ISL8487E Overview
Key Specifications
Package: SOIC
Mount Type: Surface Mount
Pins: 8
Operating Voltage: 5 V
Key Features
- The receiver (Rx) inputs feature a “fail-safe if open” design, which ensures a logic high Rx output if Rx inputs are floating
- The driver (Tx) outputs are short-circuit protected, even for voltages exceeding the power supply voltage
- Additionally, on-chip thermal shutdown circuitry disables the Tx outputs to prevent damage if power dissipation becomes excessive
- The half duplex devices multiplex the Rx inputs and Tx outputs to allow transceivers with Rx and Tx disab
