The ISL81487EIPZ is an integrated circuit (IC) component specifically designed for use in isolated RS-485 and RS-422 applications. It is manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation, a leading global semiconductor company.
This IC offers several key features that make it ideal for industrial automation, motor control, and telecommunication applications. Firstly, it provides galvanic isolation, allowing transmission of data across different ground potentials. This is crucial in scenarios where the communicating devices are electrically isolated or operate at different reference potentials.
The ISL81487EIPZ supports both full-duplex RS-485 and half-duplex RS-422 communication standards. It can operate at data rates up to 20 Mbps, making it suitable for high-speed data transmission. Moreover, it features a wide common-mode input voltage range, ensuring reliable communication in noisy environments.
To ensure robust signal integrity, this IC employs a fail-safe circuit design. This helps maintain the output in a known state when inputs are open or shorted, preventing data corruption. Additionally, it incorporates thermal shutdown protection to prevent damage due to excessive heat.
The ISL81487EIPZ operates over a wide supply voltage range, from 4.5V to 5.5V, and supports a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Its compact package, the 8-lead plastic dual in-line package (PDIP), allows for easy integration into various system designs
