Isolated 40Mbps RS-485 PROFIBUS Transceiver
The ISL32740E is a galvanically isolated high-speed
differential bus transceiver, designed for bidirectional
data communication on balanced transmission lines. The
device uses Giant Magnetoresistance (GMR) as its
isolation technology.
Features
• 40Mbps data rate
• 2.5kVRMS isolation/600VRMS working voltage
• 3V to 5V power supplies
The part is available in a 16 Ld QSOP package offering
unprecedented miniaturization, and in a 16 Ld SOICW
package providing a true 8mm creepage distance.
• 20ns propagation delay
The ISL32740E is PROFIBUS compliant, including the
rigorous PROFIBUS differential output voltage
specifications.
• 50kV/µs (typical), 30kV/µs (minimum)
common-mode transient immunity
A unique ceramic/polymer composite barrier provides
excellent isolation and 44,000 years of barrier life.
• Low EMC footprint
The device is compatible with 3V as well as 5V input
supplies, allowing an interface to standard
microcontrollers without additional level shifting.
Current limiting and thermal shutdown features protect
against output short circuits and bus contention that may
cause excessive power dissipation. Receiver inputs are a
full fail-safe design, ensuring a logic high R-output if
A/B are floating or shorted.

8. All voltages on the isolator primary side are with respect to GND1. All line voltages and common-mode voltages on the isolator
secondary or bus side are with respect to GND2.
9. Differential I/O voltage is measured at the noninverting bus Terminal A with respect to the inverting Terminal B.
10. Skew limit is the maximum propagation delay difference between any two devices at +25°C.
11. The power-off measurement in ANSI Standard EIA/TIA-422-B applies to disabled outputs only and is not applied to combined
inputs and outputs.
12. All typical values are at VDD1, VDD2 = 5V or VDD1 = 3.3V and TA = +25°C.
13. -7V < VCM < 12V; 4.5 < VDD < 5.5V.
14. VOD and VOC are the changes in magnitude of VOD and VOD respectively, that occur when the input is changed from one
logic state to the other.
15. This applies for both power-on and power-off; refer to ANSI standard RS-485 for the exact condition. The EIA/TIA-422 -B limit
does not apply for a combined driver and receiver terminal.
16. Includes 10ns read enable time. Maximum propagation delay is 25ns after read assertion.
17. Pulse skew is defined as |tPLH - tPHL| of each channel.

5. Application Information
Application Information
The ISL32740E is an isolated PROFIBUS transceiver specifically designed for PROFIBUS-DP applications.
5.1
PROFIBUS
This transceiver uses a differential input receiver for maximum noise immunity and common-mode rejection.
PROFIBUS (Process Field Bus) is specified in IEC61158 as a standard for field bus communication in automation
technology. Two versions of PROFIBUS exist: PROFIBUS - PA for Process Automation and PROFIBUS-DP for
Decentralized Peripherals. The most commonly used version, PROFIBUS-DP, is a protocol for deterministic
communication between PROFIBUS masters and their remote I/O slaves.
While the physical layer of PROFIBUS-DP is based on RS-485 with its differential signaling scheme, significant
differences between the two physical layers exist with regard to cable type, bus termination, and minimum bus
voltage, to name just a few parameters.

Galvanic Isolation
To enable PROFIBUS transceivers operating over a wider common-mode voltage range than specified in RS-485
(7V to +12V), modern transceiver designs incorporate galvanic digital isolators with the transceiver circuitry. Here
the ISL32740E uses a Giant Magnetoresistance (GMR) isolation. Figure 3 shows the principle operation of a single
channel GMR isolator.

Figure 3. Single Channel GMR Isolator
The input signal is buffered and drives a primary coil, which creates a magnetic field that changes the resistance of
the GMR resistors 1 to 4. GMR1 to GMR4 form a Wheatstone bridge in order to create a bridge output voltage that
reacts only to magnetic field changes from the primary coil. Large external magnetic fields however, are treated as
common-mode fields, and are therefore suppressed by the bridge configuration. The bridge output is fed into a
comparator with an output signal identical in phase and shape to the input signal.

