9. RS422A Interface Circuit
The RS422A interface circuit diagram is shown in Fig. 9-1. As can be seen in the figure, when TXD CONTROL is
L, the line driver IC14 becomes enable, going into the ready-to-receive state. At this time, the line receiver IC15
becomes disable. When TXD CONTROL is H, IC14 becomes disable, while IC15 becomes enable, going into the
ready-to-receive state. Communication is actually made through 2 lines although usually done through 4 lines
(including GND FG). These 2 lines are used for both transmitting and receiving of data.
