ISL3293E, ISL3294E, ISL3295E, ISL3296E, ISL3297E, ISL3298E (R) Data Sheet September 19, 2007 16.5kV ESD Protected, +125C, 3.0V to 5.5V, SOT-23/TDFN Packaged, Low Power, RS-485/RS-422 Transmitters The Intersil ISL3293E, ISL3294E, ISL3295E, ISL3296E, ISL3297E, ISL3298E are 16.5kV HBM ESD Protected (7kV IEC61000 contact), 3.0V to 5.5V powered, single transmitters for balanced communication using the RS-485 and RS-422 standards. These drivers have very low bus currents (40mA), so they present less than a "1/8 unit load" to the RS-485 bus. This allows more than 256 transmitters on the network without violating the RS-485 specification's 32 unit load maximum, and without using repeaters. Hot Plug circuitry ensures that the Tx outputs remain in a high impedance state while the power supply stabilizes. The ISL3293E, ISL3294E, ISL3296E, ISL3297E utilize slew rate limited drivers which reduce EMI, and minimize reflections from improperly terminated transmission lines, or from unterminated stubs in multidrop and multipoint applications. Drivers on the ISL3295E and ISL3298E are not limited, so they can achieve the 20Mbps data rate. All versions are offered in Industrial and Extended Industrial (-40C to +125C) temperature ranges. A 26% smaller footprint is available with the ISL3296E, ISL3297E, ISL3298E's TDFN package. These devices also feature a logic supply pin (VL) that sets the switching points of the DE and DI inputs to be compatible with a lower supply voltage in mixed voltage systems. For companion single RS-485 receivers in micro packages, please see the ISL3280E, ISL3281E, ISL3282E, ISL3283E, ISL3284E data sheet.

All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to device ground unless otherwise specified. 8. Applies to peak current. See "Typical Performance Curves" on page 12 for more information. 9. tSKPP is the magnitude of the difference in propagation delays of the specified terminals of two units tested with identical test conditions (VCC, temperature, etc.). 10. If the driver enable function isn't needed, connect DE to VCC (or VL) through a 1k to 3k resistor. 11. Parts are 100% tested at +25C. Over-temperature limits established by characterization and are not production tested. 12. Due to the high short circuit current at VCC > 3.6V, the outputs must not be shorted outside the range of GND to VCC or damage may occur. To prevent excessive power dissipation that may damage the output, the short circuit current should be limited to 300mA during testing. It is best to use an external resistor for this purpose, since the current limiting on the VO supply may respond too slowly to protect the output. 13. Typicals are measured at VCC = 3.3V for parameters specified with 3V VCC 3.6V, and are measured at VCC = 5V for parameters specified with 4.5V VCC 5.5V. If VCC isn't specified, then a single "TYP" entry applies to both VCC = 3.3V and 5V, and two entries separated by a comma refer to VCC = 3.3V and 5V, respectively.

RS-422 is a subset of RS-485, so RS-485 transmitters and receivers are also RS-422 compliant. RS-422 is a point-to-multipoint (multidrop) standard, which allows only one driver and up to 10 (assuming one unit load devices) receivers on each bus. RS-485 is a true multipoint standard, which allows up to 32 one unit load devices (any combination of drivers and receivers) on each bus. To allow for multipoint operation, the RS-485 specification requires that drivers must handle bus contention without sustaining any damage. VCC = +3.3V VCC = +2V VIH 2V DI DE GND VOH 2V VIH 2V VOH 2V ISL3293E Driver Features All drivers are tri-statable via the active high DE input. If the Tx enable function isn't needed, tie DE to VCC (or VL) through a 1k to 3k resistor. The 250kbps and 500kbps driver outputs are slew rate limited to minimize EMI, and to reduce reflections in unterminated or improperly terminated networks. Outputs of the ISL3295E and ISL3298E drivers are not limited, so faster output transition times allow data rates of at least 20Mbps. Wide Supply Range The ISL3293E through ISL3298E are optimized for 3.3V operation, but can be operated with supply voltages as high as 5.5V. These devices meet the RS-422 and RS-485 specifications for supply voltages less than 4V, and are RS-422 and RS-485 compatible for supplies greater than 4V. Operation at +125C requires VCC 3.6V, while 5V operation requires adding output current limiting resistors (as described in the "Driver Overload Protection" on page 11) if output short circuits (e.g., from bus contention) are a possibility. 5.5V Tolerant Logic Pins GND VCC = +2V VL DI DE GND These RS-485/RS-422 drivers are differential output devices that delivers at least 1.5V across a 54 load (RS-485), and at least 2V across a 100 load (RS-422). The drivers feature low propagation delay skew to maximize bit width, and to minimize EMI. DEN UART/PROCESSOR VCC = +3.3V Another important advantage of RS-485 is the extended common mode range (CMR), which specifies that the driver outputs and receiver inputs withstand signals that range from +12V to -7V. RS-422 and RS-485 are intended for runs as long as 4000', so the wide CMR is necessary to handle ground potential differences, as well as voltages induced in the cable by external fields.

