20 Mbps RS422/RS485 driver for 5V industrial buses
The MAX3045BEWE+ is a quad (4/0) driver IC for RS422 and RS485 differential buses, delivering 20 Mbps data rate across a single 5V supply rail (4.75V to 5.25V). The 4/0 driver count means four differential outputs with no internal receivers — the BOM pairs this with a separate RS485 receiver IC if bidirectional communication is needed.
Package and board-fit: 16-SOIC wide-body
Surface-mount assembly with tube shipment; the 1.27 mm pitch is compatible with conventional reflow profiles and does not require via-in-pad or blind vias for fan-out.
