1. RS485 Bus Principle

Due to the difference in voltage levels between RS485 and TTL standards, voltage level conversion chips are required to achieve data conversion between the two.



RS-485 employs balanced transmission and differential reception to facilitate communication. Because twisted-pair cables are commonly used for transmission lines and they offer differential inputs, RS-485 exhibits strong immunity to common-mode interference. Operating in half-duplex mode, RS-485 supports multi-point data communication. The typical bus network topology adopts a bus-type structure with terminal matching, where a single bus interconnects various nodes. RS-485 bus networks typically support up to 32 nodes, although specialized RS-485 chips can achieve a maximum of 128 or 256 nodes, with some capable of supporting up to 400 nodes.


2.The Key Features of XBLW MAX3485 RS-485 transceiver:

- Operates with 3-5V power supply and in half-duplex mode.

- Supports up to 256 devices connected to the bus with 1/8 unit loads.

- Driver short-circuit output protection and receiver open-circuit fail-safe protection.

- Includes thermal shutdown and low-power shutdown functions.

- Exhibits strong noise immunity and integrated transient voltage suppression capability.

- Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection up to ±15KV HBM ESD.

- Data transmission rates up to 10Mbps in electrically noisy environments.

- Common-mode input voltage range from -8V to 13V.
