DESCRIPTION
The
SP483
and
SP485
are half-duplex
Receivers
differential transceivers that meet the
SP483 and SP485
requirements of RS-485 and RS-422. Fabricated with an
Exar

Input impedance of the receivers is typically 15kΩ (12kΩ minimum). The RS-485 standard is ideal for multi-drop A wide common mode range of -7V to +12V applications and for long-distance interfaces. allows for large ground potential differences RS-485 allows up to 32 drivers and 32 between systems. The receivers of the receivers to be connected to a data bus,
