MAX3080- MAX3089
Fail-Safe, High-Speed (10Mbps),
Slew-Rate-Limited RS-485/RS-422 Transceivers
General Description
The MAX3080- MAX3089 high-speed transceivers for RS-485/RS-422 munication contain one driver and one receiver. These devices feature fail-safe circuitry, which guarantees a logic-high receiver output when the receiver inputs are open or shorted. This means that the receiver output will be a logic high if all transmitters on a terminated bus are disabled (high impedance). The MAX3080/MAX3081/MAX3082 feature reduced slew-rate drivers that minimize EMI and reduce reflections caused by improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free data...
