EQCO62T20.3-TRAY

Overview

The EQCO62T20.3-TRAY is a CoaXPress driver component from Microchip Technology, designed for bidirectional communication over a single 75Ω coaxial cable. It supports downlink data rates up to 6.25 Gbps and an uplink rate of 21 Mbps. The device operates with a 1.2V supply voltage and consumes less than 70 mW. It features an integrated low-speed receiver and supports power distribution over the coax line up to 900 mA. The component is housed in a 16-pin, 4x4 mm QFN package with a 0.65 mm pin pitch.

Feature Summary

• Complies with the CoaXPress v1.1 camera standard for high-definition links
• Enables full-duplex bidirectional data transmission over a single 75Ω coax cable
• Supports simultaneous power distribution over the coaxial cable alongside data signals
• Features auto-adaptive equalization to compensate for cable attenuation

Applications

• Machine vision for semiconductor chips and display panel inspection systems
• Military, aerospace, and medical applications requiring high-bandwidth links
• Broadcast and surveillance camera systems
• Traffic license plate and monitoring systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix '-TRAY' against official documentation to confirm packaging format, as datasheets may reference bulk or reel options. Confirm current availability status, as discontinuation notices exist for related EQCO62 series components. Ensure compatibility with required external inductors and ferrite beads for proper RF performance and power transmission functionality.

Selection Notes

Select this driver when implementing the camera-side endpoint of a CoaXPress link. It pairs with the EQCO62R20.3 equalizer on the frame grabber side. Consider the EQCO31T20 variant if lower speeds suffice. Ensure PCB layout strictly follows recommended guidelines to maintain signal integrity at multi-gigabit speeds.

Part Context

This component belongs to the EQCO62T/R20 chipset family developed by Microchip Technology (formerly EqcoLogic). The chipset provides asymmetric coax driver and equalizer solutions specifically optimized for CoaXPress camera interfaces. It enables long-distance transmission over standard coaxial cables while integrating control and power delivery capabilities.
