DESCRIPTION
The SP481E and the SP485E are a family of half-duplex transceivers that meet the
specifications of RS-485 and RS-422 serial protocols with enhanced ESD performance. The
ESD tolerance has been improved on these devices to over +15KV for both Human Body
Model and IEC1000-4-2 Air Discharge Method. These devices are pin-to-pin compatible with
Sipex's SP481 and SP485 devices as well as popular industry standards. As with the original
versions, the SP481E and the SP485E feature Sipex's BiCMOS design allowing low power
operation without sacrificing performance. The SP481E and SP485E meet the requirements
of the RS-485 and RS-422 protocols up to 10Mbps under load. The SP481E is equipped with
a low power Shutdown mode.
