Key Differentiators
- 50 Mbps data rate (vs MAX3485E)
- Wide VIO range (1.62 V to 5.5 V) (vs SN65HVD72)
- ±12 kV IEC ESD protection (vs MAX3485E)
Design Notes
Place 0.1 µF decoupling capacitors close to the VCC and VIO pins to filter high-frequency noise. Use a 10 µF bulk capacitor on VCC if the supply is shared with other components. Keep the traces between the transceiver and the bus connector as short as possible to minimize parasitic inductance and reflections.
Terminate the RS-485 bus with 120 Ω resistors at both ends to match the characteristic impedance of the twisted-pair cable. This prevents signal reflections that can cause data errors at 50 Mbps. For longer cable runs, consider using a bias network (pull-up on A and pull-down on B) to ensure a defined idle state.
Do not exceed the absolute maximum ratings for VCC and VIO. Ensure the VIO voltage does not exceed VCC by more than 0.3 V to avoid latch-up. When the bus is idle, the receiver output may be undefined if the A and B pins are left floating; use bias resistors to set a known state. Also, avoid enabling the driver and receiver simultaneously in half-duplex mode.
