General Description
The MAX481E, MAX483E, MAX485E, MAX487E–
MAX491E, and MAX1487E are low-power transceivers for
RS-485 and RS-422 communications in harsh environments. Each driver output and receiver input is protected
against ±15kV electro-static discharge (ESD) shocks,
without latchup. These parts contain one driver and one
receiver. The MAX483E, MAX487E, MAX488E, and
MAX489E feature reduced slew-rate drivers that minimize
EMI and reduce reflections caused by improperly terminated cables, thus allowing error-free data transmission
up to 250kbps. The driver slew rates of the MAX481E,
MAX485E, MAX490E, MAX491E, and MAX1487E are not
limited, allowing them to transmit up to 2.5Mbps.
These transceivers draw as little as 120µA supply current when unloaded or when fully loaded with disabled
drivers (see Selector Guide). Additionally, the MAX481E,
MAX483E, and MAX487E have a low-current shutdown
mode in which they consume only 0.5µA. All parts operate from a single +5V supply.
Drivers are short-circuit current limited, and are protected
against excessive power dissipation by thermal shutdown
circuitry that places their 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.
The MAX487E and MAX1487E feature quarter-unit-load
receiver input impedance, allowing up to 128 transceivers on the bus. The MAX488E–MAX491E are
designed for full-duplex
communications,
while the
Functional
Diagrams
MAX481E, MAX483E, MAX485E, MAX487E, and
MAX1487E are designed for half-duplex applications.
For applications that are not ESD sensitive see the pinand function-compatible MAX481, MAX483, MAX485,
MAX487–MAX491, and MAX1487.

NOTES FOR ELECTRICAL/SWITCHING CHARACTERISTICS
Note 1: All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to device
ground unless otherwise specified.
Note 2: All typical specifications are given for VCC = 5V and TA = +25°C.
Note 3: Supply current specification is valid for loaded transmitters when DE = 0V.
Note 4: Applies to peak current. See Typical Operating Characteristics.
–—–
Note 5: The MAX481E/MAX483E/MAX487E are put into shutdown by bringing RE high and DE low. If the inputs are in this state for
less than 50ns, the parts are guaranteed not to enter shutdown. If the inputs are in this state for at least 600ns, the parts are
guaranteed to have entered shutdown. See Low-Power Shutdown Mode section.

__________Applications Information
The MAX481E/MAX483E/MAX485E/MAX487E–MAX491E
and MAX1487E are low-power transceivers for RS-485
and RS-422 communications. These “E” versions of the
MAX481, MAX483, MAX485, MAX487–MAX491, and
MAX1487 provide extra protection against ESD. The
rugged MAX481E, MAX483E, MAX485E, MAX497E–
MAX491E, and MAX1487E are intended for harsh environments where high-speed communication is important.
These devices eliminate the need for transient suppressor diodes and the associated high capacitance loading.
The standard (non-“E”) MAX481, MAX483, MAX485,
MAX487–MAX491, and MAX1487 are recommended for
applications where cost is critical.
The MAX481E, MAX485E, MAX490E, MAX491E, and
MAX1487E can transmit and receive at data rates up to
2.5Mbps, while the MAX483E, MAX487E, MAX488E,
and MAX489E are specified for data rates up to
250kbps. The MAX488E–MAX491E are full-duplex
transceivers, while the MAX481E, MAX483E, MAX487E,
and MAX1487E are half-duplex. In addition, driverenable (DE) and receiver-enable (RE) pins are included
on the MAX481E, MAX483E, MAX485E, MAX487E,
MAX489E, MAX491E, and MAX1487E. When disabled,
the driver and receiver outputs are high impedance.
±15kV ESD Protection
As with all Maxim devices, ESD-protection structures
are incorporated on all pins to protect against electrostatic discharges encountered during handling and
assembly. The driver outputs and receiver inputs have
extra protection against static electricity. Maxim’s engi-
Maxim Integrated
X = Don't care
High-Z = High impedance
* Shutdown mode for MAX481E/MAX483E/MAX487E
neers 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, Maxim’s MAX481E, MAX483E, MAX485E,
MAX487E–MAX491E, and MAX1487E keep working
without latchup.
ESD protection can be tested in various ways; the
transmitter outputs and receiver inputs of this product
family are characterized for protection to ±15kV using
the Human Body Model.
Other ESD test methodologies include IEC10004-2 contact discharge and IEC1000-4-2 air-gap discharge (formerly IEC801-2).
ESD Test Conditions
ESD performance depends on a variety of conditions.
Contact Maxim for a reliability report that documents
test set-up, test methodology, and test results.
Human Body Model
Figure 4 shows the Human Body Model, and Figure 5
shows the current waveform it generates when discharged into a low impedance. This model consists of
a 100pF capacitor charged to the ESD voltage of interest, which is then discharged into the test device
through a 1.5kΩ resistor.
IEC1000-4-2
The IEC1000-4-2 standard covers ESD testing and performance of finished equipment; it does not specifically
refer to integrated circuits (Figure 6).

