#155122 - why galvanic isolation ?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
you have stated again and again "I need galvanic isolation" WHY?

I run 485 buses at very high speeds without any.

The only reason to use galvanic isolation is if you can not guarantee that the common mode voltage will not exceed the capability of the chip.

i planed SN75LBC176 (i have these)
just about the lousiest reason for choosing a chip (amateurs excluded)

LTC1535 - Isolated RS485 Transceiver "if you need isolation"
LT1785 - 60V Fault Protected RS485/RS422 Transceivers "industril strength"
