GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MAX13487E/MAX13488E +5V, half-duplex, ±15kV ESD-protected RS-485/RS-422-compatible transceivers feature one driver and one receiver. The MAX13487E/ MAX13488E include a hot-swap capability to eliminate false transitions on the bus during power-up or live insertion. The MAX13487E/MAX13488E feature Maxim’s proprietary AutoDirection control. This architecture makes the devices ideal for applications, such as isolated RS-485 ports, where the driver input is used in conjunction with the driver-enable signal to drive the differential bus. These devices are intended for halfduplex communications. All driver outputs are protected to ±15kV ESD using the Human Body Model. The MAX13487E/MAX13488E are available in an 8-pin SO package. The devices operate over the extended -40°C to +85°C temperature range. APPLICATIONS
