Description
The TIDA-00731 is a reference design examining how to protect an RS-485 bus against lethal transient waveforms such as IEC ESD, IEC EFT, and IEC surge. The reference design shows the level of protection that can be achieved through the implementation of an external protection scheme on the bus lines of a standard RS-485 transcever as well as a RS-485 tranceiver with integrated IEC protection.
Features
- Board Level IEC ESD Evaluation
- Easy control of transceivers logic I/O pins
- PAD Site Evaluation Of Multiple TVS Diode Structures
- Series Pulse Proof Resistor Pads
- General Purpose Evaluation Module For Half-Duplex RS-485 Transceivers
