Descriptions:

The MAX481ECSA+T is a low-power, slew-rate-limited transceiver designed for RS-485 and RS-422 communication. It features a single driver and receiver, making it suitable for half-duplex applications. The device includes a shutdown mode for power savings and is optimized for balanced data transmission over long distances.

Features:

• Low-power operation
• Slew-rate-limited for reduced EMI
• Half-duplex communication
• Thermal shutdown protection
• Short-circuit current limiting
• Compatible with RS-485 and RS-422 standards
• High ESD protection (±15kV)
• Available in an 8-pin SOIC package
