SN75ALS171ADW

The SN75ALS171ADW is an advanced bi-directional transceiver designed for use in Motorola\'s M68HC11 family of microcontroller interface applications. It is part of a family of components that interface with an incoming multipoint data connection, and provide a serial link to the microcontroller. Capable of both transmitting and receiving data, the SN75ALS171ADW is also capable of providing control signals to the microcontroller, allowing it to control the flow of data. This makes the SN75ALS171ADW a great tool for interfacing a microcontroller with a wide variety of peripheral devices.

The SN75ALS171ADW is a 16-pin integrated circuit that supports serial asynchronous and synchronous transmission modes at speeds of up to 10 Mbps. It is capable of full-duplex operation, allowing data to be both transmitted and received simultaneously. It also provides several control signals that allow the microcontroller to control the flow of data. In addition, it provides voltage level translation between different logic families, making it compatible with a variety of logic types.

The device is designed to operate exclusively in the synchronous protocol. It is capable of running in either master or slave mode, depending on the connection, and allows for the implementation of full-duplex or half-duplex connections. When configured in master mode, the SN75ALS171ADW can be used to establish a synchronous link with a remote device, allowing data to be transmitted across the link in bursts.

The SN75ALS171ADW has several features that make it an ideal choice for the interface of microcontrollers to a variety of peripheral devices. For example, the device features a robust pulse-width modulation circuit, capable of accurately controlling the flow of data within the microcontroller. It also provides a power-on reset circuit and a watchdog timer, which allow the microcontroller to monitor and control its own internal operations in the event of a malfunction. Additionally, it has an onboard voltage regulator that can provide a regulated supply voltage for the microcontroller.

The SN75ALS171ADW offers a wide range of features for interfacing with the M68HC11 family of microcontrollers, enabling it to interface with a variety of peripheral devices. It is a reliable, stable, and cost-effective transceiver, making it an excellent choice for interface applications in the M68HC11 family.
