1. ADM1485JRZ-REEL Substitution Conclusion
The ADM1485JRZ-REEL is a viable substitute for the SP1485EEN-L, as both devices are highly compatible in key specifications: they share a 5V supply voltage range (4.75V–5.25V), an 8-SOIC package, and identical protocol and duplex mode. Differences lie in the ADM1485JRZ-REEL’s higher data rate (30 Mbps vs. 20 Mbps) and greater receiver hysteresis (70 mV vs. 20 mV). The higher data rate supports faster communication and can improve system bandwidth performance, while the larger hysteresis enhances noise immunity—making it suitable for industrial or noisy environments—though it may slightly reduce receiver sensitivity. Overall, these differences do not prevent substitution and may even offer performance benefits; however, pinout and signal compatibility should be verified to ensure seamless integration.
2. ADM3485EARZ-REEL Substitution Conclusion
The ADM3485EARZ-REEL is not suitable as a direct replacement for the SP1485EEN-L, primarily due to supply voltage mismatch (3V–3.6V vs. 4.75V–5.25V) and lower data rate (10 Mbps vs. 20 Mbps). The voltage difference would require modifications to the board’s power design, such as adding voltage conversion or adjusting the power delivery network; otherwise, device damage or malfunction may occur. The lower data rate limits communication speed and may fail to meet the original system’s requirement for 20 Mbps high-speed transmission, thereby impacting overall performance. Although the higher receiver hysteresis (50 mV vs. 20 mV) provides better noise margin, this does not offset the fundamental barriers posed by the voltage and speed discrepancies. Substitution should only be considered if the system can accept 3.3V operation and a lower data rate; otherwise, a circuit redesign is necessary.
