DESCRIPTION
The DS485 is a low-power transceiver for RS-485
and RS-422 communication. The device contains one
driver and one receiver. The drivers slew rate allows
for operation up to 2.5 Mbps (see Applications
Information section).
The transceiver draws 200 μA of supply current when
unloaded or fully loaded with the driver disabled and
operates from a single +5V supply.
The driver is short-circuit current limited and is
protected against excessive power dissipation by
thermal shutdown circuitry that places the driver
outputs into TRI-STATE (High Impedance state)
under fault conditions. The driver ensures a minimum
of 1.5V differential output voltage with maximum
loading across the common mode range (VOD3).
The receiver has a failsafe feature that ensures a
logic-high output if the input is open circuit.
The DS485 is available in 8-pin SOIC and PDIP
packages and is characterized for Industrial and
Commercial temperature range operation.
