3 Description
THVD1500 is a robust half-duplex RS-485 transceiver
for industrial applications. The bus pins are immune
to high levels of IEC Contact Discharge ESD events
eliminating need of additional system level protection
components.
The device operates from a single 5-V supply. The
wide common-mode voltage range and low input
leakage on bus pins make THVD1500 suitable for
multi-point applications over long cable runs.
THVD1500 is available in industry standard 8-pin
SOIC package for drop-in compatibility. The device is
characterized from –40°C to 125°C.

8.3 Feature Description
Internal ESD protection circuits protect the transceiver against Electrostatic Discharges (ESD) according to IEC
61000-4-2 of up to ±8 kV (Contact Discharge), ±10 kV (Air Gap Discharge) and against electrical fast transients
(EFT) according to IEC 61000-4-4 of up to ±2 kV.
The THVD1500 provides internal biasing of the receiver input thresholds in combination with large inputthreshold hysteresis. With a positive input threshold of VIT+ = –50 mV and an input hysteresis of VHYS = 50 mV,
the receiver output remains logic high under a bus-idle or bus-short conditions without the need for external
failsafe biasing resistors. Device operation is specified over a wide temperature range from –40°C to 125°C.
8.4 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).

9 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. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
The THVD1500 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.
9.2 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.

9.2.1 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.
9.2.1.1 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%.

Typical Application (continued)
9.2.1.2 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
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
(1)
9.2.1.3 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 THVD1500 consists of 1/8 UL
transceivers, connecting up to 256 receivers to the bus is possible.
9.2.1.4 Receiver Failsafe
The differential receivers of the THVD1500 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 will output 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. In order 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 Electrical Characteristics table,
differential signals more negative than –200 mV will always cause a low receiver output, and differential signals
more positive than 200 mV will always cause a high receiver output.
When the differential input signal is close to zero, it is still above the VIT+ threshold, and the receiver output will
be high. Only when the differential input is more than VHYS below VIT+ will 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+.

9.2.1.5 Transient Protection
The bus pins of the THVD1500 transceiver family include on-chip ESD protection against ±16-kV HBM and ±8kV 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 20 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 automations.

Typical Application (continued)
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 21 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.

10 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.

11 Layout
11.1 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 bypass 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 bypass capacitors and protection devices to
minimize effective via inductance.
6. Use 1-kΩ to 10-kΩ pullup and pulldown resistors for enable lines to limit noise currents in theses 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.
