MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX13488EESA RS485 Transceiver

The MAX13488EESA+ is a half-duplex, ±15KV ESD-protected RS485/RS422 compatible transceiver featuring an AutoDirection control architecture in an 8-pin NSOIC package. Powered by 5V, it includes one driver and one receiver with hot-swap capability to prevent false bus transitions during power-up or live insertion. The AutoDirection control simplifies implementation for applications such as isolated RS485 ports, where the driver input works together with the driver enable signal to drive the differential bus. The driver has an unlimited slew rate, supporting transmission speeds up to 16 Mbps. The receiver has a 1/4 unit load impedance, allowing up to 128 transceivers on the bus. All driver outputs are protected with ±15KV ESD protection according to the human body model (HBM). Typical uses include utility meters, automated systems, industrial communication, and motor drive control. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 4.75V to 5.25V, and a temperature range from -40°C to 85°C. It features automatic driver enabling for transmission, with its supply current at 4.5mA and shutdown current at 10μA, offering space-saving and cost-effective design options by eliminating the need for external isolation components.
