HIN202CBZ

Product Overview

The HIN202CBZ from Renesas Electronics Corporation is a surface-mount RS232 transceiver in a 16-SOIC package. It integrates two drivers and two receivers for full-duplex serial communication and operates from a 4.5V to 5.5V supply. The device supports a data rate of 120 kbps and provides 500 mV of receiver hysteresis. Its specified operating temperature range is 0°C to 70°C, making it suitable for general-purpose serial interface designs that use standard surface-mount assembly.

Key Features

• RS232 protocol transceiver with two drivers and two receivers for full-duplex serial communication
• Supports a data rate of 120 kbps and includes 500 mV receiver hysteresis
• Operates from a 4.5V to 5.5V supply and is rated for 0°C to 70°C operation
• Surface-mount 16-SOIC package with 0.295-inch, 7.50 mm width

Applications

• Point-to-point RS232 serial links between terminal equipment and host computers
• Microprocessor-based instruments exchanging serial data with controllers or PCs
• General-purpose embedded systems requiring full-duplex serial communication within a 4.5V to 5.5V supply environment
• Data acquisition and control interfaces operating in 0°C to 70°C conditions

Design & Procurement Notes

Design teams should confirm that the system supply remains within 4.5V to 5.5V and that the operating environment stays within 0°C to 70°C. The 16-SOIC surface-mount package requires an appropriate PCB footprint with 7.50 mm body width. Because the device provides 2/2 full-duplex RS232 channels, it can support simultaneous transmit and receive paths in point-to-point serial architectures. The 120 kbps data rate and 500 mV receiver hysteresis are useful reference points when evaluating serial link timing and receiver sensitivity requirements.
