MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX487CUA RS-485 Transceiver

The MAX487CUA+ is a low-power, slew rate-limited RS-485/RS-422 transceiver housed in an 8-pin UMAX package. It features one driver and one receiver, with the driver designed to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and signal reflections, enabling error-free data transmission at speeds up to 250 kbps. The transceiver includes short-circuit current limiting and thermal shutdown for protection against excessive power dissipation. It also has fail-safe circuitry that outputs a logic high when the receiver input is open. Operating over a supply voltage range of 4.75V to 5.25V and temperature range of 0°C to 70°C, it is designed for half-duplex communication. The device consumes only 0.1μA in shutdown mode and has a quiescent current of 120μA. Its receiver input impedance is a quarter unit load, allowing up to 128 transceivers on the bus. Ideal applications include industrial control networks, level translators, low-power RS-422 and RS-485 transceivers, and EMI-sensitive environments.
