The MAX3430 fault-protected RS-485 transceiver features
±80V protection from overvoltage signal faults on communication
bus lines. Each device contains one driver and
one receiver, and the output pins can withstand faults,
with respect to ground, of up to ±80V. Even if the faults
occur when the transceiver is active, shut down, or powered
off, the device will not be damaged. The MAX3430
operates from a 3.3V supply and features a slew-rate-limited
driver that minimizes EMI and reduces reflections
caused by improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free
data transmission at data rates up to 250kbps. The
MAX3430 has a 1/4-unit-load receiver input impedance
allowing up to 128 transceivers on a single bus and features
fail-safe circuitry, which guarantees a logic-high
receiver output when the receiver inputs are open.
Hot-swap circuitry eliminates false transitions on the
data cable during circuit initialization or connection to a
live backplane. Short-circuit current limiting and thermal-
shutdown circuitry protect the driver against excessive
power dissipation.
The MAX3430 is available in 8-pin SO and 8-pin PDIP
packages, and is specified over commercial and industrial
temperature ranges.