The major difference between tests done using the
Human Body Model and IEC1000-4-2 is higher peak
current in IEC1000-4-2, because series resistance is
lower in the IEC1000-4-2 model. Hence, the ESD withstand voltage measured to IEC1000-4-2 is generally
lower than that measured using the Human Body
Model. Figure 7 shows the current waveform for the 8kV
IEC1000-4-2 ESD contact-discharge test.
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.
Machine Model
The Machine Model for ESD tests all pins using a
200pF storage capacitor and zero discharge resistance. Its objective is to emulate the stress caused by
contact that occurs with handling and assembly during
manufacturing. Of course, all pins require this protection during manufacturing—not just inputs and outputs.
Therefore, after PC board assembly, the Machine Model
is less relevant to I/O ports.
MAX487E/MAX1487E:
128 Transceivers on the Bus
The 48kΩ, 1/4-unit-load receiver input impedance of the
MAX487E and MAX1487E allows up to 128 transceivers
on a bus, compared to the 1-unit load (12kΩ input
impedance) of standard RS-485 drivers (32 transceivers
maximum). Any combination of MAX487E/MAX1487E
and other RS-485 transceivers with a total of 32 unit
loads or less can be put on the bus. The MAX481E,
MAX483E, MAX485E, and MAX488E–MAX491E have
standard 12kΩ receiver input impedance.

MAX483E/MAX487E/MAX488E/MAX489E:
Reduced EMI and Reflections
The MAX483E and MAX487E–MAX489E are slew-rate
limited, minimizing EMI and reducing reflections
caused by improperly terminated cables. Figure 16
shows the driver output waveform and its Fourier analysis of a 150kHz signal transmitted by a MAX481E,
MAX485E, MAX490E, MAX491E, or MAX1487E. Highfrequency harmonics with large amplitudes are evident.
Figure 17 shows the same information displayed for a
MAX483E, MAX487E, MAX488E, or MAX489E transmitting under the same conditions. Figure 17’s high-frequency harmonics have much lower amplitudes, and
the potential for EMI is significantly reduced.
Low-Power Shutdown Mode
(MAX481E/MAX483E/MAX487E)
A low-power shutdown mode is initiated by bringing
both RE high and DE low. The devices will not shut
down unless both the driver and receiver are disabled.
In shutdown, the devices typically draw only 0.5µA of
supply current.
RE and DE may 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.
For the MAX481E, MAX483E, and MAX487E, the t ZH
and tZL enable times assume the part was not in the
low-power shutdown state (the MAX485E, MAX488E–
MAX491E, and MAX1487E can not be shut down). The
t ZH(SHDN) and t ZL(SHDN) enable times assume the
parts were shut down (see Electrical Characteristics).

delay times. Typical propagation delays are shown in
Figures 19–22 using Figure 18’s test circuit.
The difference in receiver delay times, tPLH - tPHL, is
typically under 13ns for the MAX481E, MAX485E,
MAX490E, MAX491E, and MAX1487E, and is typically
less than 100ns for the MAX483E and MAX487E–
MAX489E.
The driver skew times are typically 5ns (10ns max) for
the MAX481E, MAX485E, MAX490E, MAX491E, and
MAX1487E, and are typically 100ns (800ns max) for the
MAX483E and MAX487E–MAX489E.
Typical Applications
Figure 18. Receiver Propagation Delay Test Circuit
It takes the drivers and receivers longer to become
enabled from the low-power shutdown state (tZH(SHDN),
tZL(SHDN)) than from the operating mode (tZH, tZL). (The
parts are in operating mode if the RE, DE inputs equal a
logical 0,1 or 1,1 or 0, 0.)
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 (see Typical
Operating Characteristics). In addition, a thermal shutdown circuit forces the driver outputs into a high-impedance state if the die temperature rises excessively.
Propagation Delay
Many digital encoding schemes depend on the difference between the driver and receiver propagation
Maxim Integrated
The MAX481E, MAX483E, MAX485E, MAX487E–
MAX491E, and MAX1487E transceivers are designed for
bidirectional data communications on multipoint bus
transmission lines. Figures 25 and 26 show typical network application 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. The slew-rate-limited MAX483E and MAX487E–
MAX489E are more tolerant of imperfect termination.
Bypass the VCC pin with 0.1µF.
Isolated RS-485
For isolated RS-485 applications, see the MAX253 and
MAX1480 data sheets.
Line Length vs. Data Rate
The RS-485/RS-422 standard covers line lengths up to
4000 feet. Figures 23 and 24 show the system differential voltage for the parts driving 4000 feet of 26AWG
twisted-pair wire at 110kHz into 100Ω loads.
