HIN206EIAZA

Overview

The HIN206EIAZA is a +5V powered, RS-232 transmitter/receiver interface circuit from the HIN20xE family. It meets EIA high-speed RS-232E and V.28 specifications, designed for applications lacking ±12V supplies. The device features onboard charge pumps generating +10V and -10V from a single +5V source. It includes two drivers and two receivers with ±15kV ESD protection on bus pins. Key parameters include a data rate of 120kbps, propagation delay of 400ns (typical), and input impedance of 3kΩ to 7kΩ. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and utilizes a 16-pin SOICW package.

Feature Summary

• Integrated charge pump voltage converters eliminate the need for external dual-voltage power supplies by generating internal +10V and -10V rails from a single +5V input.
• High-speed transmitter circuit design improves data rate and slew rate, ensuring compatibility with ISDN and high-speed modem applications.
• Robust electrostatic discharge protection rated at ±15kV on both transmitter outputs and receiver inputs prevents latch-up and damage.
• Low-power shutdown mode significantly reduces energy consumption in battery-operated systems while maintaining active receiver functionality for wake-up capabilities.

Applications

• Portable computers, laptops, and mainframe systems requiring serial communication ports
• ISDN terminal adaptors and high-speed modems
• Industrial instrumentation and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) units

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'IAZA' against official Renesas documentation to confirm package type and temperature grade. Ensure ordering details match the required 16-pin SOICW format. Confirm RoHS compliance status and moisture sensitivity level prior to procurement. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet for any updates on lead-free plating or assembly location changes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems that require RS-232 connectivity but are constrained to a single +5V power rail. The HIN206EIAZA is suitable for designs needing two independent driver and receiver channels. Consider its 120kbps speed limit and ±15kV ESD rating for environments with moderate noise. Verify that the 16-pin SOICW footprint fits the PCB layout constraints compared to narrower SOIC options.

Part Context

This part belongs to the HIN20xE series of RS-232 transceivers originally developed by Intersil and now managed by Renesas Electronics. The series provides various combinations of drivers and receivers tailored for different interface needs. The HIN206 variant specifically offers a balanced configuration of two drivers and two receivers, making it a versatile choice for standard serial port implementations in embedded systems.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible alternatives within the same family include the HIN202E, HIN207E, and HIN208E, depending on the required number of drivers and receivers. Verify that substitute parts maintain the same +5V operation and ±15kV ESD protection levels. Check for identical package dimensions and thermal characteristics to ensure seamless integration without PCB redesign.
