CA-IF4820HS from Chipanalog, in a SOIC-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 | RO | output | Receiver bus output. Digital CMOS output that presents the recovered logic level from the differential A/B bus to the host controller when the receiver is enabled (REB=0). |
| 2 | REB | input | Receiver enable, active-low. Drive REB low to enable the receiver output (RO); drive REB high to place RO in high-impedance. Digital CMOS input referenced to VCC/GND. |
| 3 | DE | input | Driver enable, active-high. Drive DE high to enable the differential driver onto the A/B bus; drive DE low to place the driver outputs in high-impedance (allowing multipoint bus sharing). |
| 4 | DI | input | Driver bus input. Digital CMOS input; the logic level on DI is transmitted as the differential state on A/B when DE is asserted. |
| 5 | GND | power_in | Device ground reference for logic and bus circuitry. |
| 6 | A | bidirectional | Non-inverting RS-485/RS-422 bus line. Serves as the driver's non-inverting output when DE=1 and as the receiver's non-inverting input when REB=0. ±15V common-mode range; ±30V fault protection; ±30kV HBM ESD. |
| 7 | B | bidirectional | Inverting RS-485/RS-422 bus line. Serves as the driver's inverting output when DE=1 and as the receiver's inverting input when REB=0. ±15V common-mode range; ±30V fault protection; ±30kV HBM ESD. |
| 8 | VCC | power_in | Supply voltage input, 3.0V to 5.5V. Bypass to GND with a local decoupling capacitor. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 544 faces against 147 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
