What is MAX490MJA/883B? It is the 883B military ordering code for the MAX490 full-duplex RS-485/RS-422 transceiver. Analog Devices' military data sheet identifies it as device type 07 in the J8 eight-lead CERDIP package and specifies operation from -55°C to +125°C with a 5 V ±5% supply. The commercial family data sheet shows that MAX490 has one driver and one receiver for full-duplex communication, supports data rates up to 2.5 Mbps, and is not slew-rate limited.
The exact MAX490 limits must not be borrowed from neighboring family members. MAX490 uses a 12 kΩ minimum receiver input resistance, and the family selection table specifies 32 devices on the bus; the reduced-rate and quarter-unit-load features shown elsewhere in the family table do not apply to this model. ZZX Electronics lists 7,500 pcs with date code 2113. Before acceptance, verify the full top marking, J8 ceramic package, lot/date code, 883B/SMD paperwork required by the order, electrical-test scope and storage history. The cited military data sheet does not by itself establish radiation hardness. Send an RFQ for current lot photos, traceability and inspection options.
