SP3070E - SP3078E Family
Data Sheet
±15kV ESD-Protected, 3.3V, 1/8 Load, Failsafe
RS-485/RS-422 Transceivers
General Description
Features
The SP3070E - SP3078E differential line transceivers are
suitable for bidirectional communication on balanced
multi-point bus transmission lines and comply with both
RS-485 and RS-422 EIA Standards. Each device consists
of a differential driver and differential receiver. All devices
operate from a 3.3V power supply.
■
■
■
±15kV ESD protection for RS-485 pins
■
■
■
■
■
Up to 256 transceivers may share Bus
High receiver input impedance allows a large number of
transceivers to share a common data bus while
maintaining signal margin and without excessive loading
or use of expensive repeaters. The high impedance driver
output is maintained over the entire common-mode
voltage range from -7 to +12V. Receivers will failsafe to
logic 1 output when inputs are open, shorted or
terminated. Drivers include built-in short-circuit protection
and a thermal-overload shutdown to protect against
excessive power dissipation from bus contention or cable
faults. All RS-485 receiver inputs and driver outputs are
ESD protected up to ±15kV (Air-Gap and Human Body
Model) and up to ±8kV Contact Discharge (IEC 61000-42). The SP3070E - SP3078E devices may not achieve
optimal transmit performance if the connected receiver
includes a biasing network to 5.0V without a termination
resistor. Please see MaxLinear Application Note ANI#21
for further details.

SP3070E - SP3078E Family RS-485/RS-422 Transceivers Data Sheet
Detailed Description
Detailed Description
The SP307XE family of high speed transceivers for RS-485
/RS-422 communication contain one driver and one
receiver. These devices feature fail-safe circuitry, which
guarantees a logic-high receiver output when the receiver
inputs are open or shorted, or when they are connected to
a terminated transmission line with all drivers disabled. The
SP3070E, SP3072E, SP3073E, SP3075E, SP3076E and
SP3078E also feature a hot-swap capability allowing live
insertion without error data transfer. The SP3070E,
SP3071E and SP3072E feature reduced slew-rate drivers
that minimize EMI and reduce reflections caused by
improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free data
transmission up to 250kbps. The SP3073E, SP3074E and
SP3075E also offer slew-rate limits allowing transmit
speeds up to 500kbps. The SP3076E, SP3077E,
SP3078E driver slew rates are not limited, making transmit
speeds up to 16Mbps possible.
The SP3072E, SP3075E and SP3078E are half-duplex
transceivers, while the SP3070E, SP3071E, SP3073E,
SP3074E, SP3076E and SP3077E are full duplex
transceivers.
All devices operate from a single 3.3V supply. Drivers are
output short-circuit current limited. Thermal-shutdown
circuitry protects drivers against excessive power
dissipation. When activated, the thermal-shutdown circuitry
places the driver outputs into a high-impedance state.
Receiver Input Filtering
SP3070E-SP3075E receivers incorporate input filtering in
addition to input hysteresis. This filtering enhances noise
immunity with differential signals that have very slow rise
and fall times. Receiver propagation delay increases by
25% due to this filtering.
Fail Safe
The SP3070E family guarantees a logic-high receiver
output when the receiver inputs are shorted, open, or when
they are connected to a terminated transmission line with
all drivers disabled. If A - B is less than or equal to -200mV,
RO is logic low. In the case of a terminated bus with all
transmitters disabled, the receiver's differential input
voltage is pulled to 0V by the termination. With the receiver
thresholds of the SP3070E family, this results in a logic
high with a 50mV minimum noise margin. In compliance
with the EIA / TIA-485 standard, the SP3070E family has a
50mV - 200mV threshold.
2/24/20
Hot-Swap Capability
When circuit boards are inserted into a hot backplane,
differential disturbances to the data bus can lead to data
errors. Upon initial circuit board insertion, the data
communication processor undergoes its own power-up
sequence. During this period, the processor's logic-output
drivers are high impedance and are unable to drive the DE
and RE inputs of these devices to a defined logic level.
Leakage currents up to 10µA from the high-impedance
state of the processor's logic drivers could cause standard
CMOS enable inputs of a transceiver to drift to an incorrect
logic level. Additionally, parasitic circuit board capacitance
could cause coupling of VCC or GND to the enable inputs.
Without the hot-swap capability, these factors could
improperly enable the transceiver's driver or receiver.
When VCC rises, an internal pulldown circuit holds DE low
and RE high for approximately 10 microseconds. After the
initial power-up sequence, the pulldown circuit becomes
transparent, resetting the hot-swap tolerable input.
15kV ESD Protection
As with all MaxLinear devices, ESD-protection structures
are incorporated on all pins to protect against electrostatic
discharges encountered during handling and assembly.
The driver output and receiver inputs of the SP3070E
family of devices have extra protection against static
electricity. MaxLinear's engineering team have developed
state of the art structures to protect these pins against ESD
of 15kV without damage. The ESD structures withstand
high ESD in all states: normal operation, shutdown and
powered down. After an ESD event, the SP3070E SP3078E keep working without latchup or damage.
ESD protection can be tested in various ways. The
transmitter outputs and receiver inputs of the SP3070E SP3078E are characterized for protection to the following
limits:

