MAX485 does it need docupling capacitors

Hi I am designing small device with two MAX485 chips

Do they need the decoupling capacitors on the 5V power?

    This really depends on the impedance and inductance of your supply to the chip; a decoupling capacitor is generally best practice, generally has low cost/complexity for assembly, and shouldn't hurt.

    As a general rule ALL IC's should have ample decoupling capacitors.

    The bypass cap are almost universally used with the purpose of minimising the power supply impedance.

    Sometimes you can share decoupling caps if you know the feed inductance (e.g. 10nH/cm * length * 2), current rise time and tolerance for LdI/dt=V drop

Yes. All ICs need decoupling capacitors. Devices such as these drivers really need them due to the current changes the device experiences due to the low value termination resistors used on the bus lines.

    You could debate whether all ICs strictly need decoupling caps, but it never hurts to add some.

Berlina muro

Image
La berlina muro ĉe Bethaniendamm, 1986 La berlina muro aŭ simple la muro [1] , nomita ankaŭ "kontraŭfaŝisma remparo" en propaganda lingvo de la iama Germana Demokratia Respubliko, estis parto de la interngermana limo, kiu dividis de la 13-a de aŭgusto 1961 ĝis la 9-a de novembro 1989 okcidentan Berlinon de la orienta parto de la urbo kaj de la ĉirkaŭa tereno de la GDR. Ĝi estis unu el la plej famaj simboloj de la malvarma milito kaj de la disdivido de Germanio. Pli ol simpla muro, la berlina muro estis fakte tuta defendokonstruaĵo kun du muroj, ena malplena strio, rondirvojo, gardturoj kaj alarmsistemoj. Dum la provo transiri la severe garditan limon al okcidenta Berlino multaj homoj estis mortigitaj. La preciza nombro de viktimoj estas pridisputita kaj ne certa; la nombroj anoncataj varias inter 86 kaj 238 mortintoj. La malplifortiĝo de Sovetunio kaj la politiko de liberigo gvidita de Miĥail Gorbaĉov ebligis al la orientgermanoj faligi la 9-an de novembro 1989 l...
