Overview
The TPD4E1U06DCKEVM is an evaluation module designed by Texas Instruments to showcase the capabilities of the TPD4E1U06, a quad-channel ultra-low capacitance Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection device. This module is engineered to facilitate 4-port analysis through a 100 Ω TMDS line or differential pair, making it ideal for evaluating the performance of the TPD4E1U06 in various high-speed applications.
The evaluation module features a Rogers Board RO4350 with specific dielectric properties, and it includes surface-mount SMP 50 Ω high-speed connectors. The board is divided into two sections: CALIBRATION and TPD4E1U06DCK, allowing for precise evaluation of the device under test without the need for de-soldering.
