MAX34711.6µA, RS-485/RS-422, Half Duplex, Differential Transceiver for Battery-Powered Systems | Interface | 6 | Active | The MAX3471 half-duplex transceiver is intended for lithium battery-powered RS-485/RS-422 applications. It draws only 1.6µA (typical) supply current from a 3.6V supply with the receiver enabled and the driver disabled. Its wide 2.5V to 5.5V supply voltage guarantees operation over the lifetime of a lithium battery.This device features true fail-safe operation that guarantees a logic-high receiver output when the receiver inputs are open or shorted. This means that the receiver output will be a logic high if all transmitters on a terminated bus are disabled (high impedance). The MAX3471 has a 1/8-unit load input resistance. When driver outputs are enabled and pulled above VCC or below GND, internal circuitry prevents battery back-charging.The MAX3471 is available in an 8-pin µMAX package.ApplicationsBattery-Powered Differential CommunicationsLevel TranslatorsRemote Meter Reading |

Transceivers, optocouplers, and a transformer are all included in one low-cost, 28-pin DIP package. A single +3.3V supply on the logic side powers both sides of the interface.The MAX3480B features reduced-slew-rate drivers that minimize EMI and reduce reflections caused by improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free data transmission at data rates up to 250kbps. The MAX3480A's driver slew rate is not limited, allowing transmission rates up to 2.5Mbps.These devices typically draw 180mA of quiescent supply current. The MAX3480B provides a low-power shutdown mode in which it consumes only 0.2µA.Drivers are short-circuit current limited and are protected against excessive power dissipation by thermal shutdown circuitry that places the driver outputs into a high-impedance state. The receiver input has a fail-safe feature that guarantees a logic-high output if the input is open circuit.The MAX3480A/MAX3480B typically withstand 1600VRMS(1 minute) or 2000VRMS(1 second).
