The ADM1485 is a differential line transceiver suitable for high
speed bidirectional data communication on multipoint bus trans-
mission lines. It is designed for balanced data transmission and
complies with both RS-485 and RS-422 EIA Standards. 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 ADM1485 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 condi-
tions, 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 ADM1485 driver features high output
impedance when disabled and also 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 ADM1485 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 ADM1485 features extremely fast switching speeds. Minimal
driver propagation delays permit transmission at typical data rates
of 30 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
MSOP packages.

*Stresses
above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause perma-

RO
Receiver Output. When enabled if A > B
by 200 mV, then RO = High. If A < B by
200 mV, then RO = Low.
Receiver Output Enable. A low level
enables the receiver output, RO. A high
level places it in a high impedance state.
Driver Output Enable. A high level enables
the driver differential outputs, A and B. A low
level places it in a high impedance state.
Driver Input. When the driver is enabled,
a logic low on DI forces A low and B high
while a logic high on DI forces A high and
B low.

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
ADM1485 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.
