GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADM485 is a differential line transceiver suitable for high
speed bidirectional data communication on multipoint bus transmission lines. It is designed for balanced data transmission and
complies with EIA Standards RS-485 and RS-422. The part
contains a differential line driver and a differential line receiver.
Both the driver and the receiver may be enabled independently.
When disabled, the outputs are three-stated.
The ADM485 operates from a single 5 V power supply. Excessive
power dissipation caused by bus contention or by output shorting
is prevented by a thermal shutdown circuit. This feature forces
the driver output into a high impedance state if during fault conditions a significant temperature increase is detected in the internal
driver circuitry.
Up to 32 transceivers may be connected simultaneously on a bus,
but only one driver should be enabled at any time. It is important,
therefore, that the remaining disabled drivers do not load the bus.
To ensure this, the ADM485 driver features high output impedance when disabled and when powered down.
This minimizes the loading effect when the transceiver is not being
used. The high impedance driver output is maintained over the
entire common-mode voltage range from –7 V to +12 V.
The receiver contains a fail-safe feature that results in a logic
high output state if the inputs are unconnected (floating).
The ADM485 is fabricated on BiCMOS, an advanced mixed
technology process combining low power CMOS with fast switching
bipolar technology. All inputs and outputs contain protection
against ESD; all driver outputs feature high source and sink current
capability. An epitaxial layer is used to guard against latch-up.
The ADM485 features extremely fast switching speeds. Minimal
driver propagation delays permit transmission at data rates up to
5 Mbps while low skew minimizes EMI interference.
The part is fully specified over the commercial and industrial
temperature range and is available in PDIP, SOIC, and small
footprint MSOP packages.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the
ADM485 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices
subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended
to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
