Data Interfaces
_________________General Description
The MAX1480EA/MAX1480EC/MAX1490EA/MAX1490EB
are complete, electrically isolated, RS-485/RS-422 data
communications interface solutions in a hybrid microcir-
cuit. The RS-485/RS-422 I/O pins are protected against
±15kV electrostatic discharge (ESD) shocks, without
latchup. Transceivers, optocouplers, and a transformer
provide a complete interface in a standard DIP package.
A single +5V supply on the logic side powers both sides
of the interface.
The MAX1480EC/MAX1490EB feature reduced-slew-rate
drivers that minimize EMI and reduce reflections caused
by improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free data
transmission at data rates up to 160kbps. The
MAX1480EA/MAX1490EA driver slew rate is not limited,
allowing transmission rates up to 2.5Mbps. The
MAX1480EA/MAX1480EC are designed for half-duplex
communication, while the MAX1490EA/MAX1490EB fea-
ture full-duplex communication.
Drivers are short-circuit current limited and protected
against excessive power dissipation by thermal shut-
down circuitry that places the driver outputs into a high-
impedance state. The receiver input has a fail-safe
feature that guarantees a known output (RO low for the
MAX1480EA/MAX1480EC, RO high for the MAX1490EA/
MAX1490EB) if the input is open circuit.
The MAX1480EA/MAX1480EC/MAX1490EA/MAX1490EB
withstand 1260VRMS (1min) or 1520VRMS (1s). Their iso-
lated outputs meet all RS-485/RS-422 specifications. The
MAX1480EA/MAX1480EC are available in a 28-pin DIP
package, and the MAX1490EA/MAX1490EB are available
in a 24-pin DIP package.
