UM3085E/UM3088E
±15kV ESD-Protected, Slew-Rate-Limited, Fail-Safe,
True RS-485 Transceivers
UM3085E/UM3088E SOP8/DIP8
General Description
The UM3085E, UM3088E are ±15kV ESD-protected, high-speed transceivers for RS-485
communication that contain one driver and one receiver. These devices feature fail-safe circuitry,
which guarantees a logic-high receiver output when the receiver inputs are open, shorted or idle.
This means that the receiver output will be logic high if all transmitters on a terminated bus are
disabled (high impedance). The UM3085E features reduced slew-rate driver that minimizes EMI
and reduces reflections caused by improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free data
transmission up to 500kbps. While partially slew-rate limited UM3088E speeds up to 2.5Mbps.
All devices feature enhanced ESD protection. All transmitter outputs and receiver inputs are
protected to ±15kV using the Human Body Model and IEC61000-4-2, Air-Gap Discharge.
The transceivers typically draw 400μA of supply current when unloaded, or when fully loaded
with the drivers disabled. All devices have a 1/8-unit-load receiver input impedance that allows up
to 256 transceivers on the bus and are intended for half-duplex communications.
