GM3491E

GATEMODE · RS-485 / RS-422 ICs · SOP-14

GM3491E from GATEMODE, in a SOP-14. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 N.C. unconnected No connect, not internally connected.
2 RO output Receiver output: RO is high if A > B by 200mV and low if A < B by 200mV, and it is high-impedance when RE is high.
3 RE input Receiver output enable: RO is enabled when RE is low and is high-impedance when RE is high.
4 DE input Driver output enable: outputs Y and Z are enabled when DE is high and are high-impedance when DE is low.
5 DI input Driver input: a low on DI forces Y low and Z high, and a high on DI forces Y high and Z low.
6 GND power_in Ground.
7 GND power_in Ground.
8 N.C. unconnected No connect, not internally connected.
9 Y output Non-inverting driver output; high-impedance when DE is low.
10 Z output Inverting driver output; high-impedance when DE is low.
11 B input Inverting receiver input.
12 A input Non-inverting receiver input.
13 N.C. unconnected No connect, not internally connected.
14 VCC power_in Positive supply: 3.0V ≤ VCC ≤ 5.5V; do not operate the device with VCC > 5.5V.
