January 1996
General Description
The DS8641 is a quad high speed drivers/receivers designed for use in bus organized data transmission systems
interconnected by terminated 120Ω impedance lines. The
external termination is intended to be a 180Ω resistor from
the busto the +5V logic supply together with a 390Ω resistor
from thebus toground. The bus canbe terminatedat oneor
both ends. Low bus pin current allows up to 27 driver/
receiver pairs to utilize a common bus. The bus loading is
unchanged when V
thresholds for betterbus noise immunity. One two-inputNOR
gate is included to disable all drivers in a package simultaneously.