USING VL PIN TO ADJUST LOGIC LEVELS Logic Supply (VL Pin, ISL3296E through ISL3298E) Note: Power-up VCC before powering up the VL supply. The ISL3296E through ISL3298E include a VL pin that powers the logic inputs (DI and DE). These pins interface with "logic" devices such as UARTs, ASICs, and controllers, and today most of these devices use power supplies significantly lower than 3.3V. Thus, the logic device's low VOH might not exceed the VIH of a 3.3V or 5V powered DI or DE input. Connecting the VL pin to the power supply of the logic device (as shown in Figure 5) reduces the DI and DE input switching points to values compatible with the logic device's output levels. Tailoring the logic pin input switching points and output levels to the supply voltage of the UART, ASIC, or controller eliminates the need for a level shifter/translator between the two ICs. VL can be anywhere from VCC down to 1.35V, but the input switching points may not provide enough noise margin, and 20Mbps data rates may not be achievable, when VL < 1.5V. Table 2 indicates typical VIH and VIL values for various VL settings so the user can ascertain whether or not a particular VL voltage meets his needs. Logic input pins (DI, DE) contain no ESD nor parasitic diodes to VCC (nor to VL), so they withstand input voltages exceeding 5.5V regardless of the VCC and VL voltages. 10 FN6544.0 September 19, 2007 ISL3293E, ISL3294E, ISL3295E, ISL3296E, ISL3297E, ISL3298E TABLE 2. VIH AND VIL vs VL FOR VCC = 3.3V OR 5V VL (V) VIH (V) VIL (V) 1.35 0.7 0.4 1.5 0.8 0.5 1.8 0.9 0.7 2.3 1.1 1.0 2.7 1.3 1.1 3.3 1.5 1.4 5.0 (i.e., VCC) 2.7 2.3 The VL supply current (IL) is typically much less than 20A, as shown in Figure 9, when DE and DI are above/below VIH/VIL. Hot Plug Function When a piece of equipment powers-up, there is a period of time where the processor or ASIC driving the RS-485 control line (DE) is unable to ensure that the RS-485 Tx outputs are kept disabled. If the equipment is connected to the bus, a driver activating prematurely during power up may crash the bus. To avoid this scenario, the ISL329xE family incorporates a "Hot Plug" function. During power-up, circuitry monitoring VCC ensures that the Tx outputs remain disabled for a period of time, regardless of the state of DE. This gives the processor/ASIC a chance to stabilize and drive the RS-485 control lines to the proper states. ESD Protection All pins on these devices include class 3 (8kV) Human Body Model (HBM) ESD protection structures, but the RS-485 pins (driver outputs) incorporate advanced structures allowing them to survive ESD events in excess of 16.5kV HBM and 7kV to the IEC61000 contact test method. The RS-485 pins are particularly vulnerable to ESD damage because they typically connect to an exposed port on the exterior of the finished product. Simply touching the port pins, or connecting a cable, can cause an ESD event that might destroy unprotected ICs. These new ESD structures protect the device whether or not it is powered up, and without degrading the RS-485 common mode range of -7V to +12V. This built-in ESD protection eliminates the need for board level protection structures (e.g., transient suppression diodes), and the associated, undesirable capacitive load they present. Data Rate, Cables, and Terminations RS-485/RS-422 are intended for network lengths up to 4000', but the maximum system data rate decreases as the transmission length increases. Devices operating at 20Mbps are limited to lengths less than 100', while the 250kbps versions can operate at full data rates with lengths of several 1000'. 11 Twisted pair is the cable of choice for RS-485/RS-422 networks. Twisted pair cables tend to pick up noise and other electromagnetically induced voltages as common mode signals, which are effectively rejected by the differential receivers in these ICs. Proper termination is imperative, when using the 20Mbps devices, to minimize reflections. Short networks using the 250kbps versions need not be terminated, but, terminations are recommended unless power dissipation is an overriding concern. In point-to-point, or point-to-multipoint (single driver on bus) networks, the main cable should be terminated in its characteristic impedance (typically 120) at the end farthest from the driver. In multi-receiver applications, stubs connecting receivers to the main cable should be kept as short as possible. Multipoint (multi-driver) systems require that the main cable be terminated in its characteristic impedance at both ends. Stubs connecting a transmitter or receiver to the main cable should be kept as short as possible. Driver Overload Protection As stated previously, the RS-485 specification requires that drivers survive worst case bus contentions undamaged. These drivers meet this requirement, for VCC 3.6V, via driver output short circuit current limits, and on-chip thermal shutdown circuitry. The driver output stages incorporate short circuit current limiting circuitry which ensures that the output current never exceeds the RS-485 specification, for VCC 3.6V, even at the common mode voltage range extremes. Additionally, these devices utilize a foldback circuit which reduces the short circuit current, and thus the power dissipation, whenever the contending voltage exceeds either VCC or GND. In the event of a major short circuit condition, devices also include a thermal shutdown feature that disables the drivers whenever the die temperature becomes excessive. This eliminates the power dissipation, allowing the die to cool. The drivers automatically re-enable after the die temperature drops about +20C. If the contention persists, the thermal shutdown/re-enable cycle repeats until the fault is cleared. At VCC > 3.6V, the instantaneous short circuit current is high enough that output stage damage may occur during short circuit conditions to voltages outside of GND to VCC, before the short circuit limiting and thermal shutdown activate. For VCC = 5V operation, if output short circuits are a possibility (e.g., due to bus contention), it is recommended that a 5 resistor be inserted in series with each output. This resistor limits the instantaneous current below levels that can cause damage. The driver VOD at VCC = 5V is so large that this small added resistance has little impact. FN6544.0 September 19, 2007 ISL3293E, ISL3294E, ISL3295E, ISL3296E, ISL3297E, ISL3298E High Temperature Operation Low Power Shutdown Mode Due to power dissipation and instantaneous output short circuit current levels at VCC = 5V, these transmitters may not be operated at +125C with VCC > 3.6V. These BiCMOS transmitters all use a fraction of the power required by their bipolar counterparts, but they also include a shutdown feature that reduces the already low quiescent ICC to a 1A trickle. These devices enter shutdown whenever the driver disables (DE = GND). At VCC = 3.6V, even the SOT-23 versions may be operated at +125C, while driving a 100', double terminated, CAT 5 cable at 20Mbps, without triggering the thermal SHDN circuit.
