DESCRIPTION
The SP481R and SP485R are pin-to-pin equivalent with our existing SP485 product and contain
enhancements such as higher ESD tolerance and high receiver input impedance. The higher
receiver input impedance allows for connecting over 400 transceivers on a single transmission
line without degrading the RS-485 driver signal. Each device is packaged in an 8-pin plastic DIP
or 8-pin narrow SOIC package. The SP481R offers a shutdown feature via the enable pins which
