Design a Custom BoardAbout This Component
Half-duplex RS-485 transceiver IC in 8-pin µMAX package. Provides single differential driver and receiver for industrial serial communication networks. Operating voltage 4.75V to 5.25V with slew-rate limiting to reduce EMI. Commonly used in industrial automation, building control, and distributed sensor networks.
Package: MSOP-8 · 8 pins
Why does this need a breakout?
The 0.65mm pitch and tiny 3×3mm form factor make hand soldering challenging and impractical for breadboard prototyping. A breakout board converts this compact SMD package into a standard header layout, enabling reliable connections and rapid iteration without specialized soldering equipment or rework risk.
