DESCRIPTIO
The LTC®1387 is a low power reconfigurable CMOS bidi-
rectional transceiver. It can be configured as an RS485
differential port or as two RS232 single-ended ports. An
onboard charge pump uses four 0.1µF capacitors to
generate boosted positive and negative supplies, allowing
the RS232 drivers to meet ±5V output swing require-
ments with only a single 5V supply. A shutdown mode
reduces the ICC supply current to 5µA.
The RS232 transceivers are in full compliance with RS232
specification. The RS485 transceiver is in full compliance
with RS485 and RS422 specifications. The RS485 re-
ceiver assumes a known output state when the inputs are
floating or shorted to ground. All interface drivers feature
short-circuit and thermal shutdown protection. An enable
pin allows RS485 driver outputs to be forced into high
impedance which is maintained even when the outputs are
forced beyond supply rails or the power is off. A loop back
mode allows the driver outputs to be connected back to the
receiver inputs for diagnostic self-test.
The LTC1387 is available in 20-pin plastic SSOP and SW
packages.
