Differential, and in particular RS-422 receivers, have experienced renewed popularity thanks to their versatility. Nonetheless, our applications team still contends with a number of questions: ...

Ready for RS-485 and RS-422 communication, the MAX3293, MAX3294 and MAX3295 transmitters operate from a single 3.3V supply and consume less than 5 mA when unloaded. Each device ...

Since all serial logic is FPGA based, almost any RS-422/RS485 protocol can be supported. The I/O connector is a 68 pin high density type compatible with standard 100 ohm differential cables. On card ...

The device’s ESD level is rated at 15kV air gap and 8kV contact discharge to IEC61000-4-2 on the RS-485/RS-422 bus pins and 9kV HBM on all of the other pins. The ISL3259E has enhanced output ...

RS-485 is an extension of RS-422 that is intended for multipoint buses. That means multiple drivers can be attached to a common differential bus. The standard dictates that up to 32 “unit loads” can ...

With no change to associated computer hardware or software, the device, called ADAM-4520A, transparently converts RS-232 signals to RS-422 or RS-485. It “allows users to take advantage of RS-422 and ...

The SPI to RS-485/RS-422 slave extends the ADcmXL3021 SPI output over 10 m back to the master controller for vibration data analysis. The SPI to RS-485 designs use phantom power 100 µH inductors and 3 ...
