operating at 9600bps with 120 Ohm termination resistors at both ends .communication occurs perfectly in this case.
If i change one of the chips to SP485(Similar to MAX485) from exxar as shown below the circuit stops working(MSP430G2553 UART do not receive any data).
What voltage level conversion are you using to translate from the 5V levels output by the RS485 receivers? If you have nothing then it is possible to induce latchup in the 3V devices and destroy them. Even if you don’t get latchup the excess current demand could alter device operation.
You show only a twisted pair between the two systems. That should be shielded twisted pair with the shield terminated to both system grounds to control common mode voltage.

I am using a 30 cm long twisted pair wire for testing in the lab.The grounds for both the Transmitter and reciever are taken from a common point.