free data transmission up to 250kbps. The SP3073E,
SP3074E and SP3075E offer higher driver output slew-rate
limits, allowing transmit speeds up to 500kbps.
ESD performance depends on a variety of conditions.
Contact MaxLinear for a reliability report that documents
test setup, methodology and results.
Low Power Shutdown Mode
IEC 61000-4-2
The IEC 61000-4-2 standard covers ESD testing and
performance of finished equipment. However, it does not
specifically refer to integrated circuits. The SP3070E family
of devices helps you design equipment to meet IEC 610004-2, without the need for additional ESD-protection
components.
Low-power shutdown mode is initiated by bringing both RE
high and DE low. In shutdown, the devices typically draw
only 50nA of supply current.
RE and DE can be driven simultaneously; the parts are
guaranteed not to enter shutdown if RE is high and DE is
low for less than 50ns. If the inputs are in this state for at
least 600ns, the parts are guaranteed to enter shutdown.
The major difference between tests done using the Human
Body Model and IEC 61000-4-2 is higher peak current in
IEC 61000-4-2, because series resistance is lower in the
IEC 1000-4-2 model. Hence, the ESD withstand voltage
measured to IEC 61000-4-2 is generally lower than that
measured using the Human Body Model.
Enable times tZH and tZL assume the part was not in a lowpower shutdown state. Enable times tZH(SHDN) and
tZL(SHDN) assume the parts were shut down. It takes drivers
and receivers longer to become enabled from low-power
shutdown mode tZH(SHDN) and tZL(SHDN) than from driver /
receiver-disable mode (tZH, tZL).
The air-gap test involves approaching the device with a
charged probe. The contact-discharge method connects
the probe to the device before the probe is energized.
Driver Output Protection
Machine Model
The machine model for ESD tests all pins using a 200pF
storage capacitor and zero discharge resistance. The
objective is to emulate the stress caused when I/O pins are
contacted by handling equipment during test and
assembly.
Two mechanisms prevent excessive output current and
power dissipation caused by faults or by bus contention.
First, current limit on the output stage, provides immediate
protection against short circuits over the whole commonmode voltage range.
Second, a thermal-shutdown circuit, forces the driver
outputs into a high-impedance state if the die temperature
becomes excessive.
256 Transceivers on the Bus
Line Length
The standard RS-485 receiver input impedance is 12kΩ
(1 unit load), and the standard driver can drive up to 32 unit
loads. The SP3070E family of transceivers has a 1/8-unit
load receiver input impedance (96kΩ), allowing up to 256
transceivers to be connected in parallel on one
communication line. Any combination of these devices as
well as other RS-485 transceivers with a total of 32 unit
loads or fewer can be connected to the line.
The RS-485/RS422 standard covers line lengths up to
4000ft.
Reduced EMI and Reflections
To minimize reflections, terminate the line at both ends in
its characteristic impedance, and keep stub lengths off the
main line as short as possible. The slew-rate-limited
SP3070E - SP3075E are more tolerant of imperfect
termination.
The SP3070E, SP3071E and SP3072E feature reduced
slew-rate drivers that minimize EMI and reduce reflections
caused by improperly terminated cables, allowing error-

Typical Applications
The SP3072E, SP3075E and SP3078E transceivers are
designed for bidirectional data communications on
multipoint bus transmission lines.
