The DS26C31 is a quad differential line driver designed for digital data transmission over balanced
lines. The DS26C31T meets all the requirements of EIA standard RS-422 while retaining the low power
characteristics of CMOS. The DS26C31M is compatible with EIA standard RS-422; however, one exception in test methodology is taken(1). This enables the construction of serial and terminal interfaces while aintaining minimal power consumption.
