Introduction

The LTC1387 is a single 5V supply, single-port, logic-configurable RS232 or RS485 transceiver. The LTC1387 features Linear Technology’s usual high data rates (120kBd for RS232 and 5MBd for RS485), a loopback mode for self test, a micropower shutdown mode and ±7kV ESD protection at the driver output and receiver inputs. This part is targeted at handheld computers, point-of-sale terminals and applications that require a minimum pin count and software-controlled multiprotocol operation.
