• Integrated protection increases robustness
• Transmitters and receivers protected against wiring faults
• True fail-safe receiver prevents false transition on receiver input short or open
• Short-circuit protection over the entire common mode voltage range
• Thermal protection from excessive power dissipation
• Slew rate limiting minimizes EM and reduces cable reflections
• Integrated charge-pump circuitry saves board space
• 1µA shutdown supply current saves power
• Allows Up to 256 transceivers on the bus
