MAX491ESD Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MAX491ESD from Analog Devices (formerly Maxim Integrated) is a low-power transceiver designed for RS-485 and RS-422 communication. Each part contains one driver and one receiver. The driver slew rates are not limited, allowing for transmission speeds of up to 2.5Mbps. These transceivers operate from a single 5V supply, with a voltage range of 4.75V to 5.25V. They draw between 120µA and 500µA of supply current when unloaded or fully loaded with disabled drivers.

 

Drivers are protected against excessive power dissipation by thermal shutdown circuitry. The receiver input includes a fail-safe feature that guarantees a logic-high output if the input is open circuit. The MAX491ESD is suitable for applications requiring low-power RS-485 and RS-422 transceivers, level translators, and transceivers for EMI-sensitive applications or industrial-control local area networks.

 

This device is available in a 14-SOIC package and is designed for surface mount applications. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C (TA). The protocol supported includes RS422 and RS485, with a duplex configuration of Full. Receiver hysteresis is rated at 70mV.
