GM485E

GATEMODE · RS-485 / RS-422 ICs · SOP-8

GM485E from GATEMODE, in a SOP-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 RO output Receiver output. With /RE low, RO is logic high when A-B ≥ -50mV and logic low when A-B ≤ -200mV. Drives a CMOS-level logic output to the host UART Rx.
2 /RE input Receiver output enable (active low). When /RE is low the RO output is enabled; when /RE is high RO is high-impedance. If /RE is high AND DE is low the device enters low-power shutdown mode (ICC ≈ 1nA typ).
3 DE input Driver output enable (active high). When DE is high the differential driver A/B is enabled; when DE is low the driver outputs are high-impedance. If /RE is high AND DE is low the device enters low-power shutdown mode.
4 DI input Driver data input. A logic low on DI forces the non-inverting driver output (A) low and the inverting output (B) high; a logic high forces A high and B low. Typically driven by the host UART Tx.
5 GND power_in Ground / device 0V reference.
6 A bidirectional Non-inverting receiver input and non-inverting driver output (RS-485/RS-422 bus line A). Withstands ±15kV HBM and ±12kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact discharge; input impedance ≈96kΩ (1/8 unit load). Absolute-max input voltage ±13V.
7 B bidirectional Inverting receiver input and inverting driver output (RS-485/RS-422 bus line B). Withstands ±15kV HBM and ±12kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact discharge; input impedance ≈96kΩ (1/8 unit load). Absolute-max input voltage ±13V.
8 VCC power_in Positive supply input, 3.0V ≤ VCC ≤ 5.5V (absolute max +7V). Bypass with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to GND close to the pin.
