 0V and on at 8V, anything in between is undefined. 4. We don&amp;#39;t, the only information we have is what is in the datasheet For questions 5 to 9, we don&amp;#39;t have information for such cases. I recommend referencing the overvoltage leakage graphs on pages 16 and 17. Another option is for the customer to test the parts themselves in these specific cases. 10. I don&amp;#39;t support the TPS part, let me loop in the right team. We recommend the drain to stay within recommended operation conditions. The VFP + 0.7 V specification is a stress conditions and shouldn&amp;#39;t be followed. A Schottky, or even a diode will work. Overall, if you limit the current below the source or drain continuous current spec, you should be fine without an external component on the drain side.

What does that mean for the analog input signals? The absolute max. ratings on page 4 limit the analog input voltage to (V+) + 0.5 V. With V+ = 0 that would be only 0.5 V. I think that contradicts data in the power-off rows (e.g., I NC(PWROFF) ) which characterize input signals up to 5.5 V with the chip unpowered to exhibit leakage currents in the &amp;#181;A regime. I assume that if there were ordinary protection diodes from the signal pins to V+, an unpowered chip with 5 V on a pin would conduct milliamps, not &amp;#181;A.

According to the datasheet, the TMUX7612 specifies a maximum continuous switch current (IDC) of 470 mA at an ambient temperature of 25&amp;#176;C. I would like to clarify how this current rating should be interpreted when multiple internal switches are operating simultaneously. My questions are: Is the 470 mA continuous switch current rating specified per individual switch/channel, assuming only one of the four internal switches is ON? If all four switches are ON simultaneously, can each switch independently carry 400 mA continuously, meaning a total current of 1.6 A distributed across the four channels? If the 470 mA rating is applicable per channel, are there any additional restrictions on the total package power dissipation or maximum allowable current when multiple channels are conducting simultaneously? Does TI provide a derating guideline, thermal calculation, or recommended maximum continuous current per channel when two, three, or all four switches are ON simultaneously? Application details: I am considering using the TMUX7612 in a PMU switching matrix with the following configurations: 500 mA current range: Two switches connected in parallel, carrying approximately 250 mA per switch. 1.2 A current range: Four switches connected in parallel, carrying approximately 300 mA per switch. The objective is to determine whether the TMUX7612 can reliably support these configurations under continuous-current operation, while maintaining the device within its specified electrical and thermal operating limits. I would appreciate your clarification on the current rating interpretation and any thermal considerations for simultaneous operation of multiple channels. Thank you for your support.</description><category domain="https://e2e.ti.com/support/switches-multiplexers-group/switches-multiplexers/tags/TMUX7612">TMUX7612</category></item><item><title>Forum Post: HD3SS3220: HD3SS3220IRNHR Not working</title><link>https://e2e.ti.com/support/switches-multiplexers-group/switches-multiplexers/f/switches-multiplexers-forum/1694867/hd3ss3220-hd3ss3220irnhr-not-working</link><pubDate>Tue, 03 Nov 2026 09:55:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">cb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:81f936fd-bbd4-47e8-8b11-494cb5cc4d56</guid><dc:creator>jay Carlo</dc:creator><description>Part Number: HD3SS3220 Hello, I have design our custom board using ULPI USB3320 and USB3.1 superspeed TUSB1002RGER and DRP HD3SS3220IRNHR.

