Kindly Suggest Alternate Part for ST3485EIDT

Hi Eric Hackett,

Thank you for your suggestion.

Suggested part is fine, but price is very expensive compare to ST3485EIDT. If it possible could you please suggest any other cost effective part with similar feature?

Thanks and regards,

Naveen,

We have some older devices, like the SN65HVD70, that are pin-to-pin compatible and supplied with 3.3V. However, with our older devices, they have slower data rates, and different ESD protection levels. What are the customer requirements for ESD and data rate?

Naveen,

The THVD1400 family of the devices I previously mentioned are the only devices in our portfolio that match those needs. The THVD1449, THVD1420, and THVD1426 would all work along with what I suggested in my first reply, but my assumption is those are close to the same cost.
