The recommended operating voltage range for the BUV48A is 4.5V to 5.5V, although it can operate from 3.5V to 18V with reduced performance.
To ensure proper biasing, connect the VCC pin to a stable 5V power supply, and decouple it with a 100nF capacitor to ground. Also, ensure the input voltage is within the recommended range and the output is properly terminated.
The BUV48A supports data transfer rates up to 100 Mbps, making it suitable for high-speed applications.
To ensure ESD protection, use a TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) diode or a dedicated ESD protection device, such as the STMicroelectronics ESDAxx series, in conjunction with the BUV48A.
The BUV48A is rated for operation up to 125°C, but its performance may degrade at higher temperatures. Ensure proper heat sinking and thermal management to maintain reliable operation.