5. Application Information
GMR Resistor in Detail
Figure 4 shows a GMR resistor consisting of ferromagnetic alloy layers B1 and B2 sandwiched around an ultra
thin, nonmagnetic conducting middle layer A, typically copper. The GMR structure is designed so that in the
absence of a magnetic field, the magnetic moments in B1 and B2 face opposite directions, thus causing heavy
electron scattering across layer A, which drastically increases its resistance for current C. When a magnetic field D
is applied, the magnetic moments in B1 and B2 are aligned and electron scattering is reduced. This lowers the
resistance of layer A and current C increases.

Low Emissions
Because GMR isolators do not use complex encoding schemes, such as RF carriers or high-frequency clocks, and
do not include power transfer coils or transformers, their radiated emission spectrum is practically undetectable.

Low EMI Susceptibility
Because GMR isolators have no pulse trains or carriers to interfere with, they also have very low EMI susceptibility.

5.6
Receiver (Rx) Features
This transceiver uses a differential input receiver for maximum noise immunity and common-mode rejection. Input
sensitivity is ±200mV, as required by the RS-422 and RS-485 specifications. Receiver inputs function with
common-mode voltages as great as 7V outside the power supplies (for example, +12V and -7V), making them ideal
for long networks, or industrial environments, where induced voltages are a realistic concern.
The receiver input resistance of 54kΩ surpasses the RS-422 specification of 4kΩ and is about five times the
RS-485 “Unit Load” (UL) requirement of 12kΩ minimum. Thus, the ISL32740E is known as a “one-fifth UL”
transceiver, and there can be up to 160 devices on the RS-485 bus while still complying with the RS-485 loading
specification.

ISL32740E
5. Application Information
The receiver is a “full fail-safe” version 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
(terminated/undriven).
Rx outputs deliver large low state currents (typically >30mA) at VOL = 1V.
Receivers easily meet the 40Mbps data rate supported by the driver, and the receiver output is tri-statable using the
active low RE input.
5.7
Driver (Tx) Features
The RS-485/RS-422 driver is a differential output device that delivers at least 2.1V across a 54Ω load
(RS-485/PROFIBUS), and at least 2.6V across a 100Ω load (RS-422) even with VCC = 4.5V. The drivers feature
low propagation delay skew to maximize bit width and to minimize EMI.
Outputs of the drivers are not slew rate limited, so faster output transition times allow data rates of at least 40Mbps.
Driver outputs are tri-statable through the active high DE input.
5.7.1
High VOD Improves Noise Immunity and Flexibility
The ISL32740E driver design delivers larger differential output voltages (VOD) than the RS-485 standard
requires, or than most RS-485 transmitters can deliver. The minimum ±2.1V VOD ensures at least ±600mV
more noise immunity than networks built using standard 1.5V VOD transmitters.
Another advantage of the large VOD is the ability to drive more than two bus terminations, which allows for
using the ISL32740E in “star” and other multi-terminated, “nonstandard” network topologies.
5.8
Built-In Driver Overload Protection
As stated previously, the RS-485 specification requires that drivers survive worst case bus contentions undamaged.
These transmitters meet this requirement through driver output short-circuit current limits, and on-chip thermal
shutdown circuitry.
The driver output stages incorporate short-circuit current limiting circuitry, which ensures that the output current
never exceeds the RS-485 specification, even at the common-mode voltage range extremes. In the event of a major
short-circuit condition, the device includes a thermal shutdown feature that disables the drivers whenever the die
temperature becomes excessive. This 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.
5.9
Dynamic Power Consumption
The isolator within the ISL32740E achieves its low power consumption from the way it transmits data across the
barrier. By detecting the edge transitions of the input logic signal and converting these to narrow current pulses, a
magnetic field is created around the GMR Wheatstone bridge. Depending on the direction of the magnetic field, the
bridge causes the output comparator to switch following the input signal. Because the current pulses are narrow,
about 2.5ns, the power consumption is independent of the mark-to-space ratio and solely depends on frequency.

