RS-485 bus transceiver in a through-hole DIP
The SN75LBC184P: It integrates one driver and one receiver on the same die, with 70 mV of receiver hysteresis to reject noise on long bus runs.
It is ROHS3 compliant, meeting the latest EU restriction-of-hazardous-substances directive for lead-free assembly.
Through-hole package and board integration
Housed in an 8-DIP (0.300-inch, 7.62 mm pitch) through-hole package, the SN75LBC184P mounts directly into a standard DIP socket or solders into plated through-holes on a PCB. The PDIP body is 0.300 inches wide, fitting into legacy 8-pin footprints without a board spin — a common requirement for retrofitting RS-485 nodes into existing control panels.
