Pin Description
PIN NAME FUNCTION
1RO
Receiver Output. When receiver is enabled and V(A) - V(B) > +200mV, RO is high. If V(A) - V(B)
< -200mV, RO is low.
2 RE
Receiver Output Enable. Drive RE low to enable the RO. Drive RE high to let the AutoDirection circuit
control the receiver. RE is a hot-swap input (see the Hot-Swap Capability section for more details).
3 SHDN
Shutdown. Drive SHDN high to let the device operate in normal operation. Drive SHDN low to put the part
in shutdown.
4DI
Driver Input. Drive DI low to force noninverting output low and inverting output high. Drive DI high to force
noninverting output high and inverting output low. DI is an input to the internal state machine that
automatically enables and disables the driver. See the Function Tables and General Description for more
information. DI is a hot-swap input (see the Hot-Swap Capability section for more details).
5 GND Ground
6 A Noninverting Receiver Input and Noninverting Driver Output
7 B Inverting Receiver Input and Inverting Driver Output
