MAX1480A_05

19-0259; Rev 5; 5/05 Complete, Isolated RS-485/RS-422 Data Interface _________________General Description The MAX1480A/MAX1480B/MAX1480C/MAX1490A/ MAX1490B are complete, electrically isolated, RS-485/ RS-422 data-communications interface solutions in a hybrid microcircuit. Transceivers, optocouplers, and a transformer provide a complete interface in a standard DIP package. A single +5V supply on the logic side powers both sides of the interface. The MAX1480B/MAX1480C/MAX1490B feature reducedslew-rate drivers that minimize EMI and reduce reflections caused by improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free data transmission at data rates up to 250kbps. The MAX1480A/MAX1490A driver slew rate is not limited, allowing transmission rates up to 2.5Mbps. The MAX1480A/B/C are designed for half-duplex communication, while the MAX1490A/B feature full-duplex communication. Drivers are short-circuit current limited and protected against excessive power dissipation by thermal shutdown circuitry that places the driver outputs into a highimpedance state. The receiver input has a fail-safe feature that guarantees a known output (RO low for the MAX1480A/B/C, RO high for the MAX1490A/B/C) if the input is open circuit. The MAX1480A/MAX1480B/MAX1480C/MAX1490A/ MAX1490B typically withstand 1600VRMS (1 minute) or 2000VRMS (1 second). Their isolated outputs meet all RS-485/RS-422 specifications. The MAX1480A/B/C are available in a 28-pin DIP package, and the MAX1490A/B are available in a 24-pin DIP package.

Leave these pins unconnected. Logic-Side Ground. Connect to GND2 (pin 12). Frequency Select Input. If FS = VCC_ or is open, switch frequency is high; if FS = GND, switch frequency is low. For optimal performance and minimal supply current, connect FS to VCC_ or leave unconnected. Shutdown Input. Ground for normal operation. When high, the power oscillator is disabled. Driver Input. With DE´ high (MAX1480A/B/C only), a low on DI´ forces output A low and output B high. Similarly, a high on DI´ forces output A high and output B low. Drives internal LED cathode through a resistor (Table 1 of Figure 1 for MAX1480A/B/C, Table 2 of Figure 2 for MAX1490A/B). Driver-Enable Input. The driver outputs, A and B, are enabled by bringing DE´ high. The driver outputs are high impedance when DE´ is low. If the driver outputs are enabled, the device functions as a line driver. While the driver outputs are high impedance, the device functions as a line receiver. Drives internal LED cathode through a resistor (Table 1 of Figure 1). Receiver Output.

