DESCRIPTION

The ST485E is al low power transceiver for RS-485 and RS-422 communication. Each driver output and receiver input is protected against ±15KV electrostatic discharge (H.B.M.) (ESD) shocks, without latcup. These parts contain one driver and one receiver in half duplex configuration.

This transceiver draw 300µA (typ.) of supply current when unloaded or fully loaded with disabled drivers.
