GM3490E

GATEMODE · RS-485/RS-422 ICs · SOP-8

GM3490E 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 VCC power_in Positive supply input. Recommended operating range 3.0V ≤ VCC ≤ 3.6V; absolute maximum 6.0V. Decouple to GND with a local bypass capacitor.
2 RO output Receiver output (CMOS). RO is driven high when the differential input (A−B) ≥ −50mV, and low when (A−B) ≤ −200mV. Fail-safe forces RO high when inputs are open or shorted. VOH ≥ VCC−0.4V at IO=−4mA; VOL ≤ 0.4V at IO=4mA.
3 DI input Driver input (CMOS). A logic low on DI forces Y low and Z high; a logic high on DI forces Y high and Z low. VIH ≥ 2.0V, VIL ≤ 0.8V, with ~100mV of input hysteresis.
4 GND power_in Ground reference for the device. Connect to system ground.
5 Y output Driver non-inverting (true) output to the RS-485/RS-422 bus. Guaranteed
6 Z output Driver inverting (complementary) output to the RS-485/RS-422 bus. Paired with Y as the differential transmit line. Absolute maximum voltage range −8V to +13V; short-circuit current ≥ ±250mA.
7 B input Receiver inverting (complementary) input from the RS-485/RS-422 bus. High input impedance (RIN ≥ 12kΩ, typ 48kΩ, 1/4 unit load) allows up to 128 transceivers on the bus. Absolute maximum voltage −8V to +13V; ±15kV HBM ESD protected.
8 A input Receiver non-inverting (true) input from the RS-485/RS-422 bus. High input impedance (RIN ≥ 12kΩ, typ 48kΩ, 1/4 unit load). Receiver thresholds: RO=1 when A−B ≥ −50mV, RO=0 when A−B ≤ −200mV. Absolute maximum voltage −8V to +13V; ±15kV HBM ESD protected.
