3 Description
The MC3486 is a monolithic quadruple differential line
receiver designed to meet the specifications of ANSI
Standards TIA/EIA-422-B and TIA/EIA-423-B and ITU
Recommendations V.10 and V.11. The MC3486 offers
four independent differential-input line receivers that
have TTL-compatible outputs. The outputs utilize 3-
state circuitry to provide a high-impedance state at
any output when the appropriate output enable is at a
low logic level.
The MC3486 is designed for optimum performance
when used with the MC3487 quadruple differential
line driver. It is supplied in a 16-pin package and
operates from a single 5-V supply.
The MC3486 is characterized for operation from 0°C
to 70°C.
