Features
• Fault Protected RS-485 Bus Pins. . . . . . Up to ±60V
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 protected against faults
up to ±60V. Additionally, the extended common mode
range allows these transceivers to operate in
• Extended Common Mode Range . . . . . . . . . . .±25V
More than Twice the Range Required for RS-485
• 1/4 Unit Load for up to 128 Devices on the Bus
• High Transient Overvoltage Tolerance. . . . . . .±80V
environments with common mode voltages up to ±25V
(>2x the RS-485 requirement), making this RS-485
family one of the most robust on the market.
• Full Fail-safe (Open, Short, Terminated) RS-485
Receivers
• High Rx I
for Opto-Couplers in Isolated Designs
OL
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.
• Hot Plug Circuitry - Tx and Rx Outputs Remain
Three-State During Power-up/Power-down
• Choice of RS-485 Data Rates . . .250kbps to 15Mbps
• Low Quiescent Supply Current . . . . . . . . . . 2.3mA
• Ultra Low Shutdown Supply Current . . . . . . . . 10μA
• Pb-Free (RoHS Compliant)
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. Rx outputs have high drive levels - typically 15mA
