Texas Instruments provides a recommended PCB layout in the datasheet, but it's also recommended to follow the guidelines in the 'DS90C365A PCB Layout Guidelines' application note (SLUA533) for optimal performance.
To ensure signal integrity, it's essential to follow proper PCB design and layout practices, such as using differential pairs, minimizing trace lengths, and using termination resistors. Additionally, the DS90C365A has built-in features like programmable output swing and pre-emphasis to help improve signal integrity.
The maximum cable length supported by the DS90C365AMTX/NOPB depends on the specific application and the type of cable used. However, as a general guideline, the device can support cable lengths up to 10 meters at a data rate of 1.5 Gbps.
The DS90C365AMTX/NOPB is a highly configurable device, and the configuration process involves setting various registers and programming the device using the I2C interface. Texas Instruments provides a detailed programming guide in the datasheet and application notes to help with the configuration process.
The DS90C365AMTX/NOPB has specific power sequencing requirements to ensure proper operation. The device requires a power-on sequence of VCCIO, then VCCA, and finally VCCPLL. The power-down sequence should be reversed. Refer to the datasheet for more information on power sequencing.
