MxL8312x Half-Duplex RS-485/422 Transceivers

MaxLinear MxL8312x Half-Duplex RS-485/422 Transceivers include the MxL83121 and MxL83122 (MxL8312x family) devices, which support up to 500kbps communication in harsh industrial environments. The MaxLinear MxL8312x transceivers contain one driver and one receiver. The bus pins tolerate high levels of IEC electrical fast transients (EFT) and IEC electrostatic discharge (ESD), providing an extended common mode range. These transceivers with slew-controlled 250kbps and 500kbps speeds are specifically designed to excel at long-distance communication. The combination of integrated EFT and ESD protection, wide common mode, and low slew rate provide a high degree of protection, immunity to noise, and ultra-low EMI.
