The XR33032/35/38 family of high performance half duplex RS-485 transceivers are optimized to operate over a wide range of supply voltage, from +2.8V to +5.5V. The analog bus pins can withstand direct shorts up to ±18V, and are protected against ESD events up to ±15kV.
In an isolated application it may be more efficient to use a remote power supply rather than generating an isolated supply at every node. The XR33032/35/38 transceivers can operate with more than 2V IR drop in the cable when utilizing a remote 5V power supply. The transceivers draw less than 600μA, and typically only 300μA when idling with the receivers active.
The receivers include full fail-safe circuitry, guaranteeing a logic-high receiver output when the receiver inputs are open, shorted, or undriven. The receiver input impedance is 96kΩ (1/8 unit load), allowing up to 256 devices on the bus while preserving the full signal margin.
The drivers are protected by short circuit detection as well as thermal shutdown, and maintain high impedance in shutdown or when powered off. The XR33032 and XR33035 drivers are slew limited for reduced EMI and error-free communication over long or unterminated data cables.The DE and RE pins include hot swap circuitry to prevent false transitions on the bus during power-up or live insertion, and can enter a low current shutdown mode (40nA typically) for extreme power savings.

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.
