MAX13448E Datasheet, PDF (1/14 Pages) Maxim Integrated Products – 80V Fault-Protected Full-Duplex RS-485 Transceiver
19-4098; Rev 0; 5/08
±80V Fault-Protected Full-Duplex
RS-485 Transceiver
General Description
The MAX13448E full-duplex RS-485 transceiver fea-
tures inputs and outputs fault protected up to ±80V
(with respect to ground). The device operates from a
+3.0V to +5.5V supply and features true fail-safe cir-
cuitry, guaranteeing a logic-high receiver output when
the receiver inputs are open or shorted. This enables all
receiver outputs on a terminated bus to output logic-
high when all transmitters are disabled.
The MAX13448E features a slew-rate limited driver that
minimizes EMI and reduces reflections caused by
improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free data
transmission at data rates up to 500kbps with a +5V
supply, and 250kbps with a +3.3V supply.
The MAX13448E includes a hot-swap capability to elimi-
nate false transitions on the bus during power-up or hot
insertion. The driver and receiver feature active-high and
active-low enables, respectively, that can be connected
together externally to serve as a direction control.
The MAX13448E features an 1/8-unit load receiver input
impedance, allowing up to 256 transceivers on the bus.
All driver outputs are protected to ±8kV ESD using the
Human Body Model. The MAX13448E is available in a
14-pin SO package and operates over the extended
-40°C to +85°C temperature range.
