SLLS550E November 2002 – March 2023 SN65HVD08 , SN75HVD08
PRODUCTION DATA
The RS-485 standard specifies that a compliant driver must be able to driver 32 unit loads (UL), where 1 unit load represents a load impedance of approximately 12 kΩ. Because the SN65HVD08 and SN75HVD08 are each 1/8 UL transceivers, it is possible to connect up to 256 receivers to the bus.
