9.3 Initialization Set Up

The DS280MB810 does not require any particular start-up or initialization sequence. The device defaults to a medium boost value for each channel. It is recommend that the channels be appropriately configured before data traffic is transmitted to the DS280MB810 to avoid issues with the link partner ASIC's adaption. If using pin-mode to control the cross-point switch (Shared Reg_0x05[1]=1), it is recommended that the mux and fanout configuration be set before data traffic is transmitted so that the desired signal routing and distribution is achieved. Example configuration settings can be found in the DS280MB810 Programming Guide.
