MAX485CSA

The MAX485CSA is designed as one kind of low-power, slew-rate-limited RS-485/RS-422 transceiver that can be used in (1)low-power RS-485 transceivers; (2)low-power RS-422 transceivers; (3)level translators; (4)transceivers for EMI-sensitive applications; (5)industrial-control local area networks. Features of this device are:(1)ESD protection: ±15kV-human body model;(2)slew-rate limited for error-free data transmission;(3)-7V to +12V common-mode input voltage range;(4)three-state outputs;(5)30ns propagation delays, 5ns skew;(6)full-duplex and half-duplex versions available;(7)allows up to 128 transceivers on the bus;(8)current limiting and thermal shutdown for driver overload protection.

The absolute maximum ratings of this device can be summarized as:(1)Supply Voltage: 12 V;(2)Control Input Voltage (RE, DE): -0.5V to (VCC + 0.5V);(3)Driver Input Voltage: -0.5V to (VCC + 0.5V);(4)Driver Output Voltage (A, B): -8 V to +12.5 V;(5)Receiver Input Voltage (A, B): -8 V to +12.5 V;(6)Receiver Output Voltage: -0.5V to (VCC +0.5V);(7)Lead Temperature (soldering, 10sec): +300°C;(8)Storage Temperature Range: -65°C to +160°C.

The electrical characteristics of the MAX485CSA can be summarized as:(1)Differential Driver Output (no load): 5 V;(2)Input High Voltage: 2.0 V;(3)Input Low Voltage: 0.8 V;(4)Input Current: ±2 A;(5)Receiver Input Hysteresis: 70 mV;(6)Receiver Output High Voltage: 3.5 V;(7)Receiver Output Low Voltage: 0.4 V.
