Product Description: SN75176AP from Texas Instruments
The SN75176AP from Texas Instruments is a highly reliable differential bus transceiver designed to meet the rigorous demands of contemporary digital data transmission systems. This device is designed for balanced transmission lines and meets ANSI Standards TIA/EIA-422-B and TIA/EIA-485-A.
The SN75176AP is a monolithic, differential line driver and receiver pair designed as building blocks for TIA/EIA-485, TIA/EIA-422, ISO 8482, and ISO 10626 compliant, high-speed, party-line (multipoint) data buses. It is designed for balanced data transmission and complies with both EIA Standards RS-485 and RS-422. Its superior performance makes it ideal for long transmission lines in industrial and commercial applications.
The SN75176AP is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C and is available in an 8-pin PDIP package. The device combines a 3-state differential line driver and a differential input line receiver, both of which operate from a single 5-V power supply. The driver and receiver have active-high and active-low enables, respectively, that can be externally connected to function as a direction control.
The SN75176AP features a wide common-mode voltage range, making it suitable for multi-point applications over long cable runs. It also includes thermal shutdown protection and high-impedance outputs, ensuring enhanced reliability and robust performance.
With its low power requirements and superior line noise immunity, the SN75176AP from Texas Instruments is an excellent choice for any application that requires robust, reliable digital data transmission. Whether you're designing a complex industrial control system or a simple point-to-point communication link, the SN75176AP delivers the performance and reliability you need.
