SP483E
Enhanced Low EMI Half-Duplex
RS-485 Transceiver
Description
The
SP483E
is a half-duplex transceiver that meets the
specifications of RS-485 and RS-422 serial protocols with enhanced
ESD performance. The ESD tolerance has been improved on
these devices to over ±15kV for both Human Body Model and
IEC61000-4-2 Air Discharge Method. This device is pin-to-pin
compatible with MaxLinear’s SP483 device as well as popular
industry standards. As with the original versions, the SP483E feature
MaxLinear’s BiCMOS design allowing low power operation without
sacrificing performance. The SP483E is internally slew rate limited to
reduce EMI and can meet the requirements of RS-485 and RS-422 up
to 250kbps. The SP483E is also equipped with a low power shutdown
mode.
