CMOS QUAD TRI-STATE DIFFERENTIAL LINE DRIVER
General Description
The DS26C31 is a qual differential line driver designed for digital data transmission over
balanced lines. The DS26C31 meets all the requirements of EIA standard RS-422 while
retaining the low power characteristics of CMOS. This enables the construction of serial
and terminal interfaces while maintaining minimal power consumption.
The DS26C31 accepts TTL or CMOS input levels and translates these to RS-422 output levels.
This part uses special output circuitry that enables the individual drivers to power down
without loading down the bus. This device has enable and disable circuitry common to all
four drivers. The DS26C31 is pin compatible to the AM26LS31 and the DS26LS31.
All inputs are protected against damage due to electrostatic discharge by diodes to Vcc
and ground.