Note: For DE´ and DI´ pin descriptions, see Detailed Block Diagram and Typical Application Circuit (Figure 1 for MAX1480A/B/C, Figure 2 for MAX1490A/B). Detailed Description The MAX1480A/MAX1480B/MAX1480C/MAX1490A/ MAX1490B are complete, electrically isolated, RS-485/ RS-422 data-communications interface solutions. Transceivers, optocouplers, a power driver, and a transformer in one standard 28-pin DIP package (24pin for the MAX1490A/B) provide a complete interface. Signals and power are internally transported across the isolation barrier (Figures 1, 2). Power is transferred from the logic side (nonisolated side) to the isolated side of the barrier through a center-tapped transformer. Signals cross the barrier through high-speed optocouplers. A single +5V supply on the logic side powers both sides of the interface. The MAX1480A/B/C offer half-duplex communications while the MAX1490A/B feature full-duplex communication. The functional input/output relationships are shown in Tables 3–6. The MAX1480B/MAX1480C/MAX1490B feature reducedslew-rate drivers that minimize EMI and reduce reflections caused by improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free transmission at data rates up to 250kbps. The MAX1480A/MAX1490A driver slew rate is not limited, allowing transmission rates up to 2.5Mbps. The MAX1480B/MAX1480C/MAX1490B shutdown feature reduces supply current to as low as 0.2µA by using the SD pin (see Low-Power Shutdown Mode section). Use the FS pin to select between high and low switching frequencies for the isolated power driver. The driver switches at the lower frequency 535kHz when FS is low, and at the higher frequency 725kHz when FS is high. The FS pin has a weak internal pull-up that switches the device to the high-frequency mode when FS is left unconnected. With FS high or open, no-load supply current is reduced by approximately 4mA, and by up to 8mA when fully loaded. For optimal performance and minimal supply current, connect FS to VCC_ or leave unconnected. Drivers are short-circuit current limited and are protected against excessive power dissipation by thermal shutdown circuitry that puts the driver outputs into a high-impedance state. The receiver input has a fail-safe feature that guarantees a logic-high RO (logic-low RO) output if the input is open circuit. On the MAX1480A/B/C, the driver outputs are enabled by bringing DE´ high. Driver-enable times are typically 0.2µs for the MAX1480A, 35µs for the MAX1480B, and 0.5µs for the MAX1480C. Allow time for the devices to be enabled before sending data (see the Driver Enable Time vs. Temperature graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics). When enabled, driver outputs function as line drivers. Driver outputs are high impedance when DE´ is low. While outputs are high impedance, they function as line receivers. ______________________________________________________________________________________ 11 Complete, Isolated RS-485/RS-422 Data Interface MAX1480A/B/C, MAX1490A/B VCC3 ISO VCC1 MAX845 Q FS OSC 1.07MHz/ 1.45MHz T F/F D2 Q N ISO DE IN ISO RO DRV SD GND1 RE R N ISO DI IN D A D1 MAX1480A: MAX1487 MAX1480B: MAX487 MAX1480C: MAX487 B ISO COM1 EXTERNAL RS-485/RS-422 WIRING TERMINATING RESISTOR (ONE RESISTOR ON EACH END) 28 AC1 (MAKE NO CONNECTION) 27 AC2 (MAKE NO CONNECTION) 26 ISO VCC1 B 25 24 MAX845 MAX1487 MAX487 ISO RO DRV A R6 R4 SH B SHIELD (OPTIONAL) TWISTED PAIR TO OTHER TRANSCEIVERS RL SHIELD (OPTIONAL) TWISTED PAIR TO OTHER TRANSCEIVERS RL VIN 5V C1 22µF C2 0.1µF VCC1 VCC2 MAX1480A/B/C 1 2 D1 3 D2 4 GND1 5 FS 6 SD 7 VCC3 R1 DI VCC4 DE GND2 8 9 10 11 12 23 A 22 ISO DI IN 21 ISO DE IN 74HC86 OR EQUIVALENT DI DRIVER INPUT DI´ DE DRIVER ENABLE DE´ RECEIVER OUTPUT RO R2 R3 20 ISO COM1 19 ISO DI DRV 18 ISO VCC2 17 ISO DE DRV 16 15 ISOLATION BARRIER ISO COM2 ISO RO LED R5 R7 100Ω NOTE: RESISTOR R7 PROTECTS THE MAX1480A/B/C FROM TRANSIENT CURRENTS BETWEEN SHIELD AND TRANSMISSION LINES.

The logic inputs can be driven from TTL/CMOS-logic with a series resistor, and the received data output can directly drive TTL or CMOSlogic families with only resistive pullup. Low-Power Shutdown Mode The SD pin shuts down the oscillator on the internal power driver. With the primary side in shutdown, no power is transferred across the isolation barrier. The DI and DE optocouplers, however, still consume current if the drive signals on the nonisolated side are low. Therefore, leave DI´ and DE´ high or floating when in shutdown mode. 12 ______________________________________________________________________________________ Complete, Isolated RS-485/RS-422 Data Interface MAX1480A/B/C, MAX1490A/B VCC3 D1 N R D2 Q N ISO RO DRV ISO DI DRV MAX1490A: MAX490 MAX1490B: MAX488 D SD GND1 Y A B Z MAX845 Q FS OSC 1.07MHz/ 1.45MHz T F/F MAX1490A/B VIN 5V C1 22µF C2 0.1µF VCC1 VCC2 D1 1 2 3 24 AC1 (MAKE NO CONNECTION) 23 AC2 (MAKE NO CONNECTION) 22 ISO VCC1 21 ISO RO DRV 20 A MAX845 MAX488 MAX490 EXTERNAL RS-485/RS-422 WIRING TERMINATING RESISTOR (ONE RESISTOR ON EACH END) TWISTED PAIR TO OTHER TRANSCEIVERS RL A B Z Y R5, 100Ω R4 R6, 100Ω R3 NOTE: RESISTORS R5 AND R6 PROTECT THE MAX1490A/B FROM TRANSIENT CURRENTS BETWEEN SHIELD AND TRANSMISSION LINES.

