MAX14840E/MAX14841E 40Mbps, +3.3V, RS-485 Half-Duplex Transceivers
General Description
The MAX14840E/MAX14841E are +3.3V ESD-protected
transceivers intended for half-duplex RS-485 communica-
tion up to 40Mbps. These transceivers are optimized for
high speeds over extended cable runs while maximizing
tolerance to noise.
The MAX14840E features symmetrical fail-safe and larg-
er receiver hysteresis, providing improved noise rejection
and improved recovered signals in high-speed and long
cable applications. The MAX14841E has true fail-safe
receiver inputs guaranteeing a logic-high receiver output
when inputs are shorted or open.
The MAX14840E/MAX14841E are available in 8-pin SO
and small, 8-pin (3mm x 3mm) TDFN-EP packages. Both
devices operate over the -40NC to +125NC temperature
range.
