addressing high performance requirements for Burn-in
and Test applications – SBT-BGA-6538. The contactor
is a stamped spring pin with 31 gram actuation force
per ball and cycle life of 125,000 insertions. The self
inductance of the contactor is 0.88 nH, insertion loss
of < 1 dB at 15.7 GHz and capacitance 0.097pF. The
current capacity of each contactor is 4 amps at 80C
temperature rise. Socket temperature range is -55C to
+180C. Socket features a floating guide for precise ball
to pin alignment. Socket also includes additional floating
compression plate that has a cavity to accommodate
PoP devices. The specific configuration of the package
to be tested in the SBT-BGA-6538 is BGA, 14x17mm
body size, 0.65mm pitch and 20×25 ball array. To use,
drop IC into the socket, place floating compression plate,
swivel the lid, and apply down force using compression
screw. This socket can be used for hand test and quick
turn custom burn-in applications with the most stringent
requirements.
Pricing for the SBT-BGA-6538 is $811 at qty 1 with
reduced pricing available depending on quantity
required.
TI’s new USB Type-C™ and Power Delivery
3.0 devices improve power and data transfer,
signal quality, and circuit protection
Expanding the industry’s most comprehensive portfolio
of USB-compliant integrated circuits (ICs), Texas
Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) today introduced five
new USB Type-C and Power Delivery (PD) devices that
enable engineers to design USB Type-C electronics
with better signal quality and protection against system
damage.
The TUSB1046 family of linear redrivers is the industry’s
first to support 10G USB data and DisplayPort™ 1.4
video transfer, enabling faster transmission without
signal integrity degradation. To prevent hard field failure,
the TPD8S300 family includes the industry’s first single-
chip solution to protect USB Type-C and PD systems
from overvoltage damage. Additionally, the new
TPS65983B USB PD 3.0 controller enables a complete
system design and more reliable power and data transfer
with integrated power path, fast role swap hardware,
authentication support and standardized voltages. For
more information, see
www.ti.com/usbtypecpd2016-pr-eu.
Faster data and video transfer
The new TUSB1046 and TUSB1002 redrivers support
twice the data bandwidth of current 5G USB solutions,
enabling 10G data and video transfer with up to 8K
resolution, while consuming only 335 mW of active
power at 10G USB speeds. The redrivers compensate
channel loss up to 14.4 dB when transmitted over long
traces and cables. Additionally, 16 equalization levels
optimize performance by compensating intersymbol
interference jitter and signal attenuation, enabling better
interoperability and connectivity with other devices.
TI’s 10G linear redriver family is pin-to-pin compatible
with TI’s family of 5G USB devices, enabling seamless
speed upgrades in existing designs.
Overvoltage port protection
Using up to 75 percent less board space than a discrete
implementation, the TPD8S300 and TPD6S300
devices protect against overvoltage damage caused
by a DC short to the 20-V bus voltage (Vbus) on the
configuration channel (CC) and sideband use (SBU)
pins, while maintaining signal integrity. The port
protectors integrate transient voltage suppression
(TVS) diodes with low-clamping performance to provide
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 61000-
4-2 electrostatic discharge protection (ESD) and protect
the downstream PD controller.
Fully managed power path
The TPS65983B single-chip device is the only USB PD
3.0 controller that fully integrates the power path, while
providing overcurrent, overvoltage, reverse current and
thermal protection. The controller features fast role swap
for sink or source implementations to give designers
maximum flexibility.
