DESCRIPTIO
The LTC^®491 is a low power differential bus/line trans-
ceiver designed for multipoint data transmission standard
RS485 applications with extended common mode range
(12V to –7V). It also meets the requirements of RS422.
The CMOS design offers significant power savings over its
bipolar counterpart without sacrificing ruggedness against
overload or ESD damage.
The driver and receiver feature three-state outputs, with
the driver outputs maintaining high impedance over the
entire common mode range. Excessive power dissipation
caused by bus contention or faults is prevented by a
thermal shutdown circuit which forces the driver outputs
into a high impedance state.
The receiver has a fail safe feature which guarantees a high
output state when the inputs are left open.
Both AC and DC specifications are guaranteed from 0°C to
70°C and 4.75V to 5.25V supply voltage range.
