Low EMI converter transformers approved for use with Analog Devices’ high speed transceivers
Murata Power Solutions has introduced a new series of converter transformers specifically designed for use with Analog Devices’ ADM2482/7 transceiver chipsets used to provide isolated RS-485 and RS-422 interfaces. The 782482 series has carefully controlled turns ratios to ensure consistent performance whilst a toroidal construction helps minimise electromagnetic interference (EMI).
HousAn industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C makes the 782482 series suitable for use in a wide range of applications. Both models are RoHS compliant and backward compatible with Sn/Pb soldering systems. Surface mount versions of the new converter transformers are under development.
Analog Devices’ ADM2482/7 are isolated data transceivers with ±15 kV ESD protection and are suitable for high speed, half-duplex or full-duplex communication on multipoint transmission lines. The devices employ the Analog Devices iCoupler® technology to combine a three-channel isolator, a three-state differential line driver, and a differential input receiver into a single package.
