5 Description (continued)

Integrated AC coupling capacitors (RX side) eliminate the need for external capacitors on the PCB. The DS280MB810 has a single power supply and minimal need for external components. These features reduce PCB routing complexity and bill of materials (BOM) cost.

A pin-compatible Retimer device with cross-point is available for longer reach applications.

The DS280MB810 can be configured either through the SMBus or through an external EEPROM. Up to 16 devices can share a single EEPROM.
