DESCRIPTION
The SN65HVD888 is a low-power RS-485 transceiver
with automatic bus-polarity correction and transient
protection. Upon hot plug-in, the device detects and
corrects the bus polarity within the first 76 ms of bus
idling. On-chip transient protection protects the device
against IEC61000 ESD and EFT transients. This
device has robust drivers and receivers for
demanding industrial applications. The bus pins are
robust to electrostatic discharge (ESD) events, with
high levels of protection to Human-Body Model
(HBM), Air-Gap Discharge, and Contact Discharge
specifications.
The device combines a differential driver and a
differential receiver, which operate together from a
single 5-V power supply. The driver differential
outputs and the receiver differential inputs are
connected internally to form a bus port suitable for
half-duplex (two-wire bus) communication. The
device features a wide common-mode voltage range
making the device suitable for multi-point applications
over long cable runs. The SN65HVD888 is available
in an SOIC-8 package, and is characterized from
–40°C to 85°C.

The algebraic convention in which the least positive (most negative) limit is designated as minimum is used in this data sheet.
Operation is specified for internal (junction) temperatures up to 150°C. Self-heating due to internal power dissipation should be
considered for each application. Maximum junction temperature is internally limited by the thermal shut-down (TSD) circuit which
disables the driver outputs when the junction temperature reaches 170°C.

DEVICE INFORMATION
Low-Power Standby Mode
When the driver and the receiver are both disabled (DE = Low and RE = High) the device enters standby mode.
If the enable inputs are in the disabled state for only a brief time (for example: less than 100 ns), the device does
not enter standby mode, preventing the SN65HVD888 from entering standby mode during driver or receiver
enabling. Only when the enable inputs are held in the disabled state for a duration of 300 ns or more does the
device enter low-power standby mode. In this mode most internal circuitry is powered down, and the steady-state
supply current is typically less than 400 nA. When either the driver or the receiver is re-enabled, the internal
circuitry becomes active. During VCC power-up, when the device is set for both driver and receiver disabled
mode, the device may consume more than 5-µA of ICC disabled current because of capacitance charging
effects. This condition occurs only during VCC power up.
Bus Polarity Correction
The SN65HVD888 automatically corrects a wrong bus-signal polarity caused by a cross-wire fault. In order to
detect the bus polarity, all three of the following conditions must be met:
• A failsafe-biasing network (commonly at the master node) must define the signal polarity of the bus
• A slave node must enable the receiver and disable the driver (/RE = DE = Low)
• The bus must idle for the failsafe time, tFS-max
After the failsafe time has passed, the polarity correction is complete and is applied to both the receive and
transmit channels. The status of the bus polarity is latched within the transceiver and is maintained for
subsequent data transmissions.
NOTE
Data string durations of consecutive 0s or 1s exceeding tFS-min can accidently trigger a
wrong polarity correction and must be avoided.
Figure 11 shows a simple point-to-point data link between a master node and a slave node. Because the master
node with the failsafe biasing network determines the signal polarity on the bus, an RS-485 transceiver without
polarity correction, such as SN65HVD82, suffices. All other bus nodes, typically performing as slaves, require the
SN65HVD888 transceiver with polarity correction.

Figure 11. Point-To-Point Data Link With Cross-Wire Fault
Prior to initiating data transmission the master transceiver must idle for a time span that exceeds the maximum
failsafe time, tFS-max, of a slave transceiver. This idle time is accomplished by driving the direction control line,
DIR, low. After a time, t > tFS-max, the master begins transmitting data.
Because of the indicated cross-wire fault between master and slave, the slave node receives bus signals with
reversed polarity. Assuming the slave node has just been connected to the bus, the direction-control pin is
pulled-down during power-up and then is actively driven low by the slave MCU. The polarity correction begins as
soon as the slave supply is established and ends after approximately 44 to 76 ms.

Figure 12. Polarity Correction Timing Prior to a Data Transmission
Initially the slave receiver assumes that the correct bus polarity is applied to the inputs and performs no polarity
reversal. Because of the reversed polarity of the bus-failsafe voltage, the output of the slave receiver, RS, turns
low. After tFS has passed and the receiver has detected the wrong bus polarity, the internal POLCOR logic
reverses the input signal and RS turns high.
At this point all incoming bus data with reversed polarity are polarity corrected within the transceiver. Because
polarity correction is also applied to the transmit path, the data sent by the slave MCU are reversed by the
POLCOR logic and then fed into the driver.
The reversed data from the slave MCU are reversed again by the cross-wire fault in the bus, and the correct bus
polarity is reestablished at the master end.
This process repeats each time the device powers up and detects an incorrect bus polarity.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Device Configuration
The SN65HVD888 is a half-duplex RS-485 transceiver operating from a single 5-V ±10% supply. The driver and

