It integrates the digital isolator, transceiver, and an isolated DC-DC power supply into a single 32-BBGA package. That means one component handles both signal and power isolation, so you skip the separate isolated supply module and its associated board space. Rated for 20 Mbps on the data lines, it keeps up with high-speed industrial protocols like Profibus or Modbus over RS485. The magnetic coupling technology provides 2500 Vrms of galvanic isolation between the bus side and the logic side, which is what you need when the cable runs between buildings or across a factory floor with different ground potentials. Common-mode transient immunity is specified at 30 kV/µs minimum. In a motor-drive or inverter environment where the bus voltage slams up and down at the switching frequency, that CMTI keeps the receiver from misinterpreting a voltage spike as a data edge. The isolated power output on the bus side is also 5 V, which means you can power the bus transceivers and any external bias resistors directly from the module without an extra regulator. ## Package reality for the board and the bench It comes in a 32-BBGA module (15 mm x 11.25 mm BGA footprint). That is a ball-grid array, not a QFP — you need a reflow oven or a hot-air station with a BGA nozzle to attach it. The module includes the transformer for the isolated power inside the package, so the magnetic components are already shielded. No external transformer or inductor to route around. The BGA footprint is 1.27 mm pitch, which is manageable with standard PCB design rules. That covers most indoor industrial cabinets and office environments, but if the panel lives in an unheated warehouse or sees engine-bay heat, you need to look at the industrial-temperature variants in the µModule family. ## Lifecycle and compliance — no LTB surprise It is ROHS3 compliant, which means it meets the current European restriction on hazardous substances including the four phthalates. No special handling documentation needed for EU-market shipments.","metaTitle":"LTM2881CY-5#PBF Isolated RS422/RS485 Transceiver, 20 Mbps","metaDescription":"LTM2881CY-5#PBF is an Analog Devices µModule isolated RS422/RS485 transceiver with integrated power. 20 Mbps data rate, 2500 Vrms isolation, 30 kV/µs CMTI.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"µModule®","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"ROHS3 Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Digital Isolators"],"specifications":{"Type":"RS422, RS485","Series":"µModule®","Package":"Tray","Data Rate":"20Mbps","Technology":"Magnetic Coupling","Channel Type":"Unidirectional","Mounting Type":"Surface Mount","Isolated Power":"Yes","Package / Case":"32-BBGA Module","lifecycle_stage":"eol_hot","Voltage - Supply":"4.5V ~ 5.5V","Number of Channels":"2","Voltage - Isolation":"2500Vrms","Operating Temperature":"0°C ~ 70°C","Inputs - Side 1/Side 2":"1/1","Supplier Device Package":"32-BGA (15x11.25)","Common Mode Transient Immunity (Min)":"30kV/µs"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$21.1","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$21.10000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$19.39600","currency":"USD"},{"qty":25,"price":"$18.59160","currency":"USD"},{"qty":119,"price":"$16.38067","currency":"USD"},{"qty":238,"price":"$15.57672","currency":"USD"},{"qty":476,"price":"$14.57176","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/2881fj.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the closest functional second-source to the LTM2881CY-5#PBF?","answer":"The ADM2582EBRWZ-REEL7 is the closest functional peer.
