APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
CMOS Output Driver
The LTC1480 transceiver provides full RS485 compatibil-
ity while operating from a single 3.3V supply. The RS485
specification requires that a transceiver withstand com-
mon-mode voltages of up to 12V or –7V at the RS485 line
connections. Additionally, the transceiver must be im-
mune to both ESD and latch-up, This rules out traditional
CMOS drivers, which include parasitic diodes from their
driver outputs to each supply rail (Figure 9). The LTC1480
uses a proprietary process enhancement which adds a
pair of Schottky diodes to the output stage (Figure 10),
preventing current from flowing when the common-mode
