HIN202IBNZ-T

Overview

The HIN202IBNZ-T is an RS-232 transceiver integrated circuit manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It complies with EIA high-speed RS-232E and V.28 specifications, designed for systems requiring high-speed serial communication without ±12V power supplies. The device integrates two drivers and two receivers, supporting data rates up to 120 kbps. It operates on a single +5V supply (4.5V to 5.5V) and utilizes onboard charge pumps to generate required voltage levels using only 0.1µF external capacitors. Packaged in a 16-SOIC format, it functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Complies with EIA high-speed RS-232E and V.28 standards for reliable serial communication
• Operates from a single +5V power supply with onboard charge pump voltage conversion
• Integrates two drivers and two receivers for full-duplex data transmission
• Features redesigned transmitter circuits to enhance data rate and slew rate performance

Applications

• ISDN terminal adapters requiring high-speed RS-232 interfaces
• High-speed modem connections in computer peripheral systems
• Industrial instrumentation and control equipment
• Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) management ports

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'NZ' against official Renesas documentation to confirm lead-free status and RoHS compliance details. Confirm package dimensions match the standard 16-SOIC specification. Ensure ordering quantities align with distributor reel or tube availability policies. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with current Renesas product selectors to verify active status and lifecycle stage before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems that require dual-channel RS-232 communication powered solely by a 5V rail. It is suitable for applications needing 120 kbps data rates where space constraints limit capacitor size. Compare against the HIN202EIBNZ-T if higher 230 kbps speeds are required. Ensure the design environment supports the specified -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range.

Part Context

This part belongs to the HIN202 family of RS-232 transceivers originally developed by Intersil and acquired by Renesas. The family shares common architecture features such as single-supply operation and charge-pump technology. Variants within the family differ primarily in driver/receiver counts, data speed capabilities, and ESD protection levels. This specific model represents the industrial-grade version with defined thermal limits.

Replacement Considerations

The HIN202EIBNZ-T serves as a direct functional upgrade offering increased data rates. Standard replacements include the MAX202E or SP3232EE, though pinouts and capacitor requirements may differ. Verify compatibility with existing PCB layouts and software timing parameters when substituting.
