SN65HVD230DG4 datasheet by Texas Instruments

SN65HVD230DG4 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum cable length supported by the SN65HVD230DG4?
  The maximum cable length supported by the SN65HVD230DG4 is dependent on the specific application and the type of cable used. However, as a general guideline, the device can support cable lengths of up to 100 meters at a data rate of 100 Mbps.
• How does the SN65HVD230DG4 handle common-mode voltage?
  The SN65HVD230DG4 has a common-mode voltage range of -7V to 12V, which allows it to operate in noisy environments with high levels of electromagnetic interference (EMI). The device also has a high common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) to minimize the effects of common-mode voltage on the signal.
• What is the power consumption of the SN65HVD230DG4?
  The power consumption of the SN65HVD230DG4 is typically around 150 mW at a supply voltage of 3.3V and a data rate of 100 Mbps. However, the actual power consumption may vary depending on the specific application and operating conditions.
• Is the SN65HVD230DG4 compatible with other RS-485 transceivers?
  Yes, the SN65HVD230DG4 is compatible with other RS-485 transceivers that comply with the EIA/TIA-485 standard. However, it's recommended to verify the compatibility of the specific transceiver with the SN65HVD230DG4 in the target application.
• How does the SN65HVD230DG4 handle hot swapping?
  The SN65HVD230DG4 has built-in protection against hot swapping, which allows it to withstand the high voltages and currents that can occur when a device is connected or disconnected from the bus. The device also has a high level of electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection to prevent damage from static electricity.
