DS1487
Low Power RS-485
1
⁄4Unit Load Multipoint Transceiver
General Description
The DS1487 is a low-power transceiver for RS-485 and
RS-422 communication. The device contains one driver and
one receiver.The drivers slew rate allows for operation up to
2.0 Mbps (see Applications Information section). The transceiver presents
1
⁄4unit loading to the RS-485 bus allowing up
to 128 nodes to be connected together without the use of repeaters.
The transceiver draws 200 µA of supply current when unloaded or fully loaded with the driver disabled and operates
from a single +5V supply.
The driver is short-circuit current limited and is protected
against excessive power dissipation by thermal shutdown
circuitry that places the driver outputs into TRI-STATE
®
(High Impedance state) under fault conditions. The driver
guarantees a minimum of 1.5V differential output voltage
with maximum loading across the common mode range
(V
OD3
).
The receiver has a failsafe feature that guarantees a
logic-high output if the input is open circuit.
The DS1487 is available in surface mount and DIP packages.

Applications Information
The DS1487 is a low power transceiver designed for use in
RS-485 multipoint applications. The DS1487 can transmit
data up to 2.0 Mbps based on a ratio of driver transition time
to the unit interval (bit time) of 10%. This maximum data rate
may be further limited by the interconnecting media. The
DS1487 provides a
1
⁄4unit load to the RS-485 bus across the
common mode range of −7V to +12V.This allows up to 128
transceivers (
1
⁄4unit load) to be connected to the bus. The
DS1487 also guarantees the driver’s output differential voltage into a worst case load that models standard termination
loads and 32 unit loads (=128 DS1487’s) referenced to the
maximum common mode voltage extremes. With a minimum
of 1.5V swing into this load, a 1.3V differential noise margin
is supported along with the standard common mode rejection range of the receivers.

Applications Information (Continued)
Due to the multipoint nature of the bus, contention between
drivers may occur.This will not cause damage to the drivers
since they feature short-circuit protection and also thermal
shutdown protection. Thermal shutdown senses die temperature and puts the driver outputs into TRI-STATE if a fault
condition occurs that causes excessive power dissipation
which can elevate the junction temperature to +150˚C.
A typical multipoint application is shown in the following figure. Note that termination is typically required but is only located at the two ends of the cable (not on every node). Commonly pull up and pull down resistors may be required at one
end of the bus to provide a failsafe bias. These resistors provide a bias to the line when all drivers are in TRI-STATE.See
National Application Note 847 for a complete discussion of
failsafe biasing of differention buses.
