DS3695/DS3695T/DS3696/DS3696T/DS3697/DS3698
Multipoint RS485/RS422 Transceivers/Repeaters
General Description
The DS3695, DS3696, DS3697 and DS3698 are high speed
differential TRI-STATE bus/line transceivers/repeaters

High impedance to bus with driver in TRI-STATE or

a thermal shutdown circuit, which forces the driver outputs
into the high impedance state. The DS3696 and DS3698
provide an output pin TS (thermal shutdown) which reports
the occurrence of the thermal shutdown of the device. This
is an ‘‘open collector’’ pin with an internal 10 kX pull-up
resistor. This allows the line fault outputs of several devices
to be wire OR-ed.
