SN65C3232DW datasheet by Texas Instruments

SN65C3232DW Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum data rate that the SN65C3232DW can support?
  The SN65C3232DW can support data rates up to 100 Mbps, making it suitable for high-speed applications.
• How does the SN65C3232DW handle common-mode voltage?
  The SN65C3232DW has a common-mode voltage range of -7V to 12V, allowing it to operate in noisy environments with high common-mode voltages.
• What is the purpose of the enable pin (EN) on the SN65C3232DW?
  The enable pin (EN) is used to enable or disable the transceiver. When EN is high, the transceiver is enabled, and when EN is low, the transceiver is disabled, allowing for power savings in idle mode.
• Can the SN65C3232DW be used in half-duplex mode?
  Yes, the SN65C3232DW can be used in half-duplex mode by connecting the transmitter output to the receiver input through an external switch or multiplexer.
• How does the SN65C3232DW handle bus contention?
  The SN65C3232DW has a built-in bus contention resolution mechanism that prevents data corruption in the event of simultaneous transmission by multiple devices on the bus.
