HIN206CB

Overview

The HIN206CB is a full-duplex RS-232 transceiver manufactured by Harris Corporation. It integrates four drivers and three receivers within a single integrated circuit. The device operates on a single +5V power supply and utilizes external 0.1µF capacitors for charge pump functionality, eliminating the need for dual voltage supplies. It is housed in a 24-SOIC surface-mount package with a width of 7.50mm (0.295 inches). This configuration supports standard serial communication protocols requiring full-duplex data transmission.

Feature Summary

• Integrates four independent drivers and three receivers for full-duplex RS-232 communication
• Operates from a single +5V power supply using external charge pump capacitors
• Designed for surface-mount assembly in a 24-pin SOIC package

Applications

• Serial port interface circuits in industrial equipment
• Data communication modules requiring RS-232 connectivity
• Embedded systems utilizing microcontroller-based serial links

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Harris Corporation or its successors, such as Renesas Electronics America Inc., due to corporate acquisitions. Confirm the package type is strictly 24-SOIC. Ensure the component matches the specific pinout and electrical characteristics defined in the official datasheet before integration into designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a design requires multiple driver and receiver channels within a single IC footprint. It is suitable for applications needing full-duplex operation without complex external voltage generation. Consider the 24-SOIC package constraints for PCB layout and thermal management during the selection process.

Part Context

This part belongs to the family of +5V powered RS-232 transceivers. It shares functional similarities with other models like the HIN202CB but offers a higher channel count. The series is characterized by low power consumption and compatibility with standard RS-232 signal levels.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify compatibility with direct replacements only through official cross-reference lists from the current manufacturer.
