STMicroelectronics ST3485EBDR is a high-performance differential line transceiver IC specifically designed for reliable RS-485 communications in demanding industrial and automotive environments. This IC integrates both a driver and a receiver function within a compact 8-pin SOIC surface mount package, making it suitable for space-sensitive PCB layouts.
Equipped with differential input and output capability, the ST3485EBDR ensures enhanced noise immunity, minimizing interference and enabling robust data exchange over longer cable runs. The device operates across a wide supply voltage range from 3V to 7V, allowing versatile application in multiple circuit designs and power configurations.
The transceiver supports maximum high and low level output currents of -4mA and 4mA, optimizing signal strength and reliability. With a fast propagation delay time of just 50ns, it is capable of high-speed serial communication, ideal for modern automation, process control, instrumentation networks, and automotive data buses.
Surface mounting via SOIC makes installation straightforward in automated production settings, and its small profile (height 1.75mm) assists in maintaining overall board density. The 8-pin layout simplifies design and integration with microcontrollers or specialized logic interfaces.
Operating temperature is specified from -40°C to 125°C, accommodating harsh industrial environments and automotive applications. The ST3485EBDR fulfills AEC-Q100, AEC-Q002, IEC 61000-4-2, AEC-Q001, and AEC-Q003 standards, confirming its suitability for safety-critical and high-reliability systems. Supply current is a low 2.2mA, contributing to energy efficiency.
Typical applications include factory automation, motor control, sensor networks, industrial field buses, automotive diagnostics, and general equipment interface. Its compliance with key automotive standards assures designers of reliable operation within vehicle data networks and harsh environments.
