SN65LBC173A Overview
Description
The SN65LBC173A and SN75LBC173A are quadruple differential line receivers with 3-state outputs, designed for TIA/EIA-485 (RS-485), TIA/EIA-422 (RS-422), and ISO 8482 (Euro RS-485) applications. These devices are optimized for balanced multipoint bus communication at data rates up to and exceeding 50 million bits per second.
Key Features
- ESD protection to 6 kV, making it suitable for high-speed multipoint data transmission applications in harsh environments
- These devices are designed using LinBiCMOSt, facilitating low power consumption and robustness
- The G and G inputs provide enable control logic for either positive- or negative-logic enabling all four drivers
- When disabled or powered off, the receiver inputs present a high-impedance to the bus for reduced system loading
- The SN75LBC173A is characterized for operation over the temperature range of 0°C t
