RS-485 transceiver includes low voltage interface
Exar Corporation has announced the XR33202, a half-duplex, 20Mb/s RS-485 (TIA/EIA-485) transceiver optimised to operate over a wide 3-5.5V supply voltage range. The transceiver includes an adjustable low voltage logic interface and features the industry’s lowest standby current of 3μA (max), 0.05μA (typ).
The device’s wide operating voltage range, flexible logic interface, and low standby current make it suitable for battery-powered and multi-voltage systems.
"The adjustable low voltage interface included in the XR33202 simplifies integration of the transceiver in low voltage and multi-voltage systems," said Dale Wedel, Vice President, High Performance Analogue Products, Exar.
The XR33202 exceeds the highest ESD rating of IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4. It also includes protection features such as hot swap glitch, overload and enhanced receiver fail-safe for open, shorted or terminated idle data lines.
Specified over an extended temperature range of -40 to +125°C, the XR33202 is offered in RoHS compliant, green/halogen free, space-saving 3mm2 DFN package. 1,000-piece pricing starts at $1.60 each.
