The AM26LS31CN-E
family of devices is a quadruple complementary-output line
driver designed to meet the requirements of ANSI TIA/EIA-422-B and ITU (formerly
CCITT) Recommendation V.11. The 3-state outputs have high-current capability for
driving balanced lines such as twisted-pair or parallel-wire transmission lines, and
are in the high-impedance state in the power-off condition. The enable function is
common to all four drivers and offers the choice of an active-high or active-low
enable (G, G) input. Low-power Schottky circuitry reduces power
consumption without sacrificing speed.
