Welcome to the Linear Technology LTC2876 and LTC2877 PROFIBUS Transceivers product training module. This presentation will introduce users to both of these special RS485 transceivers, which were specifically designed and tested to meet the latest PROFIBUS IEC 61158-2 specification. They will also learn about how PROFIBUS differs slightly from RS485 and why they can’t simply use any RS485 transceiver in any PROFIBUS system.
