SN75LVDT388ADBTG4 datasheet by Texas Instruments

SN75LVDT388ADBTG4 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal performance?
  Texas Instruments provides a recommended PCB layout in the application note SLVAE03, which includes guidelines for component placement, routing, and thermal management to ensure optimal performance and minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI).
• How do I handle thermal shutdown and thermal warning in my design?
  The SN75LVDT388ADBTG4 has a built-in thermal shutdown feature that disables the device when the junction temperature exceeds 150°C. To handle thermal shutdown and warning, you can use the TSD (Thermal Shutdown) pin to monitor the device's thermal status and implement a thermal management strategy in your system design.
• What is the maximum cable length supported by the SN75LVDT388ADBTG4?
  The maximum cable length supported by the SN75LVDT388ADBTG4 depends on the specific application and the type of cable used. As a general guideline, Texas Instruments recommends keeping the cable length below 10 meters to ensure reliable data transmission. However, longer cable lengths may be possible with proper cable selection and system design.
• How do I ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) in my design?
  To ensure EMC in your design, follow the guidelines in the Texas Instruments application note SLVAE03, which provides recommendations for PCB layout, component selection, and shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ensure compliance with relevant EMC standards.
• What is the recommended power-up sequence for the SN75LVDT388ADBTG4?
  The recommended power-up sequence for the SN75LVDT388ADBTG4 is to apply power to the VCC pin first, followed by the VCCA pin. This ensures that the internal voltage regulators are properly initialized and that the device operates correctly.
