Mikroe RS485 5 Click

Mikroe RS485 5 Click is equipped with the Maxim Integrated MAX485 low-power, slew-rate-limited transceiver for RS-485 and RS-422 communication. The click supports half-duplex RS-485 communication. It is used as an interface between the TTL level UART and the RS485 communication bus. The click has low power consumption and reduced slew-rate drivers that minimize EMI and reduce reflections caused by improperly terminated cables. Error-free data transmission up to 250kbps is supported. The RS485 5 Click is ideal for EMI-Sensitive Applications, like industrial-control local area networks, building automation, HVAC systems, and more.

Features
