ISL32490E, ISL32492E, ISL32493E, ISL32495E, ISL32496E, ISL32498E
±60V Fault Protected, 5V, RS-485/RS-422 Transceivers with ±25V CMR and ESD Protection
The ISL32490E, ISL32492E, ISL32493E, ISL32495E,
ISL32496E, and ISL32498E are fault protected, 5V powered,
differential transceivers that exceed the RS-485 and RS-422
standards for balanced communication. The RS-485 transceiver
pins (driver outputs and receiver inputs) are fault protected up to
±60V and are protected against ±16.5kV ESD strikes without
latch-up. Additionally, the extended Common-Mode Range
(CMR) allows these transceivers to operate in environments with
common-mode voltages up to ±25V (>2x the RS-485
requirement), making this fault protected RS-485 family one of
the most robust on the market.
The transmitters (Tx) deliver an exceptional 2.5V (typical)
differential output voltage into the RS-485 specified 54Ω load.
This yields better noise immunity than standard RS-485 ICs, or
allows up to six 120Ω terminations in star network topologies.
The receiver (Rx) inputs feature a full fail-safe design that
ensures a logic high Rx output if the Rx inputs are floating,
shorted, or on a terminated but undriven (idle) bus. The Rx
outputs have high drive levels; typically, 15mA at VOL = 1V (for
opto-coupled, isolated applications).
Half duplex (Rx inputs and Tx outputs multiplexed together)
and full duplex pinouts are available. See Table 1 on page 3 for
key features and configurations by device number.
For fault protected or wide common-mode range RS-485
transceivers with cable invert (polarity reversal) pins, see the
ISL32483E datasheet.

NOTES:
6. All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to device ground unless otherwise
specified.
7. Supply current specification is valid for loaded drivers when DE = 0V.
8. Applies to peak current. See “Typical Performance Curves” beginning on page 11 for more information.
9. Keep RE = 0 to prevent the device from entering shutdown.
10. The RE signal high time must be short enough (typically 600ns to ensure that the device enters shutdown.
13. Set the RE signal high time >600ns to ensure that the device enters shutdown.
14. Compliance to datasheet limits is assured by one or more methods: production test, characterization, and/or design.
15. Tested according to TIA/EIA-485-A, Section 4.2.6 (±80V for 15µs at a 1% duty cycle).
16. See “Caution” statement following “Absolute Maximum Ratings” on page 5.
17. This parameter is not production tested.

Application Information
RS-485 and RS-422 are differential (balanced) data
transmission standards used for long haul or noisy environments.
RS-422 is a subset of RS-485, so RS-485 transceivers are also
RS-422 compliant. RS-422 is a point-to-multipoint (multidrop)
standard that allows only one driver and up to 10 receivers on
each bus, assuming one-unit load devices. RS-485 is a true
multipoint standard that allows up to 32 one-unit load devices
(any combination of drivers and receivers) on each bus. To allow
for multipoint operation, the RS-485 specification requires that
drivers must handle bus contention without sustaining any
damage.
Another important advantage of RS-485 is the extended
Common-Mode Range (CMR), which specifies that the driver
outputs and receiver inputs withstand signals that range from
+12V to -7V. RS-422 and RS-485 are intended for runs as long as
4000ft; thus, the wide CMR is necessary to handle ground
potential differences and voltages induced in the cable by
external fields.

The ISL3249xE is a family of ruggedized RS-485 transceivers
that improves on the RS-485 basic requirements and increases
system reliability. The CMR increases to ±25V, while the RS-485
bus pins (receiver inputs and driver outputs) include fault
protection against voltages and transients up to ±60V.
Additionally, larger than required differential output voltages
(VOD) increase noise immunity, while the ±16.5kV built-in ESD
protection complements the fault protection.
Receiver (Rx) Features
These devices use a differential input receiver for maximum
noise immunity and CMR. Input sensitivity is greater than
±200mV as required by the RS-422 and RS-485 specifications.
The receiver input (load) current surpasses the RS-422
specification of 3mA and is four times lower than the RS-485
Unit Load (UL) requirement of 1mA maximum. Therefore, these
products are known as one-quarter UL transceivers, and there
can be up to 128 of these devices on a network while still
complying with the RS-485 loading specification.
Page 14 of 22
ISL32490E, ISL32492E, ISL32493E, ISL32495E, ISL32496E, ISL32498E
The receiver (Rx) functions with common-mode voltages as great
as ±25V, making them ideal for industrial or long networks
where induced voltages are a realistic concern.
