HIN202CBNZ

Overview

The HIN202CBNZ is an RS-232 interface integrated circuit manufactured by Renesas Electronics. It operates on a single +5V power supply, with a minimum voltage of 4.5V and a maximum of 5.5V. The device features one driver and two receivers, supporting full-duplex communication at data rates up to 120 kb/s. It utilizes a SOIC-Wide-16 package for surface mount installation. The component draws 15 mA of operating current and functions within a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. Unlike the E-series variants, this model does not include built-in electrostatic discharge protection.

Feature Summary

• Single-supply operation using onboard charge pumps to generate required voltages from a +5V source
• Integrated receiver inputs with hysteresis to enhance noise rejection capabilities
• Drivers feature true TTL/CMOS input compatibility and slew-rate-limited outputs
• Receivers tolerate high input voltages up to ±30V

Applications

• Portable computer serial ports
• Printers and terminals
• Instrumentation systems
• Modems and ISDN terminal adaptors

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CBNZ' against official Renesas documentation to confirm the wide SOIC package and lack of ESD protection. Ensure the order matches the non-E variant requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this part when ESD protection is unnecessary or handled externally, as it lacks the ±15kV protection found in the E-series. It is suitable for standard industrial environments where the 0°C to +70°C temperature range is sufficient. Compare against the HIN202ECBNZ if higher data rates or ESD immunity are required.

Part Context

This component belongs to the HIN202E family of RS-232 transmitters and receivers designed for applications where ±12V supplies are unavailable. While sharing core functionality with protected variants, the CBNZ designation indicates a specific package and feature set without integrated ESD safeguards, targeting cost-sensitive or controlled-environment designs.

Replacement Considerations

The HIN202ECBNZ serves as a direct functional substitute but includes ±15kV ESD protection. Verify that the additional protection aligns with system design requirements. Other family members like the HIN206E offer different driver/receiver counts.
