MAX488EESA+

MAX488EESA+ is a low-power transceiver for RS-485 and RS-422 communications in harsh environments. Each driver output and receiver input is protected against ±15kV electro-static discharge (ESD) shocks, without latch-up. This part contains one driver and one receiver. The MAX483E features reduced slew-rate driver that minimizes EMI and reduce reflections caused by improperly terminated cables, thus allowing error-free data transmission up to 250kbps. Driver is short-circuit current limited and protected against excessive power dissipation by thermal shutdown circuitry that places their outputs into a high-impedance state. The receiver input has a fail-safe feature that guarantees a logic-high output if the input is open circuit. Applications include low-power RS-485 transceivers, low-power RS-422 transceivers, level translators, transceivers for EMI-sensitive applications and industrial-control local area networks.
