General Description
The MAX3362 low-power, high-speed transceiver for RS-485/RS-422 communication operates from a single +3.3V power supply. The device contains one differential transceiver consisting of a line driver and receiver.The transceiver operates at data rates up to 20Mbps, with an output skew of less than 6ns. Driver and receiver propagation delays are guaranteed below 50ns. This fast switching and low skew make the MAX3362 ideal for multidrop clock/data distribution applications.
