SP339E RS-232/RS-485/RS-422 TRANSCEIVER WITH INTERNAL TERMINATION OCT 2011 REV. 1.0.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The SP339 is an advanced multiprotocol transceiver supporting RS-232, RS-485, and RS-422 serial standards in a 40 pin QFN package. Integrated cable termination and four configuration modes allow all three protocols to be used interchangeably over a single cable or connector with no additional switching components. Full operation requires only four external charge pump capacitors. The RS-485/422 modes feature one driver and one receiver (1TX/1RX) in both half and full duplex configurations. The RS-232 mode (3TX/5RX) provides full support of all eight signals commonly used with the DB9 RS-232 connector. A dedicated diagnostic loopback mode is also provided. The high speed drivers operate up to 20Mbps in RS485/422 modes, and up to 1Mbps in RS-232 mode. All drivers can be slew limited to 250kbps in any mode to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI). All transmitter outputs and receiver inputs feature robust electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection to ±15kV Human Body Model (HBM) and ±8kV IEC61000-4-2 Contact. Each receiver output has full failsafe protection to avoid system lockup, oscillation, or indeterminate states by defaulting to logic-high output level when the inputs are open, shorted, or terminated but undriven. No external biasing resistors are required. The RS-232 receiver inputs include a 5kΩ pull-down to ground. The RS-485/422 receiver inputs are high impedance (>96kΩ when termination is disabled), allowing up to 256 devices on a single communication bus (1/8th unit load). The SP339E operates from a single power supply, either 3.3V or 5V, with low idle current (2mA typical in all modes). The shutdown mode consumes less than 10µA for low power standby operation.

Integrated cable termination and four configuration modes allow all three protocols to be used interchangeably over a single cable or connector with no additional switching components. The RS485/422 modes feature one driver and one receiver (1TX/1RX) in both half and full duplex configurations. The RS-232 mode (3TX/5RX) provides full support of all eight signals commonly used with the DB9 RS-232 connector. A dedicated mode is also available for diagnostic loopback testing. INTERNALLY SWITCHED CABLE TERMINATION Enabling and disabling the RS-485/422 termination resistor is one of the largest challenges system designers face when sharing a single connector or pair of lines across multiple serial protocols. A termination resistor may be necessary for accurate RS-485/422 communication, but must be removed when the lines are used for RS-232. SP339E provides an elegant solution to this problem by integrating the termination resistor and switching control, and allowing it to be switched in and out of the circuit with a single pin. No external switching components are required. ENHANCED FAILSAFE Ordinary RS-485 differential receivers will be in an indeterminate state whenever the data bus is not being actively driven. The enhanced failsafe feature of the SP339E guarantees a logic-high receiver output when the receiver inputs are open, shorted, or terminated but idle/undriven. The enhanced failsafe interprets 0V differential as a logic high with a minimum 50mV noise margin, while maintaining compliance with the EIA/TIA485 standard of ±200mV. No external biasing resistors are required, further easing the usage of multiple protocols over a single connector. ±15kV ESD PROTECTION ESD protection structures are incorporated on all pins to protect against electrostatic discharges encountered during handling and assembly. The bus pins (driver outputs and receiver inputs) have extra protection structures, which have been tested up to ±15kV without damage. These structures withstand high ESD in all states: normal operation, shutdown and powered down. ESD protection is be tested in various ways. Exar uses the following methods to qualify the protection structures designed into SP339E: ±15kV using the Human Body Model (HBM) ±-8kV using IEC 61000-4-2 Contact Discharge The IEC 61000-4-2 standard is more rigorous than HBM, resulting in lower voltage levels compared with HBM for the same level of ESD protection. Because IEC 61000-4-2 specifies a lower series resistance, the peak current is higher than HBM. The SP339E has passed both HBM and IEC 61000-4-2 testing without damage. ±20V FAULT TOLERANCE All bus pins on the SP339E are protected against direct shorts or long term faults, up to ±20V. This allows the part to interoperate with legacy systems using ±15V RS-232 logic levels without damage or failure. DIAGNOSTIC LOOPBACK MODE The SP339E includes a diagnostic digital loop back mode for system testing as shown in Figure 1. The loopback mode connects the TTL driver inputs to the TTL receiver outputs, bypassing the analog driver and receiver circuitry. The analog/bus pins are internally disconnected in this mode. 19 SP339E RS-232/RS-485/RS-422 TRANSCEIVER WITH INTERNAL TERMINATION REV. 1.0.0 PACKAGE DRAWINGS FIGURE 15.
