Description
ESD protection
– ± 15 kV human body model
– ± 8 kV IEC 1000-4-2 contact discharge
The ST4485EB device is a ± 15 kV ESD
protected, 3.3 V low power transceiver for RS-485
and RS-422 communications. The device
contains one driver and one receiver in half
duplex configuration.
Operate from a single 3.3 V supply - no charge
pump required
Interoperable with 5 V logic
1 µA low current shutdown mode max.
The ST4485EB transmits and receives at
a guaranteed data rate of at least 20 Mbps.
All transmitter outputs and receiver inputs are
protected to ± 15 kV using “Human Body Model”.
Guaranteed 20 Mbps data rate
-7 to 12 V common mode input voltage range
Half duplex versions available
Industry standard 75176 pinout
Current limiting and thermal shutdown for
driver overload protection
The driver is short-circuit current limited and is
protected against excessive power dissipation by
thermal shutdown circuitry that places the driver
outputs into a high-impedance state.

Name and function
1
RO
Receiver output. If A > B by 200 mV, RO will be high; if A < B by 200 mV, RO will be low.
2
RE
Receiver output enable. RO is enabled when RE is low; RO is high impedance when RE
is high. If RE is high and DE is low, the device will enter a low power shutdown mode.
3
DE
Driver output enable. The driver outputs are enabled by bringing DE high. They are high
impedance when DE is low. If RE is high DE is low, the device will enter a low-power
shutdown mode. If the driver outputs are enabled, the part functions as line driver, while
they are high impedance, it functions as line receivers if RE is low.
4
DI
Driver input. 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.