Our supply arrangement: - VDD = VFP = +5 V through a TPS22918 load switch with quick output discharge, turned off by a TPS3840 supervisor on the ADC supply. - VSS = VFN = about -3.3 V from a TPS60403 inverter. On one side the inverter is fed by its own TPS7A2033 LDO from +5 V (behind a BAT54 input blocker), so VSS also collapses after +5 V is lost, at the rate its capacitors set. On the other side the inverter shares the ADC&amp;#39;s +3.3 V analog supply, so VSS can stay up after VDD is gone. - DR tied to VDD (drain Hi-Z on a fault). GND connected. - Source: behind external clamp strings with 4.99 kOhm in series; the clamped node stays within about +/-1.5 V in normal use and under faults. - Drain: 2.49 kOhm in series to the ADS131M08 input, 1.2 nF (voltage channels) or 220 pF (current channels) to ground at the ADC pin, and a 100 kOhm bleed to ground. No active source on the drain side. ADC input absolute maximum AGND - 1.6 V to AVDD + 0.3 V, pin current +/-10 mA. With VDD removed and VSS still present, the part sits at VDD = 0 V, VSS = -3.3 V, VDD - VSS = 3.3 V, below the UVLO minimum of 5.0 V (falling), so it is &amp;quot;powered-off&amp;quot; by the definition on page 25. The statements we cannot reconcile: - Absolute maximum ratings, page 4: VD, drain pin (Dx) voltage, VFN - 0.7 V min, VFP + 0.7 V max. With VFP = 0 V that is +0.7 V max on the drain. - Section 8.3.2.2, page 26: &amp;quot;Source and drain voltage levels of up to +/-60 V are blocked in the powered-off condition.&amp;quot; - Page 28: &amp;quot;The voltage on the drain is only allowed to swing between VFP and VFN and no overvoltage protection is available on the drain side.&amp;quot; The case that matters to us: an input fault (+12 V or +60 V behind the clamp) is present while +5 V is lost quickly (a hard short or a 20 us drop). The ADC supply stays up, so the source node sits at about +1.4 V, the channel stays on until VDD - VSS falls through UVLO, and the drain node and its capacitor are left at about +1.3 V while VFP has already fallen toward 0 V. A simulation of an earlier revision showed the drain up to about 0.6 V past VFP + 0.7 V for under 20 us, with drain current in the microamp range, while the bleed and the ADC input discharge it. That is a model result, not a measurement. Questions: 1. In the powered-off condition (VDD = 0 V, VSS = -3.3 V, GND present), which rating applies to the drain pins: the page 4 absolute maximum (VFP + 0.7 V) or the page 26 statement that drain levels up to +/-60 V are blocked? Is the page 26 statement meant for the source pins only? 2. If the page 4 limit applies: what is the failure mechanism on the drain side when VD exceeds VFP + 0.7 V (we assume an ESD diode from Dx to VFP/VDD), and is a short excursion (about +1.3 V on Dx, under 20 us, current limited by the external network to well under 1 mA) acceptable, or must the drain be held within VFP + 0.7 V at all times? 3. Between the UVLO threshold (5.0 to 6.4 V) and the 8 V minimum VDD - VSS in the recommended operating conditions: is the switch guaranteed off, guaranteed on, or undefined? We cross this window on every power-up and power-down. 4. The leakage tables are specified at VS = +/-60 V. Is there any data for source and drain leakage with the supplies removed (or VDD = 0 V and VSS = -3.3 V) and a source voltage of only about +/-1.5 V? Please also answer for each of these cases, for a +/-60 V level on a source pin and for a +/-1.5 V level (the clamped node), giving the guaranteed drain voltage or leakage and the rating that applies: 5. All four supply pins (VDD, VSS, VFP, VFN) at 0 V and grounded; GND present; with DR grounded and with DR tied to VDD. 6. All four supply pins floating (unpowered, no path to ground); GND present. 7. Mixed: VDD = VFP = 0 V grounded with VSS = VFN still at -3.3 V; and the reverse, VSS = VFN = 0 V with VDD = VFP = +5 V (the inverter lost first). 8. Transitions: power-up with the fault already present at the source (VDD rising through UVLO while VDD - VSS is below the 8 V operating minimum), and power-down with the fault present (VDD falling through UVLO, then VSS collapsing). 9. For each case, whether a drain-side pull to a still-powered ADC rail (through 2.49 kOhm, 100 kOhm bleed, 220 pF) violates any rating, and the maximum drain leakage into that node. 10. A related question on the TPS60403 that supplies VSS/VFN: what is its maximum output resistance (or minimum output voltage at a stated load) with VIN = 3.3 V over -40 to 85 C? The datasheet&amp;#39;s 15 Ohm maximum is at VIN = 5 V, 25 C only. Our budget needs VSS at or below -3.000 V at the TMUX pins so VDD - VSS stays at or above 8 V with VDD at its 5.000 V minimum; the LDO feeding the inverter guarantees 3.2505 V minimum, leaving 250.5 mV for the inverter&amp;#39;s loss and ripple at a load in the microamp to low-milliamp range. If no bound exists, please say so and we will measure it. If the drain must stay within VFP + 0.7 V at all times, we would appreciate TI&amp;#39;s recommended approach: for example a Schottky from Dx to VDD, keeping VDD ungated and gating something else, or a different part in the family that specifies the drain side when unpowered.

It is clear that the CC1/CC2 pin voltages are incorrect and because of this, ID pin is not being pulled low, so VBUS cannot work properly. Looking at just the schematic again, the only potential issue I am seeing is that the AC coupling capacitors - they are out of our recommended range of 75nF to 200 nF. Please replace them with appropriately sized capacitors and let me know if that fixes the issue. If the issue persists, please monitor the voltage on the ID pin and let me know what you see in each circumstance. I2C mode settings should not affect the ability of the MUX to control/ recognize the proper orientation. Best, Katy</description></item></channel></rss>
