MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX481ECPA RS-485 Transceiver

This device is an RS-485/RS-422 transceiver designed for reliable differential communication in industrial and data acquisition environments. It features +15kV ESD protection, slew-rate limiting to reduce EMI and signal reflections, and low power consumption, drawing as little as 120µA in operation. Suitable for multipoint bus networks, it supports data rates up to 2.5Mbps, with robust ESD protection against static shocks without latchup. Its wide operating temperature range and high-speed capabilities make it ideal for harsh industrial conditions and embedded communication systems.
