Explaining RS485 Transmitter Crosstalk Issues and Solutions

Explaining RS485 Transmitter Crosstalk Issues and Solutions

1. Signal Crosstalk Crosstalk refers to the coupling phenomenon between two signal lines. Due to the close spatial distance, there will be unwanted inductive and capacitive coupling between the signal lines, leading to mutual interference. Capacitive coupling can cause coupling currents, while inductive coupling can cause coupling voltages. This is a tricky issue in circuit … Read more

Differences Between RS485 2W and RS485 4W Touchscreen Serial Interfaces

Differences Between RS485 2W and RS485 4W Touchscreen Serial Interfaces

We see that this touchscreen serial interface has RS485 as well as RS232. Here, we will briefly explain and distinguish between the serial interfaces RS485/RS232/RS422. RS232:Is a three-wire communication (1 transmitting wire, 1 receiving wire, and 1 common wire which is the reference ground GND). RS422:Is a four-wire communication (1 for transmitting +, 1 for … Read more
