ISL3178EIBZ-T

RENESAS · RS-485 / RS-422 ICs · SOIC-8

ISL3178EIBZ-T 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: RO is high if A-B ≥ -50mV, low if A-B ≤ -200mV, and high if A and B are unconnected (floating) or shorted.
2 RE input Receiver output enable: RO is enabled when RE is low and high-impedance when RE is high; connect RE to GND through 1kΩ to 3kΩ if the receiver enable function is not required.
3 DE input Driver output enable: Y and Z are enabled when DE is high and high-impedance when DE is low; connect DE to VCC through 1kΩ to 3kΩ if the driver enable function is not required.
4 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.
5 GND power_in Ground connection.
6 A/Y bidirectional ±15kV IEC61000 ESD protected RS-485/422 pin: noninverting receiver input when DE = 0 and noninverting driver output when DE = 1.
7 B/Z bidirectional ±15kV IEC61000 ESD protected RS-485/422 pin: inverting receiver input when DE = 0 and inverting driver output when DE = 1.
8 VCC power_in System power supply input, 3.0V to 3.6V.
