How do I connect the MAX485 to a microcontroller?
Connect RO to the MCU UART receive pin and DI to the UART transmit pin. Tie DE and RE together and drive them from a GPIO pin to switch between transmit and receive. Connect A and B to the twisted pair of the bus.
Does it work with a 3.3V microcontroller?
The MAX485 is specified for a 5 V supply. With a 3.3 V microcontroller, check the logic levels on the RO output and the DI input, and use a level shifter where needed. Termination resistors of about 120 Ω at each end of a long bus are commonly used.
