Analog Devices MAX14857

Description

The MAX14857/MAX14859 isolated RS-485/RS-422 transceivers provide 5000VRMS (60s) of galvanic isolation between the cable-side (RS-485/RS-422 driver/receiver-side) and the UART-side of the device. Isolation improves communication by breaking ground loops and reduces noise when there are large differences in ground potential between ports. These devices allow for robust communication up to 500kbps (MAX14857) or 25Mbps (MAX14859).
