The THVD80x0 Family of TI’s PowerBus Transceivers can be used to transmit Modulated RS-485 Signals on the same line as a power signal – eliminating the need for separate cables for power and data. The primary design focuses on DC power applications – however with slight modifications to the standard DC power system approach, the THVD80x0 Family of devices can be used in low voltage (<=36 V) applications and lower frequency (<=60 Hz). This document explains the modifications and motivations behind these changes so that the THVD80x0 can be adapted to these types of systems.
