RS-232 transceiver for multi-port serial links
It handles serial data at 116 kbps over a 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply rail, with 500 mV of receiver hysteresis for noise rejection on longer cable runs. The 3/5 driver/receiver count suits equipment needing more receive channels than transmit — think multi-drop instrumentation, point-of-sale terminals, or industrial control panels where one UART talks to several peripheral devices.
At 116 kbps this transceiver handles serial data for terminal servers and barcode scanners. The 500 mV hysteresis maintains clean edges on longer cable runs.
Housed in a 28-SOIC wide-body (7.50 mm width) package, surface-mount only. The 0.295-inch body width is the wider SOIC variant — verify your PCB footprint matches the 7.50 mm body.
