Texas Instruments provides a recommended PCB layout in the datasheet, but it's essential to follow good high-speed design practices, such as using a solid ground plane, minimizing trace lengths, and using differential pairs for clock and data signals.
To ensure signal integrity, use controlled impedance traces, minimize vias and stubs, and use termination resistors as recommended in the datasheet. Additionally, simulate your design using tools like IBIS or SPICE to verify signal integrity.
The maximum cable length supported by the DS90CR288AMTD/NOPB depends on the specific application and the type of cable used. As a general guideline, the datasheet recommends keeping cable lengths under 10 meters for optimal performance.
To troubleshoot issues with the DS90CR288AMTD/NOPB, use tools like oscilloscopes and logic analyzers to verify signal integrity and protocol compliance. Check the device's configuration and programming, and consult the datasheet and application notes for guidance.
Yes, the DS90CR288AMTD/NOPB can be used in a multi-lane configuration to increase bandwidth and reduce latency. However, this requires careful planning and design to ensure proper signal routing and synchronization.
