DS36C280 Slew Rate Controlled
CMOS EIA-RS-485 Transceiver
General Description
The DS36C280 is a low power differential bus/line transceiver designed to meet the requirements of RS-485 Standard for multipoint data transmission.
In addition, it is compatible with TIA/EIA-422-B.
The slew rate control feature allows the user to set the driver rise and fall times by using an external resistor.
Controlled edge rates can reduce switching EMI.
The
CMOS design offers significant power savings over its bipolar and ALS counterparts without sacrificing ruggedness against ESD damage.
The device is ideal for use in battery powered or po...
