MAX1487CSA+T Slew Rate Limited RS-422 RS485 Transceiver IC SMD Mounting Type 2.5Mbps Data Rate

MAX1487CSA+ Low-Power, Slew-Rate-Limited RS-485/RS-422 Transceivers IC Chip


General Description

The MAX481, MAX483, MAX485, MAX487–MAX491, and MAX1487 are low-power transceivers for RS-485 and RS- 422 communication. Each part contains one driver and one receiver. The MAX483, MAX487, MAX488, and MAX489 feature reduced slew-rate drivers that minimize EMI and reduce reflections caused by improperly terminated cables, thus allowing error-free data transmission up to 250kbps. The driver slew rates of the MAX481, MAX485, MAX490, MAX491, and MAX1487 are not limited, allowing them to transmit up to 2.5Mbps. These transceivers draw between 120µA and 500µA of supply current when unloaded or fully loaded with disabled drivers. Additionally, the MAX481, MAX483, and MAX487 have a low-current shutdown mode in which they consume only 0.1µA. All parts operate from a single 5V supply. 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 MAX487 and MAX1487 feature quarter-unit-load receiver input impedance, allowing up to 128 MAX487/ MAX1487 transceivers on the bus. Full-duplex communications are obtained using the MAX488–MAX491, while the MAX481, MAX483, MAX485, MAX487, and MAX1487 are designed for half-duplex applications.

Koben Electronics was founded in 1995 and is located in the Silicon Valley of China, Shenzhen.

The mission of Koben has always been to provide quality electronics components to manufacturers worldwide. Early on we became a primary conduit for end-of-program and overstock inventory for major distributors such as Future Electronics and contract manufacturers as Flextronics. Koben has since then added sourcing of high quality components from local manufacturers in China.

Koben has always been customer driven rather than opportunity driven. Meaning- we will always choose path that is best for long term relationship with customer over short term view. It is why we have one of the highest customer retention scores of China based distributors.
