Figure 9. Typical Application Circuit for the MAX13410E/MAX13411E
transmission line design. In most cases, a single, con-
trolled-impedance cable or trace should be used and
should be properly terminated on both ends with the
characteristic impedance of the cable/trace. RS-485
transceivers should be connected to the cable/ traces
with minimum-length wires to prevent stubs. Star config-
urations and improperly terminated cables can cause
data loss. Refer to the Application Notes section of the
Maxim website or to TIA/EIA publication TSB-89-A for
further information. While proper termination is always
desirable, in some cases, such as when data rates are
very low, it may be desirable and advantageous to not
properly terminate the cables. In such cases, it is up to
the designer to ensure that the improper termination
and resultant reflections (etc.) will not corrupt the data.
Reduced EMI and Reflections
The MAX13410E/MAX13412E/MAX13414E feature
reduced slew-rate drivers that minimize EMI and reduce
reflections caused by improperly terminated cables,
allowing error-free data transmission up to 500kbps.
Low-Power Shutdown Mode
Low-power shutdown mode is initiated in the
MAX13410E/MAX13411E by driving DE low and driving
RE high. In shutdown, the devices draw 65µA (typ) of
supply current.
The devices are guaranteed not to enter shutdown if
DE is low (while RE is high) for less than 50ns. If the
inputs are in this state for at least 700ns, the devices
are guaranteed to enter shutdown.
Enable times t_ZH and t_ZL (see the switching character-
istics table) assume the devices were not in a low-power
shutdown state. Enable times t_ZH(SHDN) and t_ZL(SHDN)
assume the devices were in shutdown state. It takes dri-
vers and receivers longer to become enabled from low-
power shutdown mode (t_ZH(SHDN), t_ZL(SHDN)) than from
driver/receiver disable mode (t_ZH, t_ZL).
Line Length
The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) pub-
lished the document TSB-89-A: Application Guidelines
for TIA/EIA-485-A, which is a good reference for deter-
mining maximum data rate vs. line length.
Isolated RS-485 Interface
An isolated RS-485 interface electrically isolates different
nodes on the bus to protect the bus from problems due
to high common-mode voltages that exceed the RS-485
common-mode voltage range, conductive noise, and
