A good PCB layout for the MAX3748AETE-T involves keeping the input and output traces short and wide, using a solid ground plane, and placing the device close to the power supply. Additionally, it's recommended to use a 4-layer PCB with a dedicated power plane and a dedicated ground plane.
The MAX3748AETE-T requires a single 3.3V or 5V power supply. It's recommended to power the device with a low-noise, low-ESR power supply. The power sequencing requirements are not critical, but it's recommended to power the device after the input signals are stable.
The MAX3748AETE-T can support data rates up to 3.2Gbps, making it suitable for high-speed applications such as HDMI, DisplayPort, and USB 3.0.
The MAX3748AETE-T has internal 50Ω termination resistors, but can be configured for different input and output impedance using external resistors. The datasheet provides a table to calculate the required resistor values for different impedance settings.
The MAX3748AETE-T operates over a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, making it suitable for industrial and commercial applications.
