16kV ESD Protected, +125°C, 3.0V to 5.5V, TDFN
Packaged, Low Power RS-485/RS-422 Transmitter
ISL3298EMRTEP
Features
The Intersil ISL3298EMRTEP is a ±16.5kV HBM ESD Protected
(7kV IEC61000 contact), 3.0V to 5.5V powered, single
transmitter for balanced communication using the RS-485 and
RS-422 standards. This driver has very low bus currents (±40mA),
so it presents less than a “1/8 unit load” to the RS-485 bus. This
allows more than 256 transmitters on the network without
violating the RS-485 specification’s 32 unit load maximum, and
without using repeaters.
• Specifications per DLA VID V62/10602
• Full Mil-Temp Electrical Performance from -55°C to +125°C
• Controlled Baseline with One Wafer Fabrication Site and One
Assembly/Test Site
• Full Homogeneous Lot Processing in Wafer Fab
• No Combination of Wafer Fabrication Lots in Assembly
• Full Traceability Through Assembly and Test by Date/Trace
Code Assignment
Hot Plug circuitry ensures that the Tx outputs remain in a high
impedance state while the power supply stabilizes.
• Enhanced Process Change Notification
• Enhanced Obsolescence Management
The driver on the ISL3298EMRTEP is not limited, so it can achieve a
16Mbps data rate and is offered in the -55°C to +125°C
temperature range.
• Eliminates Need for Up-Screening a COTS Component
• High ESD Protection on RS-485 Outputs . . . . ±16.5kV HBM
