DS3487N

HGSEMI · RS-485 / RS-422 ICs · DIP-16

DS3487N from HGSEMI, in a DIP-16. 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 INPUT_A input TTL-compatible data input for driver channel A. Drives non-inverting output high and inverting output low when logic high (VIH >= 2.0V); PNP-buffered to minimize input loading.
2 OUTPUT_A_NI tri_state Non-inverting differential line-driver output for channel A. Drives VOH >= 2.5V at IOH = -20 mA or VOL <= 0.5V at IOL = 48 mA; enters high impedance when A/B control (pin 4) is low.
3 OUTPUT_A_INV tri_state Inverting differential line-driver output for channel A. Complement of pin 2; enters TRI-STATE when A/B control (pin 4) is low. Meets EIA RS-422 differential output voltage VT >= 2.0V.
4 A/B_CONTROL input Active-high output enable shared by drivers A and B. When high, both A and B differential outputs are enabled; when low, both A and B outputs are forced to TRI-STATE (high impedance).
5 OUTPUT_B_INV tri_state Inverting differential line-driver output for channel B. Complement of pin 6; enters TRI-STATE when A/B control (pin 4) is low.
6 OUTPUT_B_NI tri_state Non-inverting differential line-driver output for channel B. Drives VOH >= 2.5V at IOH = -20 mA or VOL <= 0.5V at IOL = 48 mA; enters TRI-STATE when A/B control (pin 4) is low.
7 INPUT_B input TTL-compatible data input for driver channel B. VIL <= 0.8V, VIH >= 2.0V; PNP-buffered so IIL is typically only a small microamp-level load.
8 GND power_in Device ground (0V) reference for all inputs, outputs, and the internal logic.
9 INPUT_C input TTL-compatible data input for driver channel C. VIL <= 0.8V, VIH >= 2.0V; PNP-buffered input to minimize source loading.
10 OUTPUT_C_NI tri_state Non-inverting differential line-driver output for channel C. Drives VOH >= 2.5V at IOH = -20 mA or VOL <= 0.5V at IOL = 48 mA; enters TRI-STATE when C/D control (pin 12) is low.
11 OUTPUT_C_INV tri_state Inverting differential line-driver output for channel C. Complement of pin 10; enters TRI-STATE when C/D control (pin 12) is low.
12 C/D_CONTROL input Active-high output enable shared by drivers C and D. When high, both C and D differential outputs are enabled; when low, both C and D outputs are forced to TRI-STATE (high impedance).
13 OUTPUT_D_INV tri_state Inverting differential line-driver output for channel D. Complement of pin 14; enters TRI-STATE when C/D control (pin 12) is low.
14 OUTPUT_D_NI tri_state Non-inverting differential line-driver output for channel D. Drives VOH >= 2.5V at IOH = -20 mA or VOL <= 0.5V at IOL = 48 mA; enters TRI-STATE when C/D control (pin 12) is low.
15 INPUT_D input TTL-compatible data input for driver channel D. VIL <= 0.8V, VIH >= 2.0V; PNP-buffered input to minimize source loading.
16 VCC power_in Positive supply rail, 4.75 V to 5.25 V (nominal 5 V). Typical ICC = 50 mA active, 35 mA in TRI-STATE; bypass locally to GND (pin 8) with a 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor.
