HT8487EARZ

HTCSEMI · RS-485/RS-422 ICs · SOP-8

HT8487EARZ from HTCSEMI, in a SOP-8. 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 RO output Receiver output, three-state, high when A-B ≥ +0.2V or the inputs are open, low when A-B ≤ -0.2V, and high-impedance when RE is high.
2 RE input Receiver output enable, active low; RO is enabled when RE is 0 and high-impedance when RE is 1, with input thresholds VIH 2.0V min and VIL 0.8V max.
3 DE input Driver output enable, active high; driver outputs are enabled when DE is 1 and high-impedance when DE is 0, with VIH 2.0V min and VIL 0.8V max.
4 DI input Driver input; a low on DI forces the non-inverting driver output low and a high forces it high when DE is high, with VIH 2.0V min and VIL 0.8V max.
5 GND power_in Ground reference for the device; all voltages are referenced to device ground.
6 A bidirectional Non-inverting receiver input and driver output on the RS-485/RS-422 bus, with -7V to +12V common-mode input range and ±15kV HBM ESD protection.
7 B bidirectional Inverting receiver input and driver output on the RS-485/RS-422 bus, with -7V to +12V common-mode input range and ±15kV HBM ESD protection.
8 VCC power_in Positive supply input, operated from a single 5V ±5% supply with an absolute maximum of 12V.
