3 Description

The SN65C1168E-SEP consists of dual drivers and

dual receivers with ±12-kV ESD (HBM) and ±8-kV

ESD (IEC61000-4-2 Air-Gap Discharge and Contact

Discharge) for RS-422 bus pins. The device meets

the requirements of TIA/EIA-422-B and ITU

recommendation V.11. Some parameters do not meet

all TIA/EIA-422-B and ITU recommendation V.11

requirements after 20-krad(Si) TID exposure.

The SN65C1168E-SEP drivers have individual activehigh

enables.
