The SP3490 and SP3491 devices are +3.3V low power full-duplex transceivers that meet the specifications of the RS-485 and RS-422 serial protocols. These devices are pin-to-pin compatible with the MaxLinear SP490 and SP491 devices as well as popular industry standards. The SP3490 and SP3491 feature MaxLinear's BiCMOS process, allowing low power operation without sacrificing performance. The SP3490 and SP3491 meet the electrical specifications of the RS-485 and RS-422 serial protocols up to 10Mbps under load. The SP3491 is identical to the SP3490 with the addition of driver and receiver tri-state enable lines.
- Full Duplex RS-485 and RS-422 Transceivers

For RS-232 it is 50 feet (15 meters), or the cable length equal to a capacitance of 2500 pF, at a maximum transmission rate of 19.2kbps. When we reduce the baud rate, it allows for longer cable length. For Example:
Baud Rate (bps) | Maximum RS-232 Cable Length (ft) |
19200 | 50 |
9600 | 500 |
4800 | 1000 |
2400 | 3000 |
Fail Safe is an attempt to keep the output of the RS-485 receiver to a known state. Transceivers may have standard fail safe or advanced / enhanced receiver fail safe features. Standard fail safe supports open inputs while enhanced fail safe transceivers such as the SP339 and XR34350 support open input, shorted input and undriven terminated lines without external biasing. See Application Note ANI-22 for more detail.
