SN65176BDRG4

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SN65176BDRG4 is a half-duplex RS-485 transceiver manufactured by Texas Instruments, designed for bidirectional data communication on multi-drop buses. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.75 V to 5.25 V and supports data rates up to 10 Mb/s. The device integrates one driver and one receiver in an SOIC-8 surface-mount package. It functions across an extended industrial temperature range from -40°C to +105°C with a typical quiescent current of 70 mA. This component complies with RoHS standards and includes a shutdown feature for power management.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'G4' against official Texas Instruments documentation to confirm it denotes lead-free packaging compliance rather than a functional deviation. Ensure the ordering part number matches the required SOIC-8 tape and reel configuration. Cross-reference the datasheet revision to confirm the active status and any recent parameter updates before finalizing procurement specifications.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring robust RS-485 connectivity with high noise immunity. It is suitable for applications needing operation over wide temperature ranges without external ESD protection circuitry. Compare against the standard SN65176BDR if lead-free certification is mandatory for the target market regulations.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context
