At 16 Mbps, this transceiver supports high-speed polling or data acquisition loops where multiple nodes share a twisted-pair bus. The half-duplex architecture means the bus direction must be toggled between transmit and receive, so the protocol overhead (turnaround time, driver enable) needs to fit within the system timing budget.
If you are qualifying a new design, this transceiver is a safe choice for the next several years of production.
The MAX13488EESA+ supports a data rate of 16 Mbps in half-duplex mode over RS-485 or RS-422 networks.
It is a half-duplex transceiver, meaning the bus alternates between transmit and receive — only one driver is active at a time.
