HT3485EB
Low-Power, Slew-Rate-Limited RS-485/RS-422 Transceivers
(compatible to MAX3485 (MAXIM)
Description
The 3485 is low-power transceivers for RS-485
and RS- 422 communication. IC contains one driver
and one receiver. The driver slew rates of the HT3485
is not limited, allowing them to transmit up to 10Mbps.
These transceivers draw between 120µA and
500µA of supply current when unloaded or fully loaded
with disabled drivers. All parts operate from a single
3.3V supply. Drivers are short-circuit current limited and
are protected against excessive power dissipation by
thermal shutdown circuitry that places the driver outputs
into a high-impedance state. The receiver input has a
fail-safe feature that guarantees a logic-high output if
the input is open circuit.

Typical Information
Figure 10. 3485 Typical RS-485 Network
Driver Output Protection
Excessive output current and power dissipation caused by faults or by bus contention are prevented by two
mechanisms. A foldback current limit on the output stage provides immediate protection against short circuits
over the whole common-mode voltage range. In addition, a thermal shutdown circuit forces the driver outputs
into a high-impedance state if the die temperature rises excessively.
Propagation Delay
Skew time is simply the difference between the low-to-high and high-to-low propagation delay. Small
driver/receiver skew times help maintain a symmetrical mark-space ratio (50% duty cycle).
The receiver skew time, |tPRLH - tPRHL|, is under 10ns. The driver skew times are 5ns for the 3485.
Typical Applications
3485 transceivers are designed for bidirectional data communications on multipoint bus transmission lines.
Figure 10 shows typical network applications circuits. These parts can also be used as line repeaters, with
cable lengths longer than 4000 feet.
To minimize reflections, the line should be terminated at both ends in its characteristic impedance, and stub
lengths off the main line should be kept as short as possible.
