GM491E

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

GM491E 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 pin; not internally connected.
2 RO output Receiver output: RO goes high if A is more than 200mV above B and goes low if A is more than 200mV below B.
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: the driver 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 reference; all voltages are referenced to device ground unless otherwise specified.
7 GND power_in Ground reference; all voltages are referenced to device ground unless otherwise specified.
8 N.C. unconnected No connect pin; not internally connected.
9 Y output Non-inverting driver output, enabled by DE high and high impedance when DE is low.
10 Z output Inverting driver output, enabled by DE high and 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 pin; not internally connected.
14 VCC power_in Positive supply, specified at 4.75V ≤ VCC ≤ 5.25V; the datasheet recommends bypassing VCC with 0.1µF.
