GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADM3483/ADM3485/ADM3488/ADM3490/ADM3491 are
low power, differential line transceivers designed to operate using a
single 3.3 V power supply. Low power consumption, coupled with a
shutdown mode, makes the ADM3483/ADM3485/ADM3488/
ADM3490/ADM3491 ideal for power-sensitive applications.
The ADM3488/ADM3490/ADM3491 feature full-duplex communication, while the ADM3483/ADM3485 are designed for
half-duplex communication.
The ADM3483/ADM3488 feature slew rate limited drivers that
minimize EMI and reduce reflections caused by improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free data transmission at data rates
up to 250 kbps.
The ADM3485/ADM3490/ADM3491 transmit at up to 10 Mbps.
The receiver input impedance is 12 kΩ, allowing up to 32 transceivers to be connected on the bus. A thermal shutdown circuit
prevents excessive power dissipation caused by bus contention or
by output shorting. If a significant temperature increase is detected

in the internal driver circuitry during fault conditions, then the
thermal shutdown circuit forces the driver output into a high
impedance state. If the inputs are unconnected (floating), the
receiver contains a fail-safe feature that results in a logic high
output state. The parts are fully specified over the commercial
and industrial temperature ranges. The ADM3483/ADM3485/
ADM3488/ADM3490 are available in 8-lead SOIC_N; the
ADM3491 is available in a 14-lead SOIC_N.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ADM3483/ADM3485/ADM3488/ADM3490/ADM3491 are
low power transceivers for RS-485 and RS-422 communications.
The ADM3483/ADM3488 transmit and receive at data rates up
to 250 kbps; the ADM3485/ADM3490/ADM3491 transmit at up to
10 Mbps. The ADM3488/ADM3490/ADM3491 are full-duplex
transceivers, while the ADM3483/ADM3485 are half-duplex
transceivers. Driver enable (DE) and receiver enable (
RE
) pins
are included on the ADM3483/ADM3485/ADM3491. When
disabled, the driver and receiver outputs are high impedance.

REDUCED EMI AND REFLECTIONS
(ADM3483/ADM3488)
The ADM3483/ADM3488 are slew rate limited transceivers,
minimizing EMI and reducing reflections caused by improperly
terminated cables.
LOW POWER SHUTDOWN MODE
(ADM3483/ADM3485/ADM3491)
A low power shutdown mode is initiated by bringing RE high
and DE low. The devices do not shut down unless both the driver
and receiver are disabled (high impedance). In shutdown mode,
the devices typically draw only 2 nA of supply current. For these
devices, the t

the receiver or driver was disabled, but the part is not shut down.
DRIVER OUTPUT PROTECTION
Two methods are implemented to prevent excessive output current
and power dissipation caused by faults or by bus contention.
Current limit protection on the output stage provides immediate
protection against short circuits over the whole common-mode
voltage range (see the Ty pical Performance C h a r acteristi c s section).
In addition, a thermal shutdown circuit forces the driver outputs
into a high impedance state if the die temperature rises
excessively.
PROPAGATION DELAY
Skew time is the difference between the low-to-high and highto-low propagation delays. Small driver/receiver skew times help
maintain a symmetrical mark-space ratio (50% duty cycle).
The receiver skew time (|t
for ADM3483/ADM3488). The driver skew times are 8 ns for
ADM3485/ADM3490/ADM3491 and typically under 100 ns for
ADM3483/ADM3488.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
The ADM3483/ADM3485/ADM3491 transceivers are designed
for half-duplex bidirectional data communications on multipoint

bus transmission lines, Figure 32 and Figure 33 show typical
network applications circuits. The ADM3488 and the ADM3490
full-duplex transceivers are designed to be used in a daisy-chain
network topology or in a point-to-point application, see Figure 34
and Figure 35. The ADM3491 can be used as line repeat Figure 36.
To minimize reflections, the line must be terminated at both

line must be kept as short as possible. The slew rate limited
ADM3483/ADM3488 are more tolerant of imperfect termination.
