Frequently Asked Questions
What propagation delay does the SN75160BN-NG achieve on the GPIB data bus?
The SN75160BN-NG guarantees a maximum propagation delay of 22ns, enabling reliable data transmission on the IEEE-488 GPIB bus at standard transfer rates up to 1MB/s. This fast response time ensures the transceiver meets the timing requirements of the IEEE-488.1 specification for both controllers and talker/listener instruments.
How many data channels does the SN75160BN-NG drive simultaneously on the GPIB bus?
The SN75160BN-NG drives 8 bidirectional data channels simultaneously, corresponding to the 8 data lines (DIO1–DIO8) of the IEEE-488 GPIB bus. This single-IC solution replaces what would otherwise require multiple discrete driver and receiver components, simplifying board design and reducing component count.
In which test-and-measurement scenarios is the SN75160BN-NG the preferred GPIB interface IC?
The SN75160BN-NG is preferred in automated test equipment (ATE) racks, benchtop oscilloscopes, signal generators, and spectrum analyzers that implement the IEEE-488 GPIB interface. Its 22ns propagation speed and 8-channel capacity make it suitable for systems requiring fast data throughput across multiple instruments controlled by a GPIB controller.
What DIP package pin count does the SN75160BN-NG use and how does it affect PCB layout?
The SN75160BN-NG is housed in a DIP package (through-hole) with 2.54mm (100 mil) pin pitch. The package provides easy board-level replacement in legacy GPIB instrument designs and accommodates hand-soldering for repair scenarios, though it has a larger PCB footprint than equivalent surface-mount transceivers.
