Maxim introduced the MAX14770E PROFIBUS-DP/RS-485 transceiver. Maxim's next-generation BiCMOS process technology enables the device to achieve fast (20Mbps) data throughput while integrating robust (±35kV, HBM) ESD-protected structures in a small TQFN package.
AddiThe MAX14770E provides flexibility with the industry's widest supply range tolerance (+5V ±10%). It is available in a small (3mm x 3mm), automotive-grade, 8-pin TQFN package, as well as an industry-standard, 8-pin SO package that is specified over the -40 degrees Celsius to +85 degrees Celsius temperature range. Prices start at $1.90 (1000-up, FOB USA).
