#155167 - then try MAX3158
Responding to: ???'s previous message
What is wrong with sn75lbc176 or even old 75176 in my application - that is quiestion?
Nothing... as long as
.. you do not need galvanic isolation
.. you use 3 resistor termination
.. you do not need a high CMRR (common mode rejection rarto)

Linear have good prices (6.5USD) for LTC1535CSW , but
- where to buy chips (no Digikey, no Mouser) - online minimum is 250USD+68USD Fedex
- where to buy transformer - listed in datasheet are not listed in Digikey or Mouser.

then try MAX3158

If You really are interested about galvanic isolation -
i have 5 silos with weigh scales . Nobody cant guarantee what will happen in rainy day.

a short/leak/whatever will hurt a galvanically isolated 485 bus just as much as a non-isolated.
