Operation outside the Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent device damage. Absolute maximum ratings do not imply
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those listed under Recommended Operating Conditions.
If briefly operating outside the Recommended Operating Conditions but within the Absolute Maximum Ratings, the device may not
sustain damage, but it may not be fully functional. Operating the device in this manner may affect device reliability, functionality,
performance, and shorten the device lifetime.

The algebraic convention in which the least positive (most negative) limit is designated as minimum is used in this data sheet.
Operation is specified for internal (junction) temperatures up to 150°C. Self-heating due to internal power dissipation should be
considered for each application. Maximum junction temperature is internally limited by the thermal shut-down (TSD) circuit which
disables the driver outputs when the junction temperature reaches 170°C.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The THVD1400 is a low-power, half-duplex RS-485 transceiver suitable for data transmission up to 500 kbps.

7.3 Feature Description
Internal ESD protection circuits protect the transceiver against Electrostatic Discharges (ESD) according to IEC
61000-4-2 of up to ±12 kV (Contact Discharge), ±15 kV (Air Gap Discharge) and against electrical fast transients
(EFT) according to IEC 61000-4-4 of up to ±4 kV.
7.4 Device Functional Modes
When the driver enable pin, DE, is logic high, the differential outputs A and B follow the logic states at data input
D. A logic high at D causes A to turn high and B to turn low. In this case, the differential output voltage defined
as VOD = VA – VB is positive. When D is low, the output states reverse, B turns high, A becomes low, and VOD is
negative.
When DE is low, both outputs turn high-impedance. In this condition, the logic state at D is irrelevant. The DE
pin has an internal pull-down resistor to ground; thus, when left open, the driver is disabled (high-impedance) by
default. The D pin has an internal pull-up resistor to VCC, thus, when left open while the driver is enabled, output
A turns high and B turns low.

When the receiver enable pin, RE, is logic low, the receiver is enabled. When the differential input voltage
defined as VID = VA – VB is positive and higher than the positive input threshold, VIT+, the receiver output, R,
turns high. When VID is negative and lower than the negative input threshold, VIT-, the receiver output, R, turns
low. If VID is between VIT+ and VIT- the output is indeterminate.
When RE is logic high or left open, the receiver output is high-impedance and the magnitude and polarity of VID
are irrelevant. Internal biasing of the receiver inputs causes the output to go failsafe-high when the transceiver is
disconnected from the bus (open-circuit), the bus lines are shorted (short-circuit), or the bus is not actively driven
(idle bus).

8 Application Information Disclaimer
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 THVD1400 is a half-duplex RS-485 transceiver commonly used for asynchronous data transmissions. The
driver and receiver enable pins allow for the configuration of different operating modes.
8.2 Typical Application
An RS-485 bus consists of multiple transceivers connecting in parallel to a bus cable. To eliminate line
reflections, each cable end is terminated with a termination resistor, RT, whose value matches the characteristic
impedance, Z0, of the cable. This method, known as parallel termination, allows for higher data rates over longer
cable length.

8.2.1 Design Requirements
RS-485 is a robust electrical standard suitable for long-distance networking that may be used in a wide range of
applications with varying requirements, such as distance, data rate, and number of nodes.
8.2.1.1 Data Rate and Bus Length
There is an inverse relationship between data rate and cable length, which means the higher the data rate, the
shorter the cable length; and conversely, the lower the data rate, the longer the cable length. While most RS-485
systems use data rates between 10 kbps and 100 kbps, some applications require data rates up to 300 kbps at
distances of 4000 feet and longer. Longer distances are possible by allowing for small signal jitter of up to 5 or
10%.

