THVD1410: Max signaling rate

Part Number: THVD1410

Hi team,

My customer use thvd1410, their signal rate is 500kbps, it's just the max for thvd1410, can it work? the number of devices is 32.

Thanks,

Colin

  • 500 kbps is guaranteed as long as you stay inside the recommended operating conditions.

    One THVD1410 is one eighth of a unit load, so you could use 256.

  • Thanks Cemens!

    Colin, keep in mind that characteristics of the RS-485 such as overall length and topology can also impact the achievable data rate. With the slower slew rate of this device, it should be able to handle some more difficult configurations, but it's still recommended to follow best practices when it comes to cable layout. 

    Let us know if you have any more questions.

    Regards,
    Eric Schott
