MaxLinear MxL83112
The MxL83111 and MxL83112 (MxL8311x family) half duplex RS-485 transceivers support differential communication in harsh industrial environments. The bus pins tolerate IEC electrical fast transients (EFT), IEC electrostatic discharge (ESD), and reduce EMI transmission with slew-controlled drivers. The MxL8311x devices operate from 3.3V to 5V power supply.GENERAL DESCRIPTION
High receiver input impedance allows 256 transceivers to share a common data bus while maintaining signal margin and without excessive loading or use of expensive repeaters. Enhanced failsafe circuitry ensures receivers provide the expected output when the bus is shorted or left open under both terminated and unterminated conditions. Drivers include built-in short-circuit protection and a thermal-overload shutdown to protect against excessive power dissipation from bus contention. The low power shutdown mode can extend the life of batteries in applications such as industrial notebooks, sensors, and solar powered applications, while hot swap ensures a deterministic logic state upon power-up.APPLICATIONS
