THVD1450DR

Texas Instruments · RS-485 / RS-422 ICs · SOIC-8

THVD1450DR from Texas Instruments, 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 R output Receive data output. CMOS logic-level output driven from the RS-485 bus differential receiver (A-B). High-impedance when RE is deasserted (high).
2 RE input Receiver enable, active low. Drive low to enable the receiver output R; drive high to place R in Hi-Z. 2-MΩ internal pull-up so the pin defaults to disabled if left floating.
3 DE input Driver enable, active high. Drive high to enable the differential driver onto the A/B bus; drive low to place the driver in Hi-Z. 2-MΩ internal pull-down so the driver defaults to disabled if left floating.
4 D input Driver data input. CMOS logic-level input; drives the differential A/B outputs when DE is high.
5 GND power_in Device ground reference (0 V).
6 A bidirectional RS-485 differential bus I/O, non-inverting (A). Complementary to B. Withstands ±18 V bus fault and ±18 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact ESD to GND.
7 B bidirectional RS-485 differential bus I/O, inverting (B). Complementary to A. Withstands ±18 V bus fault and ±18 kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact ESD to GND.
8 VCC power_in Supply voltage input, 3.3 V to 5 V nominal (3.0-5.5 V operating). Decouple to GND with a 100-nF ceramic capacitor placed close to the pin.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
thvd1450dr.step 122 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
thvd1450dr-etched.step 1.8 MB You want the part with THVD1450DR already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 467 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: Texas Instruments datasheet (54 pp, sha256 58ecc4cc07dd1d32, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: manufacturer)
  • 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).
