Pin Descriptions

PIN

FUNCTION

RO

Receiver output: If A-B

≥ -50mV, RO is high; If A-B ≤ -200mV, RO is low; RO = High if A and B are unconnected (floating) or shorted, or

connected to a terminated bus that is undriven.

RE

Receiver output enable. RO is enabled when RE is low; RO is high impedance when RE is high. If the Rx enable function isn’t

required, connect RE directly to GND.

DE

Driver output enable. The driver outputs, Y and Z, are enabled by bringing DE high. They are high impedance when DE is low. If the

DI

Driver input. A low on DI forces output Y low and output Z high. Similarly, a high on DI forces output Y high and output Z low.

GND

Ground connection. This is also the potential of the DFN thermal pad.

A/Y

DE = 0; pin is an output (Y) if DE = 1.

B/Z

pin is an output (Z) if DE = 1.

System power supply input (4.5V to 5.5V).

NC

No Connection.
