Description
The MAX3471 half-duplex transceiver is intended for lithium battery-powered RS-485/RS-422 applications.
Features
- true fail-safe operation that 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 MAX3471 has a 1/8-unit load input resistance. When driver outputs are enabled and pulled above VCC or below GND, internal circuitry prevents battery backcharging. The MAX3471 is available in an 8-pin µMAX package. ____________________________Features.
