The HI-4850 is a slew-rate controlled TIA-485/TIA-422-B and ISO 8482:1993 compliant transceiver. The device can operate over an extended power-supply range (3.0V to 5.5V) and wide common mode voltage range (-15V to +20V). The HI-4850 has a half-duplex configuration, with slew rate optimized for data rates below 5 Mbps. The driver slew-rate control and pre-emphesis reduces high-frequency components in the output signal transitions along with compensating for impedance mismatch. These features provide optimum EMI and jitter performance essential in EMI sensitive environments and high-integrity data link applications such as industrial automation.

The device delivers at least ± 1.54V and ± 2.45V output drive at worst-case supply voltages of 3.0V and 4.5V respectively, over an extended temperature range of -55°C to +125°C into a differential load of 54Ω and 100pF.

The receiver offers true Fail-Safe operation, providing a guaranteed logic high on RO when the bus is open-circuit, short-circuit or idle (terminated but not driven). The receiver minimum input resistance is 90KΩ, supporting up to 224 nodes per bus.

The device comes in a compact 8-pin SOIC package.
