1.2 When to Use or Not Use Fixed Directional Devices

Differences Between Unidirectional and Auto-Bidirectional SignalsFigure 1-1 Differences Between Unidirectional and Auto-Bidirectional Signals

Each channel of unidirectional signals are directed towards a fixed direction while each channel of auto-bidirectional signals can be directed for both directions. Check for the direction of the application’s signal or protocol and review this checklist with the latest data sheet documentation. Figure 1-2 and Figure 1-3 are examples showing fixed directional signals. See Section 2.7 for a full list of typical applications with their device recommendations.
