MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX3468EPA Fail-Safe Industrial Transceiver
The MAX3468EPA+ is a 5V fail-safe transceiver engineered for PROFIBUS and industrial communication networks. Operating within 4.75V to 5.25V, it supports data rates up to 40 Mbps with fast propagation delays of 15ns for the transmitter and 20ns for the receiver. Encased in an 8-pin DIP package, it features a high-speed half-duplex differential driver and receiver, with true fail-safe circuitry ensuring a high output when inputs are open or shorted. Low power consumption at 2.5mA, thermal shutdown, current limiting, and hot swap capability enhance reliability. It complies with TIA/EIA standards, supports up to 128 transceivers on a bus, and includes active-high/low enable pins for control, making it ideal for noisy, long, industrial lines and level translation applications.
