ISL3179EIUZ

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The ISL3179EIUZ is a single RS-485/RS-422 transceiver manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It operates on a single 3.3V power supply and supports data rates up to 40 Mb/s. The device features high ESD protection compliant with IEC61000 standards, ensuring robust performance in harsh environments. It presents a low bus current load of +220µA/-150µA, equivalent to a 1/5 unit load, allowing for extensive network configurations without repeaters. The receiver inputs incorporate a full fail-safe design to maintain a logic high output during floating or shorted conditions. Hot plug circuitry keeps outputs in a high impedance state during power-up.
