CC
:
5V Input Supply Pin. This pin should be decoupled
with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor close to the package pin.
Insufficient supply bypassing can result in low output
drive levels and erratic charge pump operation.
GND:
Ground Pin.
ON/OFF:
A TTL/CMOS Compatible Operating Mode Con-
trol. A logic low puts the LT1180A in shutdown mode.
Supply current drops to zero and both driver and receiver
outputs assume a high impedance state. A logic high fully
enables the device.

. Larger value capaci-
tors may be used to reduce supply ripple. With multiple
transceivers, the V

common capacitors.
