The MAX3086ESD+ is an integrated circuit (IC) component developed by Maxim Integrated. It is a low-power RS-485/RS-422 transceiver that provides robust communication in harsh industrial environments. This device is specifically designed to withstand high levels of electromagnetic noise, making it suitable for applications such as industrial automation, process control systems, and instrumentation.
One of the key features of the MAX3086ESD+ is its rugged and reliable design. It meets the industry-standard ESD protection requirements, with ±15kV human-body model (HBM) and ±15kV IEC61000-4-2 air-gap discharge, ensuring robustness against sudden electrostatic discharge events. Additionally, this transceiver has a wide common-mode voltage range (-7V to +12V), which enables communication in noisy environments and allows for flexibility in various system configurations.
The MAX3086ESD+ supports both RS-485 and RS-422 standards, which are commonly used in industrial applications. It features a full-duplex data transmission, allowing simultaneous data reception and transmission, and provides a high data rate of up to 250kbps, enabling fast and efficient communication. Moreover, this IC has a low quiescent supply current of only 125µA, contributing to lower power consumption and prolonging battery life in portable applications
