or “-” in the package code indicates RoHS status only. Package drawings may show a different suffix character, but the drawing pertains
to the package regardless of RoHS status.
Package thermal resistances were obtained using the method described in JEDEC specification JESD51-7, using a four-layer board.

Note 1: All devices 100% production tested at TA = +25°C. Specifications over temperature are guaranteed by design.
Note 2: All currents into the device are positive; all currents out of the device are negative. All voltages are referenced to ground,
unless otherwise noted.
Note 3: ΔVOD and ΔVOC are the changes in VOD and VOC, respectively, when the DI input changes state.
Note 4: Capacitive load includes test probe and fixture capacitance.
Note 5: Guaranteed by design; not production tested.
Note 6: The timing parameter refers to the driver or receiver enable delay, when the device has exited the initial hot-swap protect
state and is in normal operating mode.

MAX14782E
500Kbps 3.3V to 5V RS-485/RS-422 Transceiver
with ±35kV HBM ESD Protection
Detailed Description
Hot-Swap Capability
The MAX14782E is a 3.3V to 5V ESD-protected RS-485/
RS-422 transceiver intended for high-speed, half-duplex
communications. Integrated hot-swap functionality eliminates false transitions on the bus during power-up or hot
insertion.
The device features fail-safe receiver inputs guaranteeing
a logic-high receiver output when inputs are shorted or
open. The IC has a 1-unit load receiver input impedance,
allowing up to 32 transceivers on the bus.
True Fail Safe
The MAX14782E guarantees a logic-high receiver output
when the receiver inputs are shorted or open, or when
they are connected to a terminated transmission line with
all drivers disabled. If the differential receiver input voltage
(A–B) is greater than or equal to -10mV, RO is logic-high.
Driver Single-Ended Operation
The A and B outputs can either be used in the standard
differential operating mode, or can be used as singleended outputs. Since the A and B driver outputs swing
rail-to-rail, they can individually be used as standard TTL
logic outputs.
Hot-Swap Inputs
When circuit boards are inserted in a hot or powered
backplane, disturbances on the enable inputs and differential receiver inputs can lead to data errors. Upon
initial circuit board insertion, the processor undergoes its
power-up sequence. During this period, the processor
output drivers are high impedance and are unable to drive
the DE and RE inputs of the MAX14782E to a defined
logic level. Leakage currents up to 10µA from the highimpedance outputs of a controller could cause DE and RE
to drift to an incorrect logic state. Additionally, parasitic
circuit board capacitance could cause coupling of VCC
or GND to DE and RE. These factors could improperly
enable the driver or receiver. The MAX14782E features
integrated hot-swap inputs that help to avoid these potential problems.
When VCC rises, an internal pulldown circuit holds DE
low and RE high. After the initial power-up sequence, the
pulldown circuit becomes transparent, resetting the hotswap-tolerable inputs.
Hot-Swap Input Circuitry
The DE and RE enable inputs feature hot-swap capability. At the input, there are two nMOS devices, M1 and M2
(Figure 9). When VCC ramps from 0V, an internal 10µs
timer turns on M2 and sets the SR latch that also turns

on M1. Transistors M2 (a 500µA current sink) and M1 (a
100µA current sink) pull DE to GND through a 5kΩ (typ)
resistor. M2 is designed to pull DE to the disabled state
against an external parasitic capacitance up to 100pF that
can drive DE high. After 10µs, the timer deactivates M2
while M1 remains on, holding DE low against three-state
leakages that can drive DE high. M1 remains on until an
external source overcomes the required input current.
At this time, the SR latch resets and M1 turns off. When
M1 turns off, DE reverts to a standard, high-impedance
CMOS input. Whenever VCC drops below 1V, the hotswap input is reset.
● ±35kV HBM
A complementary circuit employing two pMOS devices
pulls RE to VCC.
Figure 10 shows the HBM, and Figure 11 shows the current waveform it generates when discharged into a lowimpedance state. This model consists of a 100pF capacitor charged to the ESD voltage of interest, which is then
discharged into the test device through a 1.5kΩ resistor.
±35kV ESD Protection
ESD protection structures are incorporated on all pins
to protect against electrostatic discharges encountered
during handling and assembly. The driver outputs and
receiver inputs of the MAX14782E have extra protection
against static electricity. The ESD structures withstand
high ESD in all states: normal operation, shutdown, and
powered down. After an ESD event, the MAX14782E
keeps working without latch-up or damage.
ESD protection can be tested in various ways. The transmitter outputs and receiver inputs of the MAX14782E are
characterized for protection to the following limits:

ESD Test Conditions
ESD performance depends on a variety of conditions.

setup, test methodology, and test results.
Human Body Model (HBM)
IEC 61000-4-2
The IEC 61000-4-2 standard covers ESD testing and performance of finished equipment. However, it does not specifically refer to integrated circuits. The MAX14782E helps
in designing equipment to meet IEC 61000-4-2 without the
need for additional ESD protection components.
The major difference between tests done using the HBM
and IEC 61000-4-2 is higher peak current in IEC 610004-2 because series resistance is lower in the IEC 610004-2 model. Hence, the ESD withstand voltage measured
to IEC 61000-4-2 is generally lower than that measured
using the HBM.

Applications Information
RE and DE can be connected together and driven simultaneously. The MAX14782E is guaranteed not to enter
shutdown if RE is high and DE is low for less than 50ns.
If the inputs are in this state for at least 800ns (max), the
device is guaranteed to enter shutdown.
Driver Output Protection
Typical Applications
Two mechanisms prevent excessive output current and
power dissipation caused by faults or by bus connection. The first, a current limit on the output stage provides
immediate protection against short circuits over the whole
common-mode voltage range. The second, a thermal-shutdown circuit, forces the driver outputs into a high-impedance state if the die temperature exceeds +160°C (typ).
The MAX14782E transceiver is designed for bidirectional
data communications on multipoint bus transmission
lines. Figure 14 shows a typical network application circuit. To minimize reflections, terminate the line at both
ends with its characteristic impedance and keep stub
lengths off the main line as short as possible.
Low-Power Shutdown Mode
Low-power shutdown mode is initiated by bringing RE
high and DE low. In shutdown, the devices draw less than
10µA of supply current.
