SIT3485ESA

SIT · RS-485 / RS-422 ICs · SOP-8

SIT3485ESA from SIT, 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 RO output Receiver output. When /RE is low: if A-B >= +200 mV, RO outputs high; if A-B <= -200 mV, RO outputs low. High-Z when receiver is disabled (/RE = high). VOH >= VCC-1.5 V at IOUT = -2.5 mA; VOL <= 0.4 V at IOUT = +2.5 mA.
2 /RE input Receiver output enable, active-low. Low = receiver output enabled (RO active). High = receiver disabled (RO high-impedance). /RE high AND DE low places the device into low-power shutdown mode. VIH >= 2.0 V, VIL <= 0.8 V.
3 DE input Driver output enable, active-high. High = driver A/B outputs enabled. Low = driver outputs high-impedance. DE low AND /RE high enters low-power shutdown. VIH >= 2.0 V, VIL <= 0.8 V.
4 DI input Driver data input. When driver is enabled: DI low drives A low and B high; DI high drives A high and B low. VIH >= 2.0 V, VIL <= 0.8 V, input current +/-2 uA.
5 GND power_in Ground reference (0 V). All voltages referenced to this pin.
6 A bidirectional RS-485 non-inverting bus I/O. Receiver non-inverting input and driver non-inverting output. Common-mode range -7 V to +12 V; receiver input resistance >= 96 kOhm (1/8 unit load). Includes integrated transient protection.
7 B bidirectional RS-485 inverting bus I/O. Receiver inverting input and driver inverting output. Common-mode range -7 V to +12 V; receiver input resistance >= 96 kOhm (1/8 unit load). Includes integrated transient protection.
8 VCC power_in Supply voltage input. Operating range 3.0 V to 3.6 V (nominal 3.3 V). Absolute max +7 V. Typical supply current 520-540 uA active; 0.5 uA in shutdown. Decouple with a 0.1 uF ceramic capacitor to GND.

3D model downloads

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
sit3485esa.step 122 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
sit3485esa-etched.step 2.3 MB You want the part with SIT3485ESA already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 557 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.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: SIT datasheet (13 pp, sha256 f9261a7d13245d2a, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: lcsc)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
  • CAD: KiCad official libraries (CC-BY-SA 4.0).