Figure 13. Transceiver Configurations
Using independent enable lines provides the most flexible control as the lines allow for the driver and the
receiver to be turned on and turned off individually. While this configuration requires two control lines, it allows for
selective listening to the bus traffic, whether the driver is transmitting data or not. Only this configuration allows
the SN65HVD888 to enter low-power standby mode because it allows both the driver and receiver to be disabled
simultaneously.
Combining the enable signals simplifies the interface to the controller by forming a single direction-control signal.
Thus, when the direction-control line is high, the transceiver is configured as a driver, while for a low the device
operates as a receiver.
Tying the receiver enable to ground and controlling only the driver-enable input also uses only one control line. In
this configuration a node not only receives the data on the bus sent by other nodes but also receives the data
sent on the bus, enabling the node to verify the correct data has been transmitted.
Bus Design
An RS-485 bus consists of multiple transceivers connected in parallel to a bus cable. To eliminate line
reflections, each cable end is terminated with a termination resistor, RT, whose value matches the characteristic
impedance, Z0, of the cable. This method, known as parallel termination, allows for relatively high data rates over
long cable length.
Common cables used are unshielded twisted pair (UTP), such as low-cost CAT-5 cable with Z0 = 100 Ω, and
RS-485 cable with Z0 = 120 Ω. Typical cable sizes are AWG 22 and AWG 24.
The maximum bus length is typically given as 4000 ft or 1200 m, and represents the length of an AWG 24 cable
whose cable resistance approaches the value of the termination resistance, thus reducing the bus signal by half
or 6 dB. Actual maximum usable cable length depends on the signaling rate, cable characteristics, and
environmental conditions.

An external failsafe-resistor network must be used to ensure failsafe operation during an idle bus state. When the
bus is not actively driven, the differential receiver inputs could float allowing the receiver output to assume a
random output. A proper failsafe network forces the receiver inputs to exceed the VIT threshold, thus forcing the
SN65HVD888 receiver output into the failsafe (high) state. Table 1 shows the differential input voltage (VID) for
various failsafe networks with a 54-Ω differential bus termination.

Cable Length Versus Data Rate
There is an inverse relationship between data rate and cable length, which means the higher the data rate, the
shorter the cable length; and conversely, the lower the data rate the longer the cable length. While most RS-485
systems use data rates between 10 kbps and 100 kbps, applications such as e-metering often operate at rates of
up to 250 kbps even at distances of 4000 ft and longer. Longer distances are possible by allowing for small
signal jitter of up to 5 or 10%.

Stub Length
When connecting a node to the bus, the distance between the transceiver inputs and the cable trunk, known as
the stub, should be as short as possible. The reason for the short distance is because a stub presents a nonterminated piece of bus line which can introduce reflections if the distance is too long. As a general guideline, the
electrical length or round-trip delay of a stub should be less than one-tenth of the rise time of the driver, thus
leading to a maximum physical stub length of as shown in Equation 1.
LStub ≤ 0.1 × tr × v × c
where

•
tr is the 10/90 rise time of the driver
c is the speed of light (3 × 108 m/s or 9.8 × 108 ft/s)
v is the signal velocity of the cable (v = 78%) or trace (v = 45%) as a factor of c
(1)
Based on Equation 1, with a minimum rise time of 400 ns, Equation 2 shows the maximum cable-stub length of
the SN65HVD888.

3- to 5-V Interface
Interfacing the SN65HVD888 to a 3-V controller is easy. Because the 5-V logic inputs of the transceiver accept
3-V input signals they can be directly connected to the controller I/O. The 5-V receiver output, R, however must
be level-shifted by a Schottky diode and a 10-k resistor to connect to the controller input (see Figure 16). When
R is high, the diode is reverse biased and the controller supply potential lies at the controller RxD input. When R
is low, the diode is forward biased and conducts. In this case only the diode forward voltage of 0.2 V lies at the
controller RxD input.

Noise Immunity
The input sensitivity of a standard RS-485 transceiver is ±200 mV. When the differential input voltage, VID, is
greater than +200 mV, the receiver output turns high, for VID < –200 mV the receiver outputs low.
The SN65HVD888 transceiver implements high receiver noise-immunity by providing a typical positive-going
input threshold of 35 mV and a minimum hysteresis of 40 mV. In the case of a noisy input condition therefore, a
differential noise voltage of up to 40 mVPP can be present without causing the receiver output to change states
from high to low.
Transient Protection
The bus terminals of the SN65HVD888 transceiver family possess on-chip ESD protection against ±16 kV HBM
and ±12 kV IEC61000-4-2 contact discharge. The International Electrotechnical Commision (IEC) ESD test is far
more severe than the HBM ESD test. The 50% higher charge capacitance, CS, and 78% lower discharge
resistance, RD of the IEC model produce significantly higher discharge currents than the HBM model.

