MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX3488AEGSA RS-485 Transceiver

The MAX3488AEGSA+ is a 3.3V RS485/RS422 transceiver in an 8-pin SOIC package, designed for extended cable runs in noisy environments. It is a full-duplex transceiver with ±20KV ESD protection, capable of data rates up to 20 Mbps and slew-rate limiting. The transceiver features a fail-safe receiver that outputs high when inputs are shorted, open, or connected to a tri-state bus. Its receiver has a unit-load input impedance, supporting up to 32 devices on a single bus, and includes enhanced electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection in accordance with IEC 61000-4-2 standards, with protections of ±20KV HBM, ±15KV air-gap, and ±8KV contact. Operating within a voltage range of 3V to 3.6V, it consumes 1.9mA during operation and 10µA in shutdown. The device supports data rates up to 0.25 Mbps, short-circuit protected outputs, hot-swap capability to prevent false transitions during power-up or hot insertion, and can accommodate up to 128 transceivers on the bus. Its temperature operating range extends from -40°C to +105°C, making it suitable for industrial and communication networking applications.
