The SN75185 combines three drivers and five receivers from the TI SN75188 and SN75189 bipolar quadruple drivers and receivers, respectively. The pinout matches the flow-through design of the SN75C185 to decrease the part count, reduce the board space required, and allow easy interconnection of the UART and serial-port connector of IBM™ PC/AT™ and compatibles. The bipolar circuits and processing of the SN75185 provide a rugged low-cost solution for this function at the expense of quiescent power and external passive components relative to the SN75C185.
