218x Latchup? - duhlynn - Jul 26 11:42:00 2005
Anyone experienced latchup issues with the 218x series (ADSP2185M in
particular)?
Thanks

Only once in numerous designs.
The best I can recall it was ADSP-2184L (I have never seen a 218xM problem)
I was writing to a PLD with relatively long lines using the WR line. This
caused a Flag to fail on the other side of the DSP.
The solution was a small series R in the Write line (or a 10pF termination
at the PLD).
Any part can have a problem. This is almost always due to layout or design
flaws and not the chip.
If you can be more specific, I may have better ideas.
