MC3486DE4

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MC3486DE4 is a quadruple differential line receiver manufactured by Texas Instruments, designed to meet ANSI TIA/EIA-422-B and TIA/EIA-423-B standards. It features four independent receivers with TTL-compatible outputs housed in a 16-pin SOIC-Narrow package. The device operates on a single 5 V supply voltage, drawing a maximum operating current of 85 mA. It supports data rates up to 10 Mb/s and functions within an ambient temperature range of 0°C to +70°C.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Provides four independent differential-input line receivers with TTL-compatible outputs
• Utilizes 3-state circuitry to maintain high-impedance states when output enable is low
• Designed for optimum performance when paired with the MC3487 quadruple differential line driver

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Industrial communication systems requiring RS-422 or RS-423 compliance
• Data acquisition and sensing instrumentation interfaces