All the receivers include a full fail-safe function that ensures a
high-level receiver output if the receiver inputs are unconnected
(floating), shorted together, or connected to a terminated bus
with all the transmitters disabled (that is, an idle bus).
Rx outputs feature high drive levels (typically 22mA at VOL = 1V) to
ease the design of optically coupled isolated interfaces.
Receivers easily meet the data rates supported by the
corresponding driver, and all receiver outputs are three-statable
using the active low RE input.
The Rx in the 250kbps and 1Mbps versions includes noise
filtering circuitry to reject high-frequency signals. The 1Mbps
version typically rejects pulses narrower than 50ns (equivalent to
20Mbps), while the 250kbps Rx rejects pulses below 150ns
(6.7Mbps).
Driver (Tx) Features
The RS-485/RS-422 driver is a differential output device that
delivers at least 1.5V across a 54Ω load (RS-485) and at least
2.4V across a 100Ω load (RS-422). The drivers feature low
propagation delay skew to maximize bit width and minimize EMI,
and all drivers are three-statable using the active high DE input.
The 250kbps and 1Mbps driver outputs are slew rate limited to
minimize EMI and reflections in unterminated or improperly
terminated networks. The ISL32496E and ISL32498E driver
outputs are not limited; thus, faster output transition times allow
data rates of at least 15Mbps.
High Overvoltage (Fault) Protection
Increases Ruggedness
Note: The available smaller pitch package (MSOP) may not meet
the Creepage and Clearance (C&C) requirements for ±60V levels.
Determine C&C requirements before selecting a package type.
The ±60V fault protection (referenced to the IC GND) on the
RS-485 pins makes these transceivers some of the most rugged
on the market. This level of protection makes the ISL3249xE
perfect for applications where power (such as 24V and 48V
supplies) must be routed in the conduit with the data lines, or for
outdoor applications where large transients are likely to occur.
When power is routed with the data lines, even a momentary
short between the supply and data lines destroys an unprotected
device. The ±60V fault levels of this family are at least five times
higher than the levels specified for standard RS-485 ICs. The
ISL3249xE protection is active whether the Tx is enabled or
disabled, and even if the IC is powered down, or VCC and Ground
are floating.
Widest Common-Mode Voltage (CMV)
Tolerance Improves Operating Range
RS-485 networks operating in industrial complexes or over long
distances are susceptible to large CMV variations. Either of these
operating environments can suffer from large node-to-node
ground potential differences or CMV pickup from external
electromagnetic sources, and devices with only the minimum
required +12V to -7V CMR can malfunction. The ISL3249xE’s
extended ±25V CMR is the widest available, allowing operation in
environments that would overwhelm lesser transceivers.
Additionally, the Rx does not phase invert (erroneously change
state), even with CMVs of ±40V or differential voltages as large
as 40V.
High VOD Improves Noise Immunity and
Flexibility
The ISL3249xE driver design delivers larger differential output
voltages (VOD) than the RS-485 standard requires or than most
RS-485 transmitters can deliver. The typical ±2.5V VOD provides
more noise immunity than networks built using many other
transceivers.
Another advantage of the large VOD is the ability to drive more
than two bus terminations, which allows for using the ISL3249xE
in star and other multi-terminated, nonstandard network
topologies. Figure 11 on page 11 details the transmitter’s VOD vs
IOUT characteristic and includes load lines for four (30Ω) and six
(20Ω) 120Ω terminations. Figure 11 shows that the driver
typically delivers ±1.3V into six terminations, and the “Electrical
Specifications” on page 5 ensures a VOD of ±0.8V at 21Ω across
the full temperature range. The RS-485 standard requires a
minimum 1.5V VOD into two terminations, but the ISL3249xE
devices deliver RS-485 voltage levels with two to three times the
number of terminations.
Hot Plug Function
When a piece of equipment powers up, there is a period of time
when the processor or ASIC driving the RS-485 control lines (DE,
RE) is unable to ensure that the RS-485 Tx and Rx outputs are
kept disabled. If the equipment is connected to the bus, a driver
activating prematurely during power-up may crash the bus. To
avoid this scenario, the ISL3249xE devices incorporate a hot plug
function. Circuitry monitoring VCC ensures that the Tx and Rx
outputs remain disabled during power-up and power-down if VCC
is less than ≈3.5V, regardless of the state of DE and RE. The
disabled Tx and Rx outputs allow the processor/ASIC to stabilize
and drive the RS-485 control lines to the proper states. Figure 29
illustrates the power-up and power-down performance of the
ISL3249xE compared to an RS-485 IC without the hot plug
feature.
