RS-485/RS-232/Controller Area Network Solutions

RS-485/RS-232/Controller Area Network Solutions
ADI offers one of the industry’s largest portfolios of RS-485, RS-232, and CAN transceivers, covering diverse connectivity needs. RS-485 supports long-distance, noise-resistant communication with up to 256 devices, which is ideal for industrial use. RS-232 suits simpler, short-range, point-to-point links. CAN provides similar robustness to RS-485 but adds message arbitration for greater reliability and communication hierarchy.
Value and Benefits
ADI’s RS-485 and CAN transceivers feature robust error detection and multinode capabilities and are designed for high reliability, real-time communication in automation, heavy machinery, and industrial settings. RS-232 is commonly used in point-to-point legacy systems and peripherals.
Higher profits with less factory downtime
Reduced BOM with integrated protection
Reduced logistics overhead

CAN Bus Transceivers Operate from 3.3V or 5V and Withstand ±60V Faults
Learn how robust CAN transceivers like the LTC2875 offer high voltage tolerance and wide common-mode operating range crucial to contemporary network applications.
