MAX13087EASA+ RS-485/RS-422 Transceiver

The MAX13087EASA+ is a high-performance, half-duplex transceiver from Maxim Integrated, designed for RS-485 and RS-422 communication protocols. This device is engineered to provide reliable data transmission over long distances and in electrically noisy environments, making it an ideal choice for industrial, networking, and automation applications.

Key Features

• High-Speed Operation: The transceiver supports data rates up to 16Mbps, enabling fast and efficient data communication for modern industrial applications.
• Extended Temperature Range: With an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, the MAX13087EASA+ is built to withstand harsh environmental conditions.
• Fail-Safe Receiver: The device ensures a logic-high receiver output when the input is open-circuit, shorted, or idle, providing additional reliability and safety.
• Reduced Power Consumption: It features a low quiescent current, which helps in reducing the overall power consumption of the system where it is implemented.
• Integrated Protection: The transceiver includes protection against ±15kV electrostatic discharge (ESD) on the transceiver's bus pins, safeguarding the device from unexpected electrical spikes.
• True Fail-Safe Receiver: This feature ensures a known state on the receiver output when the inputs are shorted or open, which is critical for fault-tolerant systems.
