Product details

The AM26LV31EIDRG4: It packs four drivers into a single 16-SOIC package, with no receivers on-chip — this is a pure transmitter side for balanced data transmission over twisted-pair cables.

The differential outputs swing enough to meet RS422/RS485 signal levels at the far end, so the cable side is fine. The scorch mark on a dead board often traces back to a 5V-tolerant part stuffed into a 3.3V socket; this one won't take that hit.

The base product number AM26LV31 covers a family of quad drivers in different packages and temperature grades; the EIDRG4 suffix specifies the 16-SOIC tape-and-reel variant with industrial temperature range.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to the AM26LV31EIDRG4?

Within the same AM26LV31 base family, the AM26LV31EIDR shares the same 16-SOIC footprint and pinout, differing only in the tape-and-reel suffix. For a wider supply range, the AM26C31 series (5V) is not pin-compatible without board changes.
