DESCRIPTION…
The
SP3488
and the
SP3489
are +3.3V low power quad line receivers that meet the
specifications of the RS-485 and RS-422 serial protocols. These devices are pin-to-pin
compatible with Sipex's SP488 and SP489 devices as well as popular industry standards.
The
SP3488
and
SP3489
feature Sipex's BiCMOS process allowing low power operation
without sacrificing performance. The
SP3488
and
SP3489
meet the electrical specifications
of RS-485 and RS-422 serial protocols up to 10Mbps under load. The
SP3488
features a
common receiver enable control. The
SP3489
provides independent receiver enable
controls for each pair of receivers. Both devices feature tri-state outputs and a -7V to +12V
common-mode input range. The receivers have a fail-safe feature which forces a logic "1"
output when receiver inputs are left floating.

The RS-485 standard is ideal for multi-drop
applications or for long distance interfaces.
RS-485 allows up to 32 drivers and 32 receivers
to be connected to a data bus, making it an ideal
choice for multi-drop applications. Since the

cabling can be as long as 4,000 feet, RS-485
transceivers are equipped with a wide (-7V to
+12V) common mode range to accomodate
ground potential differences. Because the
RS-485 protocol is a differential interface, data
is virtually immune to noise in the transmission
line.
Receiver...
The
SP3488
and the
SP3489
receivers have
differential inputs with an input sensitivity
as low as +100mV. Input impedance of the
receivers is typically 15KΩ (12KΩ minimum).
A wide common mode range of -7V to +12V
allows for large ground potential differences
between systems.
The
SP3488
features active HIGH and active
LOW common receiver enable controls. Refer
to
SP3488
Truth Table in
Table 1.
The
SP3489
provides independent, active high receiver
enable controls for each pair of receivers. Refer
to
SP3489
Truth Table in
Table 2.
Both devices
feature tri-state outputs and a -7V to +12V
common-mode input range permitting a +7V
ground difference between devices on the
communication bus. The
SP3488
and the
SP3489
are equipped with a fail-safe feature which forces
a logic HIGH at the receiver output when the
input is left floating. The
SP3488
and
SP3489
receivers meet the electrical specifications of
RS-485 and RS-422 serial protocol data rates up
to 10Mbps under load.
