A 4-layer PCB with a solid ground plane and a separate power plane is recommended. Keep the analog and digital grounds separate and connect them at a single point. Use a low-ESR capacitor for power decoupling and place it close to the device.
Use a reliable communication protocol like SPI or I2C, and ensure proper signal termination and routing. Use a buffer or repeater if the distance between the devices is significant. Verify the clock frequency and data transfer rate are within the specified limits.
The maximum operating temperature range for the SCC2698 is -40°C to +85°C. However, it's recommended to operate the device within a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C for optimal performance and reliability.
Use an external power-on reset circuit or a dedicated IC to ensure a clean power-up sequence. For brown-out detection, use a voltage supervisor IC or implement a software-based detection mechanism to reset the device when the supply voltage drops below a certain threshold.
The SCC2698 has built-in ESD protection diodes, but it's still recommended to use external ESD protection devices, such as TVS diodes, to protect the device from electrostatic discharge. For latch-up prevention, ensure that the device is operated within the specified voltage and current limits, and avoid applying excessive voltage or current to the pins.
