GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADM2482E/ADM2487E are isolated data transceivers with
±±1 ꢀV ESD protection and are suitable for high speed, half-
duplex or full-duplex communication on multipoint transmission
lines. For half-duplex operation, the transmitter outputs and
receiver inputs share the same transmission line. Transmitter
Output Pin Y is linꢀed externally to Receiver Input Pin A, and
Transmitter Output Pin Z to Receiver Input Pin B. The parts
are designed for balanced transmission lines and comply with
TIA/EIA- 481-A-98 and ISO 8482:±987(E).
power. The logic side of the device can be powered with either
a 1 V or a 3.3 V supply, and the bus side is powered with an
isolated 3.3 V supply.
The ADM2482E/ADM2487E driver has an active high enable,
and the receiver has an active low enable. The driver output
enters a high impedance state when the driver enable signal
is low. The receiver output enters a high impedance state when
the receiver enable signal is high.
The device has current-limiting and thermal shutdown features
to protect against output short circuits and situations where bus
contention might cause excessive power dissipation. The part is
fully specified over the industrial temperature range of −40°C to
+81°C and is available in a ±6-lead, wide-body SOIC pacꢀage.
The devices employ the Analog Devices, Inc., iCoupler®
technology to combine a 3-channel isolator, a three-state
differential line driver, and a differential input receiver into a
single pacꢀage. An on-chip oscillator outputs a pair of square
waveforms that drive an external transformer to provide isolated
