Datasheet Summary
16kV ESD Protected, +125°C, 3.0V to 5.5V, TDFN Packaged, Low Power RS-485/RS-422 Transmitter
FN7607 Rev.2.00 Oct 24, 2019
The ISL3298EMRTEP is a ±16.5kV HBM ESD Protected (7kV IEC61000 contact), 3.0V to 5.5V powered, single transmitter for balanced munication using the RS-485 and RS-422 standards. This driver has very low bus currents (±40mA); therefore, it presents less than a 1/8 unit load to the RS-485 bus. This allows more than 256 transmitters on the network without violating the RS-485 specification 32 unit load maximum, and without using repeaters.
Hot Plug circuitry ensures that the Tx outputs remain in a high impedance state while the power supply...
