Working Principles

The MAX1486CUB+T is an RS-485/RS-422 transceiver that enables half-duplex communication between two devices. It uses differential signaling to transmit and receive data, allowing for reliable long-distance communication. The driver section converts the logic-level signals into a differential voltage output, while the receiver section converts the differential input into logic-level signals. The transceiver operates with low power consumption and provides robust ESD protection.