MAX1490A/MAX1490B Detailed Block Diagram and Typical Application Circuit Under these conditions, the MAX1480B/MAX1480C/ MAX1490B supply current is reduced to as low as 0.2µA. The high-speed optocouplers on the MAX1480A/ MAX1480C/MAX1490A consume an additional 10mA through VCC5 (VCC4 for the MAX1490A). Therefore, to completely shut down these devices, use an external Pchannel MOSFET as shown in Figure 3. In normal opera- tion, SD is low, turning the MOSFET on and thereby providing power to all the VCC_ pins. When SD is pulled high, the power oscillator is disabled and the switch is turned off, disconnecting power from the DI and DE optocouplers. In normal operating mode, the switch carries only the optocoupler currents, so an on-resistance of several ohms will not significantly degrade efficiency. 13 ______________________________________________________________________________________ Complete, Isolated RS-485/RS-422 Data Interface MAX1480A/B/C, MAX1490A/B VIN 5V VCC1 1 VCC2 2 D1 3 D2 4 Si943304 P GND1 5 FS 6 MAX845 MAX1487 28 AC1 27 AC2 MAX1480A 26 ISO VCC1 25 B 24 ISO RO DRV 23 A 22 ISO DI IN 21 ISO DE IN 20 ISO COM1 19 ISO DI DRV 18 ISO VCC2 17 ISO DE DRV 16 ISO COM2 15 ISO RO LED ISOLATION BARRIER SHUTDOWN R1 DI R2 DE R3 RO SD 7 VCC3 8 DI 9 VCC4 10 DE 11 GND2 12 RO 13 VCC5 14 GND Figure 3.

High-frequency harmonics with large amplitudes are evident. Figure 12 shows the same information for the slew-ratelimited MAX1480B/MAX1480C/MAX1490B transmitting the same signal. The high-frequency harmonics have much lower amplitudes, and therefore the potential for EMI is significantly reduced. _____________________Function Tables Half-Duplex Devices (MAX1480A/MAX1480B/MAX1480C) Table 3.

A foldback current limit on the output stage provides immediate protection against short circuits over the entire common-mode range (see the Typical Operating Characteristics). In addition, a thermal shutdown circuit forces the driver outputs into a high-impedance state if the die temperature rises excessively. ___________Applications Information DI and DE are intended to be driven through a series current-limiting resistor. Directly grounding these pins destroys the device. The MAX1480A/MAX1480B/MAX1480C are designed for bidirectional data communications on multipoint bus-transmission lines. The MAX1490A/MAX1490B are designed for full-duplex bidirectional communications that are primarily point-to-point. Figures 13 and 14 show half-duplex and full-duplex typical network application circuits, respectively. 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. The slew-rate-limited MAX1480B/ MAX1480C/MAX1490B are more tolerant of imperfect termination and stubs off the main line. Propagation Delay Skew Typical propagation delays are shown in the Typical Operating Characteristics using the test circuit of Figure 5. Propagation delay skew is simply the difference between the low-to-high and high-to-low propagation delay. Small driver/receiver skew times help reduce EMI and reflections by maintaining balanced differential signals. The receiver skew time, I tPLH - tPHL I, is typically under 100ns for the MAX1480A/MAX1490A and under 1µs for the MAX1480B/MAX1480C/MAX1490B. The driver skew time is typically 25ns for the MAX1480A/MAX1490A and 100ns for the MAX1480B/ MAX1480C/MAX1490B. Layout Considerations The MAX1480A/MAX1480B/MAX1480C/MAX1490A/ MAX1490B pinouts enable optimal PC board layout by minimizing interconnect lengths and crossovers. • For maximum isolation, the “isolation barrier” should not be breached except by the MAX1480A/ MAX1480B/MAX1480C/MAX1490A/MAX1490B.

In a double-sided or multilayer board, these shield traces should be present on all conductor layers. • Try to maximize the width of the isolation barrier wherever possible; a clear space of at least 0.25 inches between ground and isolated common is suggested. The DI and DE (MAX1480A/B/C only) inputs are the cathodes of LEDs whose anodes are connected to the supply. These points are best driven by a CMOS-logic gate with a series resistor to limit the current. The resistor values shown in Tables 1 and 2 are recommended when the 74HC86 gate or equivalent is used. These values may need to be adjusted if a driving gate with dissimilar series resistance is used. All pull-up resistors are based on optocoupler specifications in order to optimize the devices’ data-transfer rates. MAX1480A/B/C, MAX1490A/B Isolated Common Connection The isolated common may be completely floating with respect to the logic ground and the effective network ground. The receiver input resistors will cause the isolated common voltage to go to the mean voltage of the receiver inputs. If using shielded cable, connect the isolated common to the shield through a 100Ω resistor. In the case of the MAX1490, each shield should have its own 100Ω resistor (Figures 1, 2, 13, and 14). Pullup and LED Drive Resistors The MAX1480A/MAX1480B/MAX1480C/MAX1490A/ MAX1490B are specified and characterized using the resistor values shown in Table 1 of Figure 1 and Table 2 of Figure 2.

