All,
After consulting with system vendors, I have made a pinout change in the
active cable spec proposal in 08-052. The Sense pin will change from B10
to B1, and B10 reverts to simple ground. Vcc stays at B13. People did a
detailed routing study and this modified arrangement is the least
invasive change and allows the easiest modification of existing boards.
I hope everyone is fine with this, it really affects Quellan the most at
this stage as we will need to respin our prototype cables.
I will upload the new spec by the end of the day, also incorporating the
feedback from the last conference call, and will go through it tomorrow
during the call.
Best,
