SMBus Pull-Up Resistors

The SMBus interface uses open-drain clock and data inputs or outputs to enable device communication. The SDA and SDC lines each require a single 2kΩ to 5kΩ pull-up resistor. This codesign example offers multiple pull-up options.

  • R22 and R23 are populated by default. These are 4.7kΩ pull-ups to 3.3V supply.
  • R20 and R21 can be populated to use 2.7kΩ pull-ups to 2.5V supply near the retimer or redriver. These can be useful for debug purposes if the device SDA/SDC pins need to be disconnected from the main SMBus interface (by depopulating R24 and R25).
  • R30 and R31 can be populated to use 2.7kΩ pull-ups to 2.5V supply near the external EEPROM. These can be useful for debug purposes if the EEPROM SDA/SDC pins need to be disconnected from the main SMBus interface (by depopulating R32 and R33).