Doubly Isolated RS-485 Repeater ______________________________________________________________________________________ 19 Complete, Isolated RS-485/RS-422 Data Interface MAX1480A/B/C, MAX1490A/B Doubly Isolated RS-485 Repeater The RS-422/RS-485 standard is specified for cable lengths up to 4000 feet. When approaching or exceeding the specified maximum cable length, a groundpotential difference of several tens of volts can easily develop. This difference can be either DC, AC, at power-line frequency, or any imaginable noise or impulse waveform. It is typically very low impedance so that if a connection between the two grounds is attempted, very large currents may flow. These currents are by their nature unstable and unpredictable. In addition, they may cause noise to be injected into sensitive instrumentation and, in severe cases, might actually cause physical damage to such equipment. Figure 15 shows a half-duplex (two-wire), bidirectional, party-line repeater system that prevents interference and/or damage from ground-potential differences. Two MAX1480A/MAX1480B/MAX1480C isolated RS-485 transceivers are used to isolate each of the network segments from the electrical environment of the repeater. The MAX1480A/MAX1480B/MAX1480C also regenerate bus signals that may have been degraded by line attenuation or dispersion. In the idle state, both transmitters are disabled, while all receivers in the system are enabled. If any device on the system has information for any other device, it starts sending its data onto the bus. Each data transmission on the bus retriggers the one-shot, keeping the sending transmitter enabled until there are no more transmissions. All receivers receive all data; if this is undesirable, the protocol must allow for an address field so receivers can ignore data not directed to them. Each node must refrain from transmitting when data already exists on the bus, and must resend data that is corrupted by the collisions that inevitably occur with a party-line system. With the repeater of Figure 15, there might be transmitters up to 8000 feet apart. That represents more than 8µs (assuming 1ns/foot of delay) in which two nodes could be transmitting simultaneously. The circuit in Figure 15 can be used either directly as shown, with the slew-rate-limited MAX1480B/ MAX1480C, for data transfer rates up to 250kbps, or with the MAX1480A for data rates up to 2.5Mbps (see Table 1 for pullup and LED resistor values when using the MAX1480A or MAX1480B). If dual-port isolation is not needed, one of the MAX1480C devices can be replaced by a MAX487 for 250kbps applications. 20 ______________________________________________________________________________________ Complete, Isolated RS-485/RS-422 Data Interface Ordering Information (continued) PART† MAX1480BCPI MAX1480BEPI MAX1480CCPI MAX1480CEPI MAX1490ACPG MAX1490AEPG MAX1490BCPG MAX1490BEPG TEMP RANGE 0°C to +70°C -40°C to +85°C 0°C to +70°C -40°C to +85°C 0°C to +70°C -40°C to +85°C 0°C to +70°C -40°C to +85°C PIN-PACKAGE 28 Wide Plastic DIP 28 Wide Plastic DIP 28 Wide Plastic DIP 28 Wide Plastic DIP 24 Wide Plastic DIP 24 Wide Plastic DIP 24 Wide Plastic DIP 24 Wide Plastic DIP VCC1 1 VCC2 2 D1 3 D2 4 GND1 5 FS 6 SD 7 VCC3 8 DI 9 VCC4 10 DE 11 GND2 12 RO 13 VCC5 14 MAX845 MAX487 MAX1487 28 AC1 27 AC2 26 ISO VCC1 25 B 24 ISO RO DRV 23 A 22 ISO DI IN 21 ISO DE IN 20 ISO COM1 19 ISO DI DRV 18 ISO VCC2 17 ISO DE DRV 16 ISO COM2 15 ISO RO LED Pin Configurations (continued) TOP VIEW MAX1480A/B/C MAX1480A/B/C, MAX1490A/B †Data rate for “A” parts is up to 2500kbps.
