(1) Component qualification in accordance with JEDEC and
industry standards to ensure reliable operation over an
extended temperature range. This includes, but is not limited
to, Highly Accelerated Stress Test (HAST) or biased 85/85,
temperature cycle, autoclave or unbiased HAST,
electromigration, bond intermetallic life, and mold compound
life. Such qualification testing should not be viewed as
justifying use of this component beyond specified
performance and environmental limits.

DESCRIPTION/ORDERING INFORMATION
The SN75976A is an improved replacement for the industry's first 9-channel 485 transceiver – the SN75LBC976.
The A version offers improved switching performance, a smaller package, and higher ESD protection. The
SN75976A is offered in two versions. The '976A2 skew limits of 4 ns for the differential drivers and 5 ns for the
differential receivers complies with the recommended skew budget of the Fast-20 SCSI standard for data transfer
rates up to 20 million transfers per second. The '976A1 supports the Fast SCSI skew budget for 10 million
transfers per second. The skew limit ensures that the propagation delay times, not only from channel-to-channel
but from device-to-device, are closely matched for the tight skew budgets associated with high-speed parallel
data buses.
