Milpitas, Calif.—Galvanic isolation (meaning there is no ohmic signal path connecting the two sides of the interface) is the solution to many line and loop problems, as well as a way to avoid ...

The LTM2881 isolated RS-485 transceiver module features inductive signal isolation and a low-EMI dc/dc converter that powers the transceiver and provides an isolated 0.5-W 5-V supply output. The ...

Linear Technology Corporation has introduced the LTC2872 multiprotocol transceiver with switchable integrated termination for 3.3V and 5V systems. RS485 systems require a termination resistor on the ...

The RS-485 standard is a widely used differential bus with applications in many networks. Since the 1970s, semiconductor manufacturers have developed transceivers to transmit and receive RS-485 ...

RS485 is a communication standard that should be part of the advanced hardware hacker’s arsenal; it’s not commonly encountered, but powerful exactly when you need it. It’s a physical layer interface ...
