The THVD1424 is a
flexible RS-485 transceiver for industrial applications. The device has features
such as on-chip 120-Ω termination resistor, slew rate control and interchangeability
between half and full duplex mode. All the features are pin-controlled. This enables
the device to be used at any node location (end nodes or middle nodes) in any
network, two-wire (half duplex) or 4-wire (full duplex), slow or fast. End-equipment
designers can now design a common printed circuit board (PCB) and configure it via
software for various application needs. This can save considerable design and
qualification time for the customers.
The bus pins are immune to high levels
of IEC Contact Discharge ESD events, eliminating the need for additional system
level protection components. The device operates from 3 to 5.5-V bus supply, while
the logic supply voltage range is 1.65 V to 5.5 V. The wide common-mode voltage
range and low input leakage on bus pins makes the devices suitable for multi-point
applications over long cable runs.
The device is available in a space-saving,
thermally efficient 16-pin VQFN package. The device is characterized for ambient
temperatures from –40°C to 125°C.
