PRODUCTION DATA
During implementation of a USB Type-C with DP alternate mode, the AC coupling capacitors must be placed carefully. Figure 7-3 depicts the AC coupling capacitor placement for typical applications. Note TMUXHS4446 supports a Vcm range, not exceeding the typical range of 0 – 1.8V. Note the AC caps are used only on TX pins on both source and sink ends. However, if there is an application where such Vcm range is not assured, TI recommends to make changes on AC coupling capacitor placements. Figure 7-4 illustrates such implementation. Additional optional AC coupling capacitors are used for RX pins. In detailed source schematic shown in Figure 7-2 such capacitors are marked as CRX and TI recommends them to be 0.5μF.
