SL485N

Slkor SLKORMICRO Elec · RS-485 / RS-422 ICs · SOP-8

SL485N from Slkor SLKORMICRO Elec, 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; the datasheet states it drives logic high when the receiver inputs are open or shorted (fail-safe), and it is high-impedance when RE is high. RO is rated from -0.3 V to VCC+0.3 V.
2 RE input Receiver enable, active low; driving it high puts RO into high-impedance. Absolute control input range is -0.5 V to +6.0 V.
3 DE input Driver enable, active high; when low the driver outputs are high-impedance, and when high the device operates in transmit mode. Absolute control input range is -0.5 V to +6.0 V.
4 DI input Driver data input that sets the differential state of L1/L2 while the driver is enabled. Absolute input range is -0.5 V to +6.0 V.
5 GND power_in Ground reference for all device voltages; the datasheet states all voltages are referenced to ground.
6 L1 bidirectional Receiver input and driver output (bus line A); bus voltage range is -7 V to +12 V, with ±15 kV HBM ESD protection between L1 and L2.
7 L2 bidirectional Receiver input and driver output (bus line B); bus voltage range is -7 V to +12 V, with ±15 kV HBM ESD protection between L1 and L2.
8 VCC power_in Supply pin; absolute maximum is +6.0 V and the datasheet specifies operation at 5 V ±5%.
