FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The DS89C21 is a differential CMOS line driver and
2
• Meets TIA/EIA-422-A (RS-422) and CCITT V.11
receiver pair, designed to meet the requirements of
Recommendation
TIA/EIA-422-A (RS-422) electrical characteristics
• LOW POWER Design—15 mW Typical
interface standard. The DS89C21 provides one driver
• Guaranteed AC Parameters:
and one receiver in a minimum footprint. The device
is offered in an 8-pin SOIC package.
– Maximum Driver Skew 2.0 ns
The CMOS design minimizes the supply current to 6
– Maximum Receiver Skew 4.0 ns
mA, making the device ideal for use in battery
• Extended Temperature Range: −40°C to
powered or power conscious applications.
+85°C
The driver features a fast transition time specified at
• Available in SOIC Packaging
2.2 ns, and a maximum differential skew of 2 ns
• Operates over 20 Mbps
making the driver ideal for use in high speed
• Receiver OPEN Input Failsafe Feature
applications operating above 10 MHz.
The receiver can detect signals as low as 200 mV,
and also incorporates hysteresis for noise rejection.
Skew is specified at 4 ns maximum.
The DS89C21 is compatible with TTL and CMOS
levels (DI and RO).
