PRODUCTION DATA
As electrical loads are physically distanced from their power source, the effects of supply and return line impedance and the resultant voltage drop must be accounted. If the supply regulation at the load cannot be maintained to the circuit requirements, it forces the use of remote sensing, additional regulation at the load, bigger or shorter cables, or a combination of these. The SN65HVD08 eases this problem by relaxing the supply requirements to allow for more variation in the supply voltage over typical RS-485 transceivers.
