ADIADM3485EARZ
Overview
The ADM3485EARZ is a low power, differential line transceiver designed for high-speed bidirectional data communication on multipoint bus transmission lines. It operates from a single 3.3V supply and is fully compliant with EIA RS-485 and RS-422 standards at data rates up to 10Mbps.
Why Choose This Part
The device features enhanced ESD protection and a 50mV receiver hysteresis to improve noise immunity in harsh electrical environments. Its 3.3V operation allows for direct interfacing with modern low-voltage microcontrollers without the need for level shifting from 5V rails.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
When prototyping, ensure a 120-ohm termination resistor is placed at both ends of the bus to prevent signal reflections. Connect the DE (Driver Enable) and RE (Receiver Enable) pins to a GPIO to manage the half-duplex direction switching required for RS-485 communication.
