Update: 28 September, 2023
The MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB are electrically isolated RS-485/RS-422 data-communications interfaces. The RS-485/RS-422 I/O pins are protected against ±15kV electrostatic discharge (ESD) shocks, without latchup. Transceivers, optocouplers, and a transformer are all included in one low-cost, 28-pin PDIP package. A single +3.3V supply on the logic side powers both sides of the interface. The MAX3480EB features reduced-slew-rate drivers that minimize EMI and reduce reflections caused by improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free data transmission at data rates up to 160kbps. The MAX3480EA’s driver slew rate is not limited, allowing transmission rates up to 2.5Mbps. Drivers are short-circuit current limited and are protected against excessive power dissipation by thermal shutdown circuitry that places the driver outputs into a high-impedance state. The receiver input has a fail-safe feature that guarantees a logic-high output if the input is open circuit. The MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB are guaranteed to withstand 1260VRMS (1min) or 1520VRMS (1s). Their isolated inputs and outputs meet RS-485/RS-422 specifications.
