HIN202CBN-T

Overview

The HIN202CBN-T is a dual RS-232 transceiver manufactured by Renesas Electronics, formerly Intersil. It operates on a single 5V supply with a voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V. The device features two drivers and two receivers, supporting data rates up to 120 kb/s. It is housed in a 16-pin SOIC-Wide package and is designed for surface mount installation. The component functions within an operating temperature range of 0°C to +70°C and draws a typical supply current of 15 mA. It lacks integrated ESD protection.

Feature Summary

• Dual driver and receiver configuration for full-duplex RS-232 communication
• Single 5V power supply operation compatible with standard logic levels
• Surface-mount packaging suitable for automated assembly processes

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring serial communication interfaces
• Computer peripherals utilizing RS-232 standards
• Embedded systems with limited power supply constraints

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Renesas Electronics or Intersil, as Harris Corporation does not produce this specific part number. Confirm the suffix 'T' indicates tape and reel packaging. Ensure the 'C' grade matches the required commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. Check RoHS compliance status through official datasheets before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-channel RS-232 interface is needed with low power consumption. Compare against the HIN202EIBZ-T if extended temperature ranges (-40°C to +85°C) or higher ESD protection (15 kV) are required. Verify that the 120 kb/s data rate meets system requirements, as faster alternatives exist within the same family.

Part Context

This part belongs to the HIN202 series of RS-232 transceivers. It shares architectural similarities with the HIN202IBZ and HIN202EIBZ but differs in temperature rating and ESD protection specifications. The 'CBN' designation typically refers to the plastic SOIC package variant within the commercial grade segment.

Replacement Considerations

The HIN202IBZ serves as a direct functional replacement with identical electrical characteristics but offers an extended industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). The HIN202EIBZ provides enhanced ESD protection (15 kV) and wider temperature tolerance. Verify pinout compatibility across all candidates.
