HI-8597
3.3V Single-Rail ARINC 429 Differential Line Driver
with Integrated DO-160G Level 3 Lightning Protection
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The HI-8597 is a 3.3V single supply ARINC 429 line driver
with built-in lightning protection. The internal lightning
protection circuitry allows compliance with RTCA/DO-
160G, Section 22 Level 3 Pin Injection Test Waveform
Set A (3 & 4), Set B (3 & 5A) and Set Z (3 & 5B) without
the use of any external components, an industry first.
Pin surge levels for Level 3 are summarized as follows:

An internal 37.5 Ohm resistor on each output enables
direct connection to the ARINC 429 bus.
In addition, the device includes a dual polarity voltage
doubler, allowing it to operate from a single +3.3V supply
using only four external capacitors.
Other features include high-impedance outputs (tri-
state) when both data inputs are taken high, allowing
multiple line drivers to be connected to a common bus.
Bus pins feature built-in 8kV ESD input protection (HBM),
with 6kV capability on all other pins. All logic inputs are
5V or 3.3V compatible.
The HI-8597 line driver is intended for use where logic
signals must be converted to ARINC 429 levels such as
when using an FPGA or the HI-3586 ARINC 429 protocol
IC. The single supply operation and internal lightning
protection circuitry enable huge board space saving,
making HI-8597 the most compact, cost effective ARINC
429 line driver on the market today.
The part is available in Industrial -40^oC to +85^oC, or
Extended, -55^oC to +125^oC temperature ranges. Optional
burn-in is available on the extended temperature range.
