SN75ALS172N

The SN75ALS172N is an integrated circuit (IC) component that belongs to the SN75ALS series of quadruple differential line receivers. It offers high-speed signal transmission and robust noise immunity, making it ideal for use in digital networks and communication systems. Here are some key features of the SN75ALS172N: 1. Differential Line Receiver: The SN75ALS172N includes four independent differential line receivers, which receive differential signals from various sources and convert them into TTL/CMOS compatible outputs. 2. High-Speed Operation: The IC is designed to operate at high data rates, offering a maximum propagation delay of 30ns and a maximum transition time of 5ns. This enables it to handle high-speed digital signals accurately and efficiently. 3. Wide Input Voltage Range: The SN75ALS172N can accommodate a wide range of input voltage levels, from -7V to +12V. This makes it compatible with various logic families and allows for interoperability between systems operating at different voltage levels. 4. Robust Noise Immunity: The IC has built-in hysteresis on the inputs, providing excellent noise immunity and reducing the impact of signal distortions or interference caused by external sources. 5. Thermal Shutdown Protection: To prevent damage from excessive heat, the SN75ALS172N includes a thermal shutdown protection feature. This protects the IC by shutting it down when the operating temperature exceeds a safe limit, ensuring long-term reliability
