The MAX487EPA+ is a low power, slew rate-limited RS-485/RS-422 transceiver in an 8-pin DIP package. It features one driver and one receiver, with a driver that minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and reflections to ensure error-free data transmission at speeds up to 250 kbps. The device includes short-circuit current limitation and thermal shutdown protection to prevent damage from excessive power dissipation. It incorporates fail-safe circuitry, providing a logic high output when the receiver input is open. Operating from a supply voltage of 4.75V to 5.25V and an ambient temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, it is designed for half-duplex communication. The transceiver consumes only 0.1µA in shutdown mode and has a quiescent current of 120µA. Its receiver has a quarter unit load input impedance, allowing up to 128 transceivers on the bus. Features include receiver and driver enable functions. Typical applications include industrial and communication networking systems. Note: Due to high market demand, lead times may be extended and delivery dates are subject to fluctuation. The product is exempt from discounts.
