Example Application: Isolated Bus Node with Transient Protection
- RS-485-compliant bus interface (needs
differential signal amplitude of at least 1.5V under fully-loaded conditions –
essentially, maximum number of nodes connected and with dual 120Ω
termination).
- Galvanic isolation of both signal and power supply lines.
- Able to withstand ESD transients up to 12kV (per
IEC 61000-4-2) and EFTs up to 4kV (per IEC 61000-4-4).
- Full control of data flow on bus in order to
prevent contention (for half-duplex communication).
