ISL3178EIBZ-T7A

RENESAS · Pre-ordered Chips · SOIC-8

ISL3178EIBZ-T7A from RENESAS, in a SOIC-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: high if A-B ≥ -50mV, low if A-B ≤ -200mV, and high if A and B are floating or shorted.
2 RE input Receiver output enable: RO is enabled when RE is low and high impedance when RE is high; if unused, connect to GND directly or through 1kΩ to 3kΩ.
3 DE input Driver output enable: driver outputs are enabled when DE is high and high impedance when DE is low; if unused, connect to VCC through 1kΩ to 3kΩ.
4 DI input Driver input: a low forces output Y low and Z high, a high forces Y high and Z low.
5 GND power_in Ground connection.
6 A/Y bidirectional ±15kV IEC61000 ESD protected RS-485/422 noninverting receiver input and noninverting driver output; input if DE = 0, output if DE = 1.
7 B/Z bidirectional ±15kV IEC61000 ESD protected RS-485/422 inverting receiver input and inverting driver output; input if DE = 0, output if DE = 1.
8 VCC power_in System power supply input (3.0V to 3.6V).
