Fault Protected, Extended CMR, RS-485/RS-422
Transceivers with Cable Invert
ISL31483E, ISL31485E
Features
The ISL31483E and ISL31485E are fault protected, 5V powered
differential transceivers that exceed the RS-485 and RS-422
standards for balanced communication. The RS-485 transceiver
pins (driver outputs and receiver inputs) are fault protected up to
±60V. Additionally, the extended common mode range allows
these transceivers to operate in environments with common mode
voltages up to ±25V (>2x the RS-485 requirement), making this
fault protected RS-485 family one of the most robust on the
market.
• Fault protected RS-485 bus pins . . . . . . . . . . . . . . up to ±60V
• Extended common mode range. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ±25V
More than twice the range required for RS-485
• Cable invert pins
corrects for reversed cable connections while maintaining Rx
full fail-safe functionality
• Full fail-safe (open, short, terminated) RS-485 receivers
• 1/4 unit load (UL) for up to 128 devices on the bus
Transmitters deliver an exceptional 2.5V (typical) differential
output voltage into the RS-485 specified 54Ω load. This yields
better noise immunity than standard RS-485 ICs, or allows up to
six 120Ω terminations in star network topologies.
• High Rx I for opto-couplers in isolated designs
OL
• Hot plug circuitry - Tx and Rx outputs remain three-state during
power-up/power-down
• Slew rate limited RS-485 data rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1Mbps
• Low quiescent supply current. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.3mA
• Ultra low shutdown supply current. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10µA
Receiver (Rx) inputs feature a “Full Fail-Safe” design, which
ensures a logic high Rx output if Rx inputs are floating, shorted, or
on a terminated but undriven (idle) bus.
The ISL31483E and ISL31485E include cable invert functions
that reverse the polarity of the Rx and/or Tx bus pins in case the
cable is misconnected. Unlike competing devices, Rx full fail-safe
operation is maintained even when the Rx input polarity is
switched.
Applications
• Utility meters/automated meter reading systems
• High node count RS-485 systems
• PROFIBUS™ and RS-485 based field bus networks and factory
automation
• Security camera networks
• Building lighting and environmental control systems
• Industrial/process control networks
