AM26C32IDRE4

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The AM26C32IDRE4 is a quad differential line receiver integrated circuit from Texas Instruments, designed for RS-422 communication interfaces. It operates on a single 5V supply with a voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V. The device features four independent receivers in a 16-pin TSSOP package. Key electrical specifications include a propagation delay of 7ns and an operating supply current of 3mA. It supports data rates up to 10 Mb/s and functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Provides four independent differential receivers for RS-422 signal processing
• CMOS technology ensures low power consumption and high noise immunity
• Supports high-speed data transmission with fast propagation delay characteristics

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• RS-422 serial communication interface circuits
• Industrial control systems requiring differential signaling
• Data acquisition systems with long-distance transmission needs

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix 'E4' confirms lead-free compliance and RoHS status as per manufacturer documentation. Confirm the tape and reel packaging format matches production requirements. Ensure the 16-pin TSSOP footprint aligns with PCB design constraints before finalizing procurement orders.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a quad receiver configuration is required for RS-422 networks. Compare against the AM26C31 series if transmitter functionality is also needed, as the AM26C32 contains only receivers. Verify that the 10 Mb/s speed capability meets system timing requirements and that the wide operating temperature range suits the environmental conditions.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the AM26C32 family of CMOS quad differential line receivers. It is functionally compatible with other industry-standard RS-422 receivers but offers specific Texas Instruments packaging and reliability characteristics. The 'IDRE4' designation indicates the industrial temperature grade, SOIC/TSSOP variant, and lead-free manufacturing process.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

The AM26C32IDR is the non-lead-free equivalent. For transceiver applications, consider the AM26C31 series. Always verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameters against the specific datasheet revision before substituting.
