FAE documentary review accepted: both exact order codes are 16-pin narrow SOIC/SOP RS-232 transceivers with two drivers/receivers, 3.0-5.5 V operation and four 0.1 uF charge-pump capacitors. The source ordering table specifies -40 to +85 C and 120 kbps; the UMW datasheet specifies -40 to +105 C and 250 kbit/s. HuluIC lists 0 to +70 C for the UMW record, which conflicts with the manufacturer datasheet and is not used for the acceptance decision. The target widens both temperature and data-rate margins. Document review only; not bench, reliability or production qualified.
