3.2 Simplification of RS-485 Design Process Using THVD1424

The THVD1424 is a flexible RS-485 transceiver – which means that its use can span multiple use cases over a range of operational conditions. To highlight this – the THVD1424’s specifications will be compared against the RS-485 system definition question list to see how this device will fit into the RS-485 interface.
