±15kV ESD-Protected, Isolated, 3.3V
RS-485/RS-422 Data Interfaces
____________________________Features
♦ Isolated Data Interface Guaranteed to 1260VRMS
(1min)
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.
The MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB are guaranteed to withstand 1260VRMS (1min) or 1520VRMS (1s). Their isolated
inputs and outputs meet RS-485/RS-422 specifications.
♦ Allows Up to 128 Transceivers on the Bus

MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB
General Description
The MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB are electrically isolated
RS-485/RS-422 data-communications interfaces. The
RS-485/RS-422 I/O pins are protected against ±15kV
electrostatic discharge (ESD) shocks, without latchup.
Transceivers, optocouplers, and a transformer are all
included in one low-cost, 28-pin DIP package. A single
+3.3V supply on the logic side powers both sides of the
interface.
The MAX3480EB features reduced-slew-rate drivers
that minimize EMI and reduce reflections caused by
improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free data
transmission at data rates up to 160kbps. The
MAX3480EA’s driver slew rate is not limited, allowing
transmission rates up to 2.5Mbps.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 1: All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to
logic-side ground (GND1, GND2), unless otherwise specified.
Note 2: For DE´ and DI´ pin descriptions, see Detailed Block Diagram and Typical Application Circuit (Figure 1 for
MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB).
Note 3: Shutdown supply current is the current at VCC1 when shutdown is enabled.
Note 4: Limit guaranteed by applying 1520VRMS for 1s. Test voltage is applied between all pins on one side of the package to all
pins on the other side of the package. For example, between pins 1 and 14, and 15 and 28.
Note 5: Applies to peak current. See Typical Operating Characteristics and Applications Information.

_______________Detailed Description
MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB
±15kV ESD-Protected, Isolated, 3.3V
RS-485/RS-422 Data Interfaces
The MAX3480EB features reduced-slew-rate drivers
that minimize EMI and reduce reflections caused by
improperly terminated cables, allowing error-free transmission at data rates up to 160kbps. The MAX3480EA’s
driver slew rates are not limited, allowing transmission
rates up to 2.5Mbps.
shutdown circuitry that puts 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.
The driver outputs are enabled by bringing DE´ high.
Driver-enable times are typically 500ns for the
MAX3480EA and 1µs for the MAX3480EB. Allow time
for the devices to be enabled before sending data.
When enabled, driver outputs function as line drivers.
Driver outputs are high impedance when DE´ is low.
While outputs are high impedance, they function as line
receivers.
The frequency-select FS is connected to GND_ in normal
operation, which selects a switching frequency of
approximately 600kHz. Connect to high for a higher
900kHz switching frequency.
Drivers are short-circuit current limited and are protected against excessive power dissipation by thermal

__Switching Waveforms (continued)
The MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB withstand 1260V RMS
(1 min) or 1560VRMS (1s). The isolated outputs of these
devices meet all RS-485/RS-422 specifications.
Boost Voltage
The MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB require external diodes
on the primary of the transformer to develop the boost
voltage for the power oscillator. In normal operation,
whenever one of the oscillator outputs (D1 and D2)
goes low, the other goes to approximately double the
supply voltage. Since the circuit is symmetrical, the two
outputs can be combined with diodes, filtered, and
used to power the oscillator itself.
The diodes on the primary side may be any fast-switching, small-signal diodes, such as the 1N914, 1N4148,
or CMPD2838. The nominal value of the primary filter
capacitor C3 is 0.01µF.

There are two mechanisms to prevent excessive output
current and power dissipation caused by faults or by
bus contention. 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.
Resistor R8 (Figures 1 and 2) provides additional protection by current limiting between the shield and the
two signal wires. In the event that shielded cable is
used and an external voltage or transient is inadvertently applied between the shield and the signal wires,
the MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB can be damaged.
Although unlikely, this condition can occur during
installation.
The MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB provide electrical isolation between logic ground and signal paths; they
do not provide isolation from external shields and
the signal paths. When in doubt, do not connect the
shield. The MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB can be damaged if resistor R8 is shorted out.

The MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB provide extra protection
against ESD. The MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB are intended for harsh environments where high-speed communication is important. These devices eliminate the
need for transient suppressor diodes or the use of
discrete protection components. The standard (non-E)
MAX3480A/MAX3480B are recommended for applications where cost is critical.

Figure 9. Human Body ESD Test Model
±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 engineers 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 power-down. After an ESD
event, Maxim’s MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB keep working
without latchup. An isolation capacitor of 270pF 4kV
should be placed between ISO COM and logic ground
for optimal performance against an ESD pulse with
respect to logic ground.
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.
ESD Test Conditions
The +15kV ESD test specifications apply only to the A, B,
Y, and Z I/O pins. The test surge may be referenced to
either the ISO COM or to the nonisolated GND (this presupposes that a bypass capacitor is installed between
VCC2 and the nonisolated GND).
Human Body Model
Figure 9 shows the Human Body Model, and Figure 10
shows the current waveform it generates when discharged into a low impedance. This model consists of a

CURRENT WAVEFORM

100pF capacitor charged to the ESD voltage of interest,
which is then discharged into the test device through a
1.5kΩ resistor.
Machine Model
The Machine Model for ESD tests all pins using a 200pF
storage capacitor and zero discharge resistance. Its
objective is to simulate 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 l/O ports.
The MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB are designed for bidirectional data communications on multipoint bus-transmission lines. Figure 11 shows a typical network application
circuit. To minimize reflections, terminate the line at both
ends with its characteristic impedance, and keep stub
lengths off the main line as short as possible. The slewrate-limited MAX3480EB is more tolerant of imperfect termination and stubs off the main line.
The MAX3480EA/MAX3480EB are specified and characterized using the resistor values shown in Table 1.
Altering the recommended values can degrade performance.
The DI and DE inputs are the cathodes of LEDs whose
anodes are connected to VCC. These points are best
driven by a +3.3V CMOS-logic gate with a series
resistor to limit the current. The resistor values shown
in Table 1 are recommended when the 74HC240 gate
or equivalent is used. DI and DE are intended to be