5. Application Information
Power Supply Decoupling
Both supplies, VDD1 and VDD2, must be bypassed with 100nF ceramic capacitors. The capacitors should be placed
as close as possible to the supply pins for proper operation.
5.11
DC Correctness
The ISL32740E incorporates a patented refresh circuit to maintain the correct output state with respect to data input.
At power-up, the bus outputs follow the truth tables on page 3. The DE input should be held low during power-up to
prevent false drive data pulses on the bus.
5.12
Data Rate, Cables, and Terminations
Twisted pair is the cable of choice for RS-485, RS-422, and PROFIBUS networks. Twisted pair cables tend to pick
up noise and other electromagnetically induced voltages as common-mode signals, which are effectively rejected
by the differential receivers in these ICs.
According to guidelines in the RS-422 and PROFIBUS specifications, networks operating at data rates in excess of
3Mbps should be limited to cable lengths of 100m (328 ft) or less and the PROFIBUS specification recommends
that the more expensive “Type A” (22AWG) cable be used. The ISL32740E’s large differential output swing, fast
transition times, and high drive-current output stages allow operation even at 40Mbps over standard Cat 5 cables in
excess of 100m (328 ft).
The ISL324740E can also be used at slower data rates over longer cables, but there are some limitations. The Rx is
optimized for high-speed operation, so its output may glitch if the Rx input differential transition times are too
slow. Keeping the transition times below 500ns, (which equates to the Tx driving a 1000ft (305m) Cat 5 cable)
yields excellent performance across the full operating temperature range.
To minimize reflections, proper termination is imperative when using this high data rate transceiver. In point-topoint, or point-to-multipoint (single driver on bus) networks, the main cable should be terminated in its
characteristic impedance (typically 100Ω for Cat 5, 120Ω for RS-485, and 150Ω for Type A) at the end farthest
from the driver. In multireceiver applications, stubs connecting receivers to the main cable should be kept as short
as possible. Multipoint (multidriver) systems require that the main cable be terminated in its characteristic
impedance at both ends. Stubs connecting transceivers to the main cable should be kept as short as possible.
PROFIBUS specifies line termination with fail-safe biasing networks of fixed resistor values at both cable ends.

For isolated data links meeting the requirements of EIA-485, the resistor values for the fail-safe biasing network

For data links longer than 100m (330ft) apply fail-safe biasing at both cable ends to compensate for the attenuation
of the bus fail-safe voltage caused by the voltage divider action of the cable’s DC resistance and the remote failsafe biasing network. Use (EQ. 1) to calculate the bias resistors, RB, and (EQ. 2) to determine the termination

Transient Protection
Protecting the ISL32740E against transients exceeding the device’s transient immunity requires the addition of an
external TVS. For this purpose, Semtech’s RClamp0512TQ was chosen due to its high transient protection levels,
low junction capacitance, and small form factor.

Form Factor
The TVS is implemented between the bus lines and isolated ground (GND2).
Because transient voltages on the bus lines are referenced to Earth potential, also known as Protective Earth (PE), a
high-voltage capacitor (CHV) is inserted between GND2 and PE, providing a low-impedance path for highfrequency transients.
Note that the connection from the PE point on the isolated side to the PE point on the non-isolated side (Earth) is
usually made using the metal chassis of the equipment, or through a short, thick wire of low-inductance.
A high-voltage resistor (RHV) is added in parallel to CHV to prevent the build-up of static charges on floating
grounds (GND2) and cable shields (typically used in PROFIBUS). The bill of materials for the circuit in Figure 9 is
listed in Table 6 on page 16.
