Harris Introduces the Newest Addition to its Family of RS-232 Transmitters/Receivers for ISDN and High-Speed Modems
- 15 kV electrostatic discharge protection ensures reliability
- Lower power consumption extends battery life of OEM systems
MELBOURNE, FL, March 8, 1999 – Harris Semiconductor today announced a new single supply Quad Line Receiver that couples high-speed translation with extremely low current levels and power consumption. The HIN14C89E Quad Line Receiver is high speed ISDN compatible, receiving up to four RS-232 input signals at speeds up to 240Kbps and translates these signals to TTL/CMOS outputs. The higher data rate is essential to PCs and peripherals because the RS-232 port constrains the data pipeline. The receiver inputs are protected by 15kV ESD (Electro-static Discharge), which is compliant with IEC1000, the standard for equipment entering the European market.

The HIN14C89E is designed using Harris CMOS process. It is designed for applications that require performance compliance to EIA/TIA-232, EIA/TIA-562, and CCITT V.28 specifications. The HIN14C89E consumes three to four times less power than its competitors.
Component features
The HIN14C89E requires no external capacitors and is tailored for faster data transfer, thus consuming less power and extending the battery life of the end user. Additionally, HIN14C89E provides design flexibility and on-chip noise filtering to improve noise rejection as well as eliminate external filtering noise components.
Pricing and Availability
Available from stock in DIP and SOIC for $1.03 in quantities of 100s, Harris Quad Line Receivers are aggressively priced against competition.
