The maximum cable length supported by the DS90CR218AMTD/NOPB is 10 meters at 1.5 Gbps and 5 meters at 3 Gbps, assuming a good quality coaxial cable with a characteristic impedance of 75 ohms.
To ensure signal integrity, it is recommended to use a good quality coaxial cable, maintain a consistent impedance of 75 ohms, and minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI) in the system.
The power consumption of the DS90CR218AMTD/NOPB is typically 350 mW at 1.5 Gbps and 450 mW at 3 Gbps, assuming a 3.3V power supply.
The DS90CR218AMTD/NOPB can be configured for different data rates by adjusting the clock frequency and the transmitter equalization settings through the device's control pins or through an external microcontroller.
The latency of the DS90CR218AMTD/NOPB is typically around 10-20 ns, depending on the data rate and the cable length.
