Half-duplex RS-485 transceiver at 200 kbps — what the data rate tells you
That data rate places it in the low-speed tier of the 3.3V/5V RS-485 family — fine for industrial sensor networks, building automation, and PLC links where the cable run is long and the update rate is modest. The 30 mV receiver hysteresis cleans up slow edges on long stubs without external schmitt triggers.
Supply and temperature — fits a 5V industrial rail
No extended-temperature variant needed unless the ambient pushes past 85°C.
Package and footprint — 8-VSSOP
Listed as Active on the TI product status.
