DS96176
RS-485/RS-422 Differential Bus Transceiver
General Description
The DS96176 Differential Bus Transceiverisamonolithicintegrated circuit designed for bidirectional data communication on balanced multipoint bus transmission lines. The
transceiver meets EIA Standard RS-485 as well as
RS-422A.
The DS96176combinesa TRI-STATE
and a differential input line receiver, both of which operate
from a single 5.0V power supply. The driver and receiver
have an active Enable that can be externally connected to
function as a direction control. The driver differential outputs
and the receiver differential inputs are internally connected
to form differential input/output (I/O) bus ports that are designed to offer minimum loading to the bus whenever the
driver is disabled or when V
wide positive and negative common mode voltage ranges,
making the device suitable for multipoint applications in
noisy environments.
The driver is designed to handle loads up to 60 mAof sink or
source current. The driver features positive and negative
current-limiting and thermal shutdown for protection from line
fault conditions. Thermal shutdown is designed to occur at
junction temperature of approximately 160˚C. The receiver
features a typical input impedance of 15 kΩ, an input sensi-
±
tivity of
200 mV, and a typical input hysteresis of 50 mV.

The DS96176 can be used in transmission line applications
employing the DS96172 and the DS96174 quad differential
line drivers and the DS96173 and DS96175 quad differential
line receivers.

Note 2: “Absolute Maximum Ratings” are those values beyond which the safety of the device cannot be guaranteed. They are not meant to imply that the devices
should be operated at these limits. The tables of “Electrical Characteristics” provide conditions for actual operation.
Note 3: Unless otherwise specified min/max limits apply across the 0˚C to +70˚C range for the DS96176. All typicals are given for V
Note 4: Allcurrents into the device pins are positive; all currents out of the device pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to ground unless otherwise specified.

Note 7: The algebraic convention, where the less positive (more negative) limit is designated minimum, is used in this data sheet for common mode input voltage
and threshold voltage levels only.
Note 8: Hysteresis is the difference between the positive-going input threshold voltage V
