Overview
The SN75ALS173NSR is a monolithic quadruple differential line receiver with 3-state outputs, designed and manufactured by Texas Instruments. This device is engineered to meet the requirements of various industry standards, including ANSI EIA/TIA-422-B, EIA/TIA-423-B, RS-485, and several ITU recommendations such as V.10, V.11, X.26, and X.27. It utilizes advanced low-power Schottky technology to provide high-speed operation without significant power consumption. The device is suitable for multipoint bus transmission on long bus lines in noisy environments and features high input impedance, input hysteresis for noise immunity, and a common-mode input voltage range of –12 V to 12 V. Although the SN75ALS173NSR is now obsolete, its specifications and features remain relevant for understanding its capabilities.
