DESCRIPTION
The SP3485 is a member in the family of
+3.3V low power half-duplex transceivers
that meet the electrical specications of the
RS-485 and RS-422 serial protocols. This
device is pin-to-pin compatible with the Exar
SP481, SP483 and SP485 devices as well
as popular industry standards. The SP3485
feature Exar's BiCMOS process allowing
low power operation without sacricing
performance.
Driver
The driver outputs of the SP3485 are differential outputs meeting the RS-485 and
RS-422 standards. The typical voltage
output swing with no load will be 0 volts to
+3.3 Volts. With a load of 54Ω across the
differential outputs, the drivers can maintain
greater than 1.5V voltage levels.
The driver of the SP3485 has a driver enable
control line which is active HIGH. A logic
HIGH on DE (pin 3) will enable the differential
driver outputs. A logic LOW on the DE (pin
3) will tri-state the driver outputs.
The driver of the SP3485 operates up to
10Mbps. The 250mA ISC maximum limit
on the driver output allows the SP3485 to
withstand an innite short circuit over the
-7.0V to +12V common mode range without
catastrophic damage to the IC.
Receiver
The SP3485 receiver has differential inputs
with an input sensitivity of ±200mV. Input
impedance of the receiver is typically 15kΩ
(12kΩ minimum). A wide common mode
range of -7V to +12V allows for large ground
potential differences between systems. The
receiver is equipped with a fail-safe feature
that guarantees the receiver output will be
in a HIGH state when the input is left unconnected. The receiver of the SP3485 operates
up to 10Mbps.
The receiver of the SP3485 has an enable
control line which is active LOW. A logic
LOW on RE (pin 2) will enable the differential
receiver. A logic HIGH on RE (pin 2) of the
SP3485 will disable the receiver.
