1 Features
3 Description
•
•
The SN65176B and SN75176B differential bus

and meet ANSI Standards TIA/EIA-422-B and TIA/
EIA-485-A and ITU Recommendations V.11 and X.27.

•
Chemical and gas sensors
Digital signage
HMI (human machine interfaces)
Motor controls: AC induction, brushed and brushless dc, low- and high-voltage, stepper motors,
and permanent magnets
TETRA Base stations
Telecom towers: remote electrical tilt units (ret) and
tower mounted amplifiers (TMA)
Weigh scales
Wireless repeaters
The SN65176B and SN75176B devices combine a
3-state differential line driver and a differential input
line receiver, both of which operate from a single 5V power supply. The driver and receiver have activehigh and active-low enables, respectively, that can
be connected together externally to function as a
direction control. The driver differential outputs and
the receiver differential inputs are connected internally
to form differential input/output (I/O) bus ports that
are designed to offer minimum loading to the bus
when the driver is disabled or VCC = 0. These ports
feature wide positive and negative common-mode
voltage ranges, making the device suitable for partyline applications.
The driver is designed for up to 60 mA of sink
or source current. The driver features positive
and negative current limiting and thermal shutdown
for protection from line-fault conditions. Thermal
shutdown is designed to occur at a junction
temperature of approximately 150°C. The receiver
features a minimum input impedance of 12 kΩ, an
input sensitivity of ±200 mV, and a typical input
hysteresis of 50 mV.

The power-off measurement in ANSI Standard TIA/EIA-422-B applies to disabled outputs only and is not applied to combined inputs
and outputs.
All typical values are at VCC = 5 V and TA = 25°C.
Δ|VOD| and Δ|VOC| are the changes in magnitude of VOD and VOC, respectively, that occur when the input is changed from a high level
to a low level.
The minimum VOD2 with a 100-Ω load is either ½ VOD1 or 2 V, whichever is greater.
See ANSI Standard TIA/EIA-485-A, Figure 3.5, Test Termination Measurement 2.
This applies for both power on and off; refer to ANSI Standard TIA/EIA-485-A for exact conditions. The TIA/EIA-422-B limit does not
apply for a combined driver and receiver terminal.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The SN65176B and SN75176B differential bus transceivers are integrated circuits designed for bidirectional data
communication on multipoint bus transmission lines. They are designed for balanced transmission lines and
meet ANSI Standards TIA/EIA-422-B and TIA/EIA-485-A and ITU Recommendations V.11 and X.27.
The SN65176B and SN75176B devices combine a 3-state differential line driver and a differential input line
receiver, both of which operate from a single 5-V power supply. The driver and receiver have active-high and
active-low enables, respectively, that can be connected together externally to function as a direction control.
The driver differential outputs and the receiver differential inputs are connected internally to form differential
input/output (I/O) bus ports that are designed to offer minimum loading to the bus when the driver is disabled
or VCC = 0. These ports feature wide positive and negative common-mode voltage ranges, making the device
suitable for party-line applications.
The driver is designed for up to 60 mA of sink or source current. The driver features positive and negative
current limiting and thermal shutdown for protection from line-fault conditions. Thermal shutdown is designed to
occur at a junction temperature of approximately 150°C. The receiver features a minimum input impedance of 12
kΩ, an input sensitivity of ±200 mV, and a typical input hysteresis of 50 mV.
The SN65176B and SN75176B devices can be used in transmission-line applications employing the SN75172
and SN75174 quadruple differential line drivers and SN75173 and SN75175 quadruple differential line receivers.

Both the driver and receiver can be individually enabled or disabled in any combination. DE and RE can be
connected together for a single port direction control bit.
7.4.2 Device Unpowered
The driver differential outputs and the receiver differential inputs are connected internally to form differential
input/output (I/O) bus ports that are designed to offer minimum loading to the bus when the driver is disabled or
VCC = 0.

8 Application and Implementation
Note
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification,
and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for
determining suitability of components for their purposes, as well as validating and testing their design
implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The device can be used in RS-485 and RS-422 physical layer communications.

Transceivers
The line should be terminated at both ends in its characteristic impedance ®T = ZO). Stub lengths off the main line should be kept as
short as possible.

5-V power source
RS-485 bus operating at 10 Mbps or less
Connector that ensures the correct polarity for port pins
External fail safe implementation
8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
•
•

Place the device close to bus connector to keep traces (stub) short to prevent adding reflections to the bus
line
If desired, add external fail-safe biasing to ensure +200 mV on the A-B port.

All trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
11.3 Electrostatic Discharge Caution
This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled
with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may
be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published
specifications.
