DI (Pin 4): Driver Input. If the driver outputs are enabled

(DE high) then a low on DI forces the outputs A low and B

high. A high on DI with the driver outputs enabled will force

A high and B low.

GND (Pin 5): Ground.

A (Pin 6): Driver Output/Receiver Input.

B (Pin 7): Driver Output/Receiver Input.

RO (Pin 1): Receiver Output. If the receiver output is

enabled (RE low), then if A > B by 200mV, RO will be high.

If A < B by 200mV, then RO will be low.

RE (Pin 2): Receiver Output Enable. A low enables the

receiver output, RO. A high input forces the receiver

output into a high impedance state.

DE (Pin 3): Driver Outputs Enable. A high on DE enables

the driver output. A, B and the chip will function as a line

driver. A low input will force the driver outputs into a high

impedance state and the chip will function as a line

receiver. If RE is high and DE is low, the part will enter a low

power (1

µA) shutdown state.
