UM3488EESA

Union Semiconductor · RS-485/RS-422 ICs · SOP-8

UM3488EESA from Union Semiconductor, 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 VCC power_in Positive supply input. Operating range 3.135V ≤ VCC ≤ 3.465V (nominal +3.3V ±5%). Absolute maximum +7V. Typical quiescent current 180µA.
2 RO output Receiver output. RO is high when the receiver differential input A−B ≥ −50mV, and low when A−B ≤ −200mV. CMOS-level output; VOH ≥ VCC−0.4V at IO=−4mA, VOL ≤ 0.4V at IO=4mA.
3 DI input Driver input. A logic low on DI forces the non-inverting output (Y) low and the inverting output (Z) high; a logic high on DI drives Y high and Z low. VIH ≥ 2.0V, VIL ≤ 0.8V, ~100mV input hysteresis.
4 GND power_in Device ground reference. All voltages are referred to this pin unless otherwise noted.
5 Y output Non-inverting differential driver output (RS-422). Driven high or low relative to Z per DI state, always enabled on UM3488 (no DE pin). ±15kV HBM ESD protected; short-circuit current ±250mA.
6 Z output Inverting differential driver output (RS-422), complementary to Y. Always enabled on UM3488. ±15kV HBM ESD protected; short-circuit current ±250mA.
7 B input Inverting differential receiver input (RS-422). Together with A forms the receiver differential pair; VTH typ −125mV. Fail-safe guarantees RO=high if the bus is open, shorted, or terminated with no active driver. 1/8-unit-load input (RIN ≥ 96kΩ) allowing 256 transceivers on the bus.
8 A input Non-inverting differential receiver input (RS-422). Together with B forms the receiver differential pair. Common-mode range −7V to +12V; ±15kV HBM ESD protected; 1/8-unit-load (RIN ≥ 96kΩ).