The on-chip implementation of IEC ESD protection significantly increases the robustness of equipment. Common
discharge events occur because of human contact with connectors and cables. Designers may choose to
implement protection against longer duration transients, typically referred to as surge transients. Figure 9
suggests two circuit designs providing protection against short and long duration surge transients, in addition to
ESD and Electrical Fast Transients (EFT) transients. Table 2 lists the bill of materials for the external protection
devices.
EFTs are generally caused by relay-contact bounce or the interruption of inductive loads. Surge transients often
result from lightning strikes (direct strike or an indirect strike which induce voltages and currents), or the
switching of power systems, including load changes and short circuits switching. These transients are often
encountered in industrial environments, such as factory automation and power-grid systems.
Figure 18 compares the pulse-power of the EFT and surge transients with the power caused by an IEC ESD
transient. In the diagram on the left of Figure 18, the tiny blue blip in the bottom left corner represents the power
of a 10-kV ESD transient, which already dwarfs against the significantly higher EFT power spike, and certainly
dwarfs against the 500-V surge transient. This type of transient power is well representative of factory
environments in industrial and process automation. The diagram on the fright of Figure 18 compares the
enormous power of a 6-kV surge transient, most likely occurring in e-metering applications of power generating
and power grid systems, with the aforementioned 500-V surge transient.

In the case of surge transients, hgih-energy content is signified by long pulse duration and slow decaying pulse
power
The electrical energy of a transient that is dumped into the internal protection cells of the transceiver is converted
into thermal energy. This thermal energy heats the protection cells and literally destroys them, thus destroying
the transceiver. Figure 19 shows the large differences in transient energies for single ESD, EFT, and surge
transients as well as for an EFT pulse train, commonly applied during compliance testing.

Design and Layout Considerations For Transient Protection
Because ESD and EFT transients have a wide frequency bandwidth from approximately 3 MHz to 3 GHz, highfrequency layout techniques must be applied during PCB design.
In order for PCB design to be successful, begin with the design of the protection circuit in mind.
1. Place the protection circuitry close to the bus connector to prevent noise transients from penetrating your
board.
2. Use Vcc and ground planes to provide low-inductance. Note that high-frequency currents follow the path of
least inductance and not the path of least impedance.
3. Design the protection components into the direction of the signal path. Do not force the transients currents to
divert from the signal path to reach the protection device.
4. Apply 100- to 220-nF bypass capacitors as close as possible to the VCC-pins of transceiver, UART, controller
ICs on the board.
5. Use at least two vias for VCC and ground connections of bypass capacitors and protection devices to
minimize effective via-inductance.
6. Use 1- to 10-k pullup or pulldown resistors for enable lines to limit noise currents in theses lines during
transient events.
7. Insert pulse-proof resistors into the A and B bus lines if the TVS clamping voltage is higher than the specified
maximum voltage of the transceiver bus terminals. These resistors limit the residual clamping current into the
transceiver and prevent it from latching up.
– While pure TVS protection is sufficient for surge transients up to 1 kV, higher transients require metaloxide varistors (MOVs) which reduce the transients to a few-hundred volts of clamping voltage, and
transient blocking units (TBUs) that limit transient current to some 200 mA.

Isolated Bus Node Design
Many RS-485 networks use isolated bus nodes to prevent the creation of unintended ground loops and their
disruptive impact on signal integrity. An isolated bus node typically includes a micro controller that connects to
the bus transceiver through a multi-channel, digital isolator (Figure 21).

See Table 2.
Figure 21. Isolated Bus Node With Transient Protection
Power isolation is accomplished using the push-pull transformer driver SN6501 and a low-cost LDO, TLV70733.
Signal isolation uses the quadruple digital isolator ISO7241. Notice that both enable inputs, EN1 and EN2, are
pulled-up via 4.7-k resistors to limit input currents during transient events.
While the transient protection is similar to the one in Figure 20 (left circuit), an additional high-voltage capacitor
diverts transient energy from the floating RS-485 common further towards Protective Earth (PE) ground. This
diversion is necessary as noise transients on the bus are usually referred to Earth potential.
RVH refers to a high-voltage resistor, and in some applications even a varistor. This resistance is applied to
prevent charging of the floating ground to dangerous potentials during normal operation.
Occasionally varistors are used instead of resistors in order to rapidly discharge CHV, if expected that fast
transients might charge CHV to high-potentials.
Note that the PE island represents a copper island on the PCB for the provision of a short, thick Earth wire
connecting this island to PE ground at the entrance of the power supply unit (PSU).
In equipment designs using a chassis, the PE connection is usually provided through the chassis itself. Typically
the PE conductor is tied to the chassis at one end while the high-voltage components, CHV and RHV, are
connecting to the chassis at the other end.
