MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX481ESA RS-485 Transceiver

The MAX481ESA is a low-power, slew-rate-limited RS-485 transceiver suitable for industrial communication and automation systems. Operating from a 5V supply, it features high-speed data transmission up to 250kbps with reduced electromagnetic interference due to its slew-rate limiting design. The MAX481ESA includes driver enable and receiver enable pins, enabling bidirectional communication on multipoint networks with high noise immunity. Its low quiescent current consumption and thermal shutdown protection make it ideal for energy-efficient and space-constrained applications in industrial control environments.