If transients or voltages (including overshoots and ringing)
greater than ±60V are possible, additional external protection is
required.

ESD Protection
All pins on these devices include Class 3 (>8kV) Human Body
Model (HBM) ESD protection structures that can survive ESD
events commonly seen during manufacturing. Even so, the
RS-485 pins (driver outputs and receiver inputs) incorporate
more advanced structures, allowing them to survive ESD events
in excess of ±16.5kV HBM (±15kV for the full-duplex versions).
The RS-485 pins are particularly vulnerable to ESD strikes
because they typically connect to an exposed port on the exterior
of the finished product. Touching the port pins or connecting a
cable can cause an ESD event that can destroy unprotected ICs.
The new ESD structures protect the device whether or not it is
powered up, and without interfering with the exceptional ±25V
CMR. The built-in ESD protection minimizes the need for
board-level protection structures (for example, transient
suppression diodes) and the associated undesirable capacitive
load they present.
Data Rate, Cables, and Terminations
RS-485 and RS-422 are intended for network lengths up to
4000ft, but the maximum system data rate decreases as the
transmission length increases. Devices operating at 15Mbps can
be used at lengths up to 150ft (46m), but the distance can be
increased to 328ft (100m) by operating at 10Mbps. The
ISL32493E and ISL32495E can operate at the full data rate of
1Mbps with lengths up to 800ft (244m). Jitter is the limiting
parameter at these faster data rates, so employing encoded data
streams (for example, Manchester coded or Return-to-Zero) can
allow increased transmission distances. The ISL32490E and
ISL32492E can operate at 115kbps or less at the full 4000ft
(1220m) distance, or at 250kbps for lengths up to 3000ft (915m).
DC cable attenuation is the limiting parameter, so using better
quality cables (such as 22 AWG) may allow increased transmission
distance.
Use a twisted pair cable for RS-485/RS-422 networks. Twisted
pair cables tend to pick up noise and other electromagnetically
induced voltages as common-mode signals that are effectively
rejected by the differential receivers in these ICs.
FN7786 Rev.6.00
Feb 8, 2019
Note: Proper termination is imperative to minimize reflections
when using the 15Mbps ISL32496E and ISL32498E devices.
Short networks using the 250kbps ISL32490E and ISL32492E
versions do not need to be terminated; however, terminations are
recommended unless power dissipation is an overriding concern.
In point-to-point or point-to-multipoint networks (single driver on
bus, such as RS-422), terminate the main cable in its
characteristic impedance (typically 120Ω) at the end farthest from
the driver. In multireceiver applications, keep stubs connecting
receivers to the main cable as short as possible. Multipoint
(multidriver) systems require that the main cable be terminated in
its characteristic impedance at both ends. Keep stubs connecting
a transceiver to the main cable as short as possible.
Built-in Driver Overload Protection
The RS-485 specification requires that drivers survive worst-case
bus contentions undamaged. These transceivers meet this
requirement using driver output short-circuit current limits and
on-chip thermal shutdown circuitry.
The driver output stages incorporate a double foldback,
short-circuit current limiting scheme, which ensures that the
output current never exceeds the RS-485 specification, even at
the common-mode and fault condition voltage range extremes.
The first foldback current level (≈70mA) is set to ensure that the
driver never folds back when driving loads with CMVs up to ±25V.
The very low second foldback current setting (≈9mA) minimizes
power dissipation if the Tx is enabled when a fault occurs.
In the event of a major short-circuit condition, the ISL3249xE’s
thermal shutdown feature disables the drivers whenever the die
temperature becomes excessive. Thermal shutdown eliminates
the power dissipation, allowing the die to cool. The drivers
automatically re-enable after the die temperature drops about
+15°C. If the contention persists, the thermal shutdown/re-enable
cycle repeats until the fault is cleared. Receivers stay operational
during thermal shutdown.
Low Power Shutdown Mode
These BiCMOS transceivers all use a fraction of the power
required by competitive devices, but they also include a
shutdown feature that reduces the already low quiescent ICC to a
10µA trickle. These devices enter shutdown whenever the
receiver and driver are simultaneously disabled (RE = VCC and
DE = GND) for a period of at least 600ns. Disabling both the
driver and the receiver for fewer than 60ns ensures that the
transceiver does not enter shutdown.
Receiver and driver enable times increase when the transceiver
enables from shutdown. See Notes 9 through 13 on page 9 for
more information.
