LTC491IS

Single Transmitter/Receiver RS-422/RS-485 14Pin SOIC N

DESCRIPTION

The LTC®491 is a low power differential bus/line trans ceiver designed for multipoint data transmission standard RS485 applications with extended common mode range 12V to –7V. It also meets the requirements of RS422. The CMOS design offers significant power savings over its bipolar counterpart without sacrificing ruggedness against overload or ESD damage.
