HIN202CA

Product Overview

The Harris Corporation HIN202CA is a surface-mount RS232 transceiver intended for full-duplex serial data transmission and reception in 16-SSOP packaging. The device integrates two drivers and two receivers, supporting communication at a data rate of 120kbps while operating from a 4.5V to 5.5V supply. The receiver hysteresis is 500 mV. With a 0°C to 70°C operating temperature range, the HIN202CA is suited to electronic assemblies operating within that range and requiring RS232 serial interfacing, compact board-level integration, and simultaneous transmit and receive paths.

Key Features

• RS232 protocol support for full-duplex serial communication
• Two drivers and two receivers provide separate transmit and receive paths
• Data rate of 120kbps
• Receiver hysteresis of 500 mV
• Supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V
• Operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C (TA)
• Surface-mount 16-SSOP package with 0.209 inch (5.30mm) width

Applications

• RS232 serial data exchange between equipment with RS232-compatible interfaces
• Full-duplex transmit and receive paths for serial communication modules
• Surface-mount serial interface functions for compact PCB layouts

Design & Procurement Notes

When selecting the HIN202CA, confirm that the board supply remains within the 4.5V to 5.5V range and that the serial link does not exceed the 120kbps data rate. The 2/2 full-duplex configuration is appropriate when transmit and receive channels must operate simultaneously, while the 500 mV receiver hysteresis can be considered during signal-integrity review of the RS232 line interface. Because the operating temperature range is 0°C to 70°C (TA), the ambient thermal budget should be checked for the final enclosure or board location. The 16-SSOP surface-mount package requires pad and stencil design for a 5.30mm-wide component, and layout should account for its 16 leads and the need to route both driver and receiver signals cleanly.
