FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The DS9638 is a Schottky, TTL compatible, dual
2
Single 5V Supply
differential line driver designed specifically to meet
Schottky Technology
the EIA Standard RS-422 specifications. It is
TTL and CMOS Compatible Inputs
designed to provide unipolar differential drive to
twisted pair or parallel wire transmission lines. The
Output Short Circuit Protection
inputs are TTL compatible. The outputs are similar to
Input Clamp Diodes
totem pole TTL outputs, with active pull-up and pull-

down. The device features a short circuit protected
active pull-up with low output impedance and is
Minimum Output Skew (<1.0 ns typical)
specified to drive 50Ω transmission lines at high
50 mA Output Drive Capability for 50Ω
speed. The mini-DIP provides high package density.
