HIN202CBZ

Overview

The HIN202CBZ-T is an RS-232 interface integrated circuit manufactured by Renesas Electronics. It operates on a single +5V power supply, utilizing onboard charge pumps to generate the necessary positive and negative voltages for signal transmission. The device features two receivers and one driver, supporting data rates up to 120 kb/s. It is housed in a 16-pin SOIC-Wide package and functions within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. The component draws 15 mA of operating current and lacks built-in ESD protection.

Feature Summary

• Single-supply operation with internal voltage generation
• Dual receiver and single driver configuration
• TTL/CMOS input compatibility

Applications

• Portable computer serial ports
• Modem connections
• ISDN terminal adaptors

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging when ordering. Confirm the wide SOIC package variant matches the design footprint. Ensure the absence of ESD protection aligns with system-level requirements. Check RoHS compliance status for regulatory adherence. Validate the commercial temperature range against environmental conditions.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring dual receive channels and a single transmit channel. Consider the 120 kb/s speed limit for baud rate requirements. Evaluate the need for external ESD protection due to the lack of internal safeguards. Compare power consumption against battery-operated constraints. Verify package dimensions for PCB layout compatibility.

Part Context

This part belongs to the HIN202 family of RS-232 transceivers designed for high-speed communication. It serves as a bridge between TTL/CMOS logic levels and RS-232 standards. The family includes variants with different driver/receiver counts and ESD protection levels. It is commonly used in legacy serial communication interfaces.

Replacement Considerations

The HIN202ECBNZ-T offers similar functionality but includes 15 kV ESD protection and a narrow SOIC package. Verify pinout compatibility before substitution. Check if the increased data rate of 230 kb/s is required or beneficial.
