250 kbps full-duplex transceiver for RS-485/RS-422 buses
The MAX13081EESA+T is a single RS-485/RS-422 transceiver from Analog Devices, delivering full-duplex communication at 250 kbps over a single differential pair per direction.
Receiver hysteresis and noise margin
The 100 mV receiver hysteresis provides 50 mV of noise margin above the RS-485 minimum differential threshold of ±200 mV, reducing false triggers on long cable runs or in electrically noisy environments. At 250 kbps, the data rate is well within the RS-485 standard's 10 Mbps ceiling, making this part suited for moderate-speed fieldbus links like Modbus RTU or Profibus DP at lower baud rates.
Temperature grade and industrial deployment
The 8-SOIC (0.154" width, 3.90 mm body) footprint matches standard SOIC-8 land patterns, with the supplier device package listed as 8-SOIC — no special pad geometry required.