SLLSF78B – DECEMBER 2020 – REVISED OCTOBER 2021
8.2.1.2 Stub Length
When connecting a node to the bus, the distance between the transceiver inputs and the cable trunk, known as
the stub, should be as short as possible. Stubs present a non-terminated piece of bus line which can introduce
reflections as the length of the stub increases. As a general guideline, the electrical length, or round-trip delay, of
a stub should be less than one-tenth of the rise time of the driver, thus giving a maximum physical stub length as
shown in Equation 1.
L(STUB) ≤ 0.1 × tr × v × c
(1)
where
•
•
•
tr is the 10/90 rise time of the driver
c is the speed of light (3 × 108 m/s)
v is the signal velocity of the cable or trace as a factor of c
8.2.1.3 Bus Loading
The RS-485 standard specifies that a compliant driver must be able to driver 32 unit loads (UL), where 1
unit load represents a load impedance of approximately 12 kΩ. Because the THVD1400 consists of 1/8 UL
transceivers, connecting up to 256 receivers to the bus is possible.
8.2.1.4 Receiver Failsafe
The differential receivers of the THVD1400 are failsafe to invalid bus states caused by the following:
• Open bus conditions, such as a disconnected connector
• Shorted bus conditions, such as cable damage shorting the twisted-pair together
• Idle bus conditions that occur when no driver on the bus is actively driving
In any of these cases, the differential receiver outputs a failsafe logic high state so that the output of the receiver
is not indeterminate.
Receiver failsafe is accomplished by offsetting the receiver thresholds such that the input indeterminate range
does not include zero volts differential. To comply with the RS-422 and RS-485 standards, the receiver output
must output a high when the differential input VID is more positive than 200 mV, and must output a low when
VID is more negative than –200 mV. The receiver parameters which determine the failsafe performance are VIT+,
VIT–, and VHYS (the separation between VIT+ and VIT–). As shown in the Receiver Function Table, differential
signals more negative than –200 mV always causes a low receiver output, and differential signals more positive
than 200 mV always causes a high receiver output.
When the differential input signal is close to zero, it is still above the VIT+ threshold, and the receiver output is
high. Only when the differential input is more than VHYS below VIT+ does the receiver output transition to a low
state. Therefore, the noise immunity of the receiver inputs during a bus fault conditions includes the receiver
hysteresis value, VHYS, as well as the value of VIT+.

8.2.1.5 Transient Protection
The bus pins of the THVD1400 transceiver family include on-chip ESD protection against ±16-kV HBM and
±12-kV IEC 61000-4-2 contact discharge. The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) ESD test is far
more severe than the HBM ESD test. The 50% higher charge capacitance, C(S), and 78% lower discharge
resistance, R(D), of the IEC model produce significantly higher discharge currents than the HBM model.

The on-chip implementation of IEC ESD protection significantly increases the robustness of equipment.
Common discharge events occur because of human contact with connectors and cables. Designers may choose
to implement protection against longer duration transients, typically referred to as surge transients.
EFTs are generally caused by relay-contact bounce or the interruption of inductive loads. Surge transients
often result from lightning strikes (direct strike or an indirect strike which induce voltages and currents), or
the switching of power systems, including load changes and short circuit switching. These transients are often
encountered in industrial environments, such as factory automation and power-grid systems.
Figure 8-3 compares the pulse-power of the EFT and surge transients with the power caused by an IEC ESD
transient. The left hand diagram shows the relative pulse-power for a 0.5-kV surge transient and 4-kV EFT
transient, both of which dwarf the 10-kV ESD transient visible in the lower-left corner. 500-V surge transients are
representative of events that may occur in factory environments in industrial and process automation.

In the event of surge transients, high-energy content is characterized by long pulse duration and slow decaying
pulse power. The electrical energy of a transient that is dumped into the internal protection cells of a transceiver
is converted into thermal energy, which heats and destroys the protection cells, thus destroying the transceiver.
Figure 8-4 shows the large differences in transient energies for single ESD, EFT, surge transients, and an EFT
pulse train that is commonly applied during compliance testing.

9 Power Supply Recommendations
To ensure reliable operation at all data rates and supply voltages, each supply should be decoupled with a 100
nF ceramic capacitor located as close to the supply pins as possible. This helps to reduce supply voltage ripple
present on the outputs of switched-mode power supplies and also helps to compensate for the resistance and
inductance of the PCB power planes.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
Robust and reliable bus node design often requires the use of external transient protection devices in order
to protect against surge transients that may occur in industrial environments. Since these transients have a
wide frequency bandwidth (from approximately 3 MHz to 300 MHz), high-frequency layout techniques should be
applied during PCB design.
1. Place the protection circuitry close to the bus connector to prevent noise transients from propagating across
the board.
2. Use VCC and ground planes to provide low inductance. Note that high-frequency currents tend to follow the
path of least impedance and not the path of least resistance.
3. Design the protection components into the direction of the signal path. Do not force the transient currents to
divert from the signal path to reach the protection device.
4. Apply 100-nF to 220-nF decoupling capacitors as close as possible to the VCC pins of transceiver, UART
and/or controller ICs on the board.
5. Use at least two vias for VCC and ground connections of decoupling capacitors and protection devices to
minimize effective via inductance.
6. Use 1-kΩ to 10-kΩ pull-up and pull-down resistors for enable lines to limit noise currents in these lines during
transient events.
7. Insert pulse-proof resistors into the A and B bus lines if the TVS clamping voltage is higher than the specified
maximum voltage of the transceiver bus pins. These resistors limit the residual clamping current into the
transceiver and prevent it from latching up.
8. While pure TVS protection is sufficient for surge transients up to 1 kV, higher transients require metal-oxide
varistors (MOVs) which reduce the transients to a few hundred volts of clamping voltage, and transient
blocking units (TBUs) that limit transient current to less than 1 mA.
