Multiprotocol Transceivers

Multiprotocol transceivers are analogue pin-configurable devices designed to support multiple protocol-switching applications. They allow switching between unidirectional or full duplex operation and enabling or disabling termination resistors, reducing physical user intervention when the network is reconfigured. Multiprotocol Transceivers support RS232, RS485, and RS422 protocols and operate at different voltage supplies depending on the type of the transceiver. Transceiver analog devices are configurable as half-duplex RS485 or RS232 transceivers, utilizing similar dual bus pins.
