Half-duplex RS-485 transceiver for 5 V industrial buses
The 115 Kbps data rate is the maximum the driver can sustain. For most RS-485 sensor networks, actuator links, and Modbus RTU applications running at 9600 or 19200 baud, this part has headroom. If your design requires 1 Mbps or higher, this transceiver will not meet the timing budget; look at the SN65HVD17xx family for faster rates.
If your system runs on 3.3 V logic, this part needs a level translator or a separate 5 V supply — it is not a 3.3 V device.
For volume planning, the base product number 65HVD1785 covers multiple package and tape/reel variants, so alternate orderable options exist within the same die.
