ADM483EARZ-REEL is a same-package RS485 candidate but needs pinout and AutoDirection review.
MAX13487EESA+T alternatives should be checked as RS485 transceivers first. Same package alone is not enough for a drop-in claim.
data rate and ESD need check
SOIC-8 package matches
direction control may change
candidate is active and indexed
No pin-compatible replacement is verified from the provided evidence.
Review ADM483EARZ-REEL only as a functional RS485 candidate, not a drop-in.
AutoDirection and pinout mismatch.
