Re: [AVR-Chat] Differential Line Driver

2004-10-22 by James Wagner

RS422 driver ought to do it. If its old, it probably has a
75176 or variant. They are a somewhat "heavier" load than
most modern receivers. If the line length is fairly short
(say, up to 25' or so), you don't need to terminate it
quite so carefully. There is no real compatibility problem
with newer drivers (ie, MAX485) and older receivers.

I would connect commons (if not connected thru coax shield)
and the digital pair.
