XR3072X / XR3078X
Data Sheet
Low Power, 18V Tolerant,
3.3V RS-485 / RS-422 Transceivers
General Description
Features
The XR3072X and XR3078X high performance RS-485 /
RS-422 devices are designed for improved performance in
noisy industrial environments and increased tolerance to
system faults.
■
The analog bus pins can withstand direct shorts up to ±18V,
and are protected against ESD events up to ±15kV. The
differential high output driver delivers 10% higher SNR than
standard RS-485 / RS-422 devices, affording additional noise
margin or extended cable lengths.
■
■
The receivers include full fail-safe circuitry, guaranteeing a
logic-high receiver output when the receiver inputs are open,
shorted or undriven. The receiver input impedance is at
minimum 96kΩ (1/8 unit load), allowing up to 256 devices on
the bus while preserving the full signal margin.
■
■
■
The drivers are protected by short circuit detection as well as
thermal shutdown, and maintain high impedance in shutdown
or when powered off. The XR3072X drivers are slew limited
for reduced EMI and error-free communication over long or
unterminated data cables.
■
■
The devices with DE and RE pins include hot swap circuitry
to prevent false transitions on the bus during powerup or live
insertion, and can enter a 1nA low current shutdown mode for
extreme power savings.
The transceivers draw less than 600µA from a 3.3V supply,
and typically only 300µA when idling with the receivers
active.
■

1. Change in magnitude of differential output voltage and change in magnitude of common mode output voltage are the changes in output voltage when
DI input changes state.
2. The hot swap feature disables the DE and RE inputs for the first 10µs after power is applied. Following this time period these inputs are weakly pulled
to their disabled state (low for DE, high for RE) until the first transition, after which they become high impedance inputs.
3. The transceivers are put into shutdown by bringing RE high and DE low simultaneously for at least 600ns. If the control inputs are in this state for less
than 50ns, the device is guaranteed to not enter shutdown. If the enable inputs are held in this state for at least 600ns, the device is assured to be in
shutdown. Note that the receiver and driver enable times increase significantly when coming out of shutdown.
4. This spec is guaranteed by design and bench characterization.

XR3072X / XR3078X 3.3V RS-485 / RS-422 Transceivers Data Sheet
Product Description
Product Description
The XR3072X and XR3078X RS-485 / RS-422 devices are
part of MaxLInear’s X Series high performance serial
interface product line. The analog bus pins can survive
direct shorts up to ±18V, and are protected against ESD
events up to ±15kV. The high output differential driver
delivers 10% higher SNR than other RS-485 / 422 devices,
affording additional noise margin or extended cable
lengths.
Enhanced Fail-Safe
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
XR3072X and XR3078X guarantees a logic-high receiver
output when the receiver inputs are open, shorted, or when
they are connected to a terminated transmission line with
all drivers disabled. In a terminated bus with all transmitters
disabled, the receivers’ differential input voltage is pulled to
0V by the termination. The XR3072X and XR3078X
interpret 0V differential as a logic high with a minimum
50mV noise margin while maintaining compliance with the
EIA / TIA-485 standard of ±200mV. Although the XR3072X
and XR3078X do not need failsafe biasing resistors, they
can operate without issue if biasing is used.
Receiver Input Filtering
The XR3072X receiver incorporates internal filtering in
addition to input hysteresis. This filtering enhances noise
immunity by ignoring signals that do not meet a minimum
pulse width of 30ns. Receiver propagation delay increases
slightly due to this filtering. The high speed XR3078X does
not have this input filtering.
If circuit boards are inserted into an energized backplane
(commonly called "live insertion" or "hot-swap"), power
may suddenly be applied to all circuits. Without the hotswap capability, this situation could improperly enable the
transceiver’s driver or receiver, driving invalid data onto
shared buses and possibly causing driver contention or
device damage.
Driver Output Protection
Two mechanisms prevent excessive output current and
power dissipation caused by faults or by bus contention.
First, a driver current limit on the output stage provides
immediate protection against short circuits over the whole
common-mode voltage range. Second, a thermal shutdown
circuit forces the driver outputs into a high-impedance state
if junction temperature becomes excessive.
Line Length
The RS-485 / RS-422 standard covers line lengths up to
4000ft. Maximum achievable line length is a function of
signal attenuation and noise. Termination prevents signal
reflections by eliminating the impedance mismatches on a
transmission line. Line termination is generally used if rise
and fall times are shorter than the round-trip signal
propagation time. Higher output drivers may allow longer
cables to be used.
Hot-Swap Capability
When VCC is first applied, the XR3072X and XR3078X hold
the driver enable and receiver enable inactive for
approximately 10 microseconds. During power ramp-up,
other system ICs may drive unpredictable values, or
tri-stated lines may be influenced by stray capacitance. The
hot-swap feature prevents these devices from driving any
output signal until power has stabilized. After the initial
10µs, the driver and receiver enable pins are weakly pulled
to their disabled states (low for DE, high for RE) until the
first transition. After the first transition, the DE and RE pins
operate as high impedance inputs.

Product Description
±15kV ESD Protection
256 Transceivers on the Bus
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 XR3072X and XR3078X have extra protection
against static electricity. MaxLinear's uses 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 XR3072X and XR3078X
keep operating without latch-up or damage.
The standard RS-485 receiver input impedance is 12kΩ
(1 unit load). A standard driver can drive up to 32 unit
loads. The XR3072X and XR3078X have a 1/8th unit load
receiver input impedance (96kΩ), allowing up to 256
transceivers to be connected in parallel on a
communication line. Any combination of these devices and
other RS-485 transceivers up to a total of 32 unit loads may
be connected to the line.
ESD protection can be tested in various ways. The
transmitter outputs and receiver inputs of the XR3072X and
XR3078X are characterized for protection to the following
limits:

ESD Test Conditions
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
Low-power shutdown mode is initiated by bringing both RE
high and DE low simultaneously. While in shutdown,
devices draw less than 1µA of supply current. DE and RE
may be tied together and driven by a single control signal.
Devices 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 will enter shutdown.
Enable times tZH and tZL apply when the part is not in a
low-power shutdown state. Enable times tZH(SHDN) and
tZL(SHDN) apply when the parts are shutdown. The drivers
and receivers take longer to become enabled from lowpower shutdown mode tZH(SHDN) and tZL(SHDN) than from
driver /receiver-disable mode (tZH, tZL).
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 XR3072X and
XR3078X help you design equipment to meet IEC 610004-2, without sacrificing board space and cost for external
ESD-protection components.
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. Series resistance is lower in the
IEC 61000-4-2 model. Hence, the ESD withstand voltage
measured to IEC 61000-4-2 is generally lower than that of
the Human Body Model.
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.
