Bkm-10rlternative
skumlos/bkm-10rlternative
Project aiming to replicate the BKM-10R/11R remote for Sony professional CRT monitors.

The MAX491EPD is a RS 485 , RS 422 IC made by Maxim Integrated (Analog Devices) in a PDIP-14 package with 14 pins. -40℃~+85℃ 1 1 2.5Mbps 4.75V~5.25V Transceiver PDIP-14 RS-485 / RS-422 ICs.
PCBKit's library has its KiCad symbol (Interface_UART:MAX491E, from KiCad's library) and its footprint (Package_DIP:DIP-14_W8.89mm_SMDSocket_LongPads, from KiCad's library), ready for a KiCad board. JLCPCB lists it (part C3212097). 8 open-source boards in 3 repositories on GitHub use it.
