ISL81387, ISL41387 ® Data Sheet November 21, 2007 ±15kV ESD Protected, 5V, Dual Protocol (RS-232/RS-485) Transceivers These devices are BiCMOS interface ICs that are user configured as either a single RS-422, RS-485 differential transceiver, or as a dual (2 Tx, 2 Rx) RS-232 transceiver. In RS-232 mode, the on-board charge pump generates RS-232 compliant ±5V Tx output levels, from a supply as low as 4.5V. Four small 0.1µF capacitors are required for the charge pump. The transceivers are RS-232 compliant, with the Rx inputs handling up to ±25V, and the Tx outputs handling ±12V. In RS-485 mode, the transceivers support both the RS-485 and RS-422 differential communication standards. The RS-485 receiver features "full failsafe" operation, so the Rx output remains in a high state if the inputs are open or shorted together. The RS-485 transmitter supports up to three data rates, two of which are slew rate limited for problem free communications. The charge pump disables in RS-485 mode, thereby saving power, minimizing noise, and eliminating the charge pump capacitors.

The loopback mode internally connects the Tx outputs to the corresponding Rx input, which facilitates the implementation of board level self test functions. The outputs remain connected to the loads during loopback, so connection problems (e.g., shorted connectors or cables) can be detected. The shutdown mode disables the Tx and Rx outputs, disables the charge pump if in RS-232 mode, and places the IC in a low current (20µA) mode. The ISL41387 is a QFN packaged device that offers additional functionality, including a lower speed and edge rate option (115kbps) for EMI sensitive designs, or to allow longer bus lengths. It also features a logic supply voltage pin (VL) that sets the VOH level of logic outputs, and the switching points of logic inputs, to be compatible with another supply voltage in mixed voltage systems. The QFN's choice of active high or low Rx enable pins increases design flexibility, allowing Tx/Rx direction control via a single signal by connecting DEN and RXEN together. • Logic Supply Pin (VL) Eases Operation in Mixed Supply Systems (ISL41387 Only) Applications • Gaming Applications (e.g., Slot machines) • Single Board Computers • Factory Automation • Security Networks • Industrial/Process Control Networks • Level Translators (e.g., RS-232 to RS-422) • Point of Sale Equipment For a dual port version of these devices, please see the ISL81334, ISL41334 data sheet.

High for RS-485 Mode and low for RS-232 Mode. DEN BOTH Driver output enable. The driver outputs, Y and Z, are enabled by bringing DEN high. They are high impedance when DEN is low. GND BOTH Ground connection. NC BOTH No Connection. ON BOTH In RS-232 mode only, ON high enables the charge pumps. ON low, with DEN and RXEN low (and RXEN high if QFN), turns off the charge pumps (in RS-232 mode), and in either mode places the device in low power shutdown. In both modes, when ON is low, and DEN is high, and RXEN is high or RXEN is low, loopback is enabled. RXEN BOTH Receiver output enable. Rx is enabled when RXEN is high; Rx is high impedance when RXEN is low and, if using the QFN package, RXEN is high. When using the QFN and the active high Rx enable function, RXEN should be high or floating. RXEN BOTH Active low receiver output enable. Rx is enabled when RXEN is low; Rx is high impedance when RXEN is high and RXEN is low. (i.e., to use active low Rx enable function, tie RXEN to GND). For single signal Tx/Rx direction control, connect RXEN to DEN. Internally pulled high. (QFN only) VCC BOTH System power supply input (5V). VL BOTH Logic-Level Supply. All TTL/CMOS inputs and outputs are powered by this supply. (QFN only) A RS-232 Receiver input with ±15kV ESD protection. A low on A forces RA high; a high on A forces RA low. RS-485 Inverting receiver input with ±15kV ESD protection. B RS-232 Receiver input with ±15kV ESD protection. A low on B forces RB high; a high on B forces RB low. RS-485 Noninverting receiver input with ±15kV ESD protection. DY RS-232 Driver input. A low on DY forces output Y high. Similarly, a high on DY forces output Y low. RS-485 Driver input. A low on DY forces output Y high and output Z low. Similarly, a high on DY forces output Y low and output Z high. DZ SLEW SPB RA RS-232 Driver input. A low on DZ forces output Z high. Similarly, a high on DZ forces output Z low. RS-485 Slew rate control. With the SLEW pin high, the drivers run at the maximum slew rate (20Mbps). With the SLEW pin low, the drivers run at a reduced slew rate (460kbps). On the QFN version, works in conjunction with SPB to select one of three RS-485 data rates. Internally pulled high in RS-485 mode. RS-485 Speed control. Works in conjunction with the SLEW pin to select the 20Mbps, 460kbps or 115kbps RS-485 data rate. Internally pulled high. (QFN only) RS-232 Receiver output. RS-485 Receiver output: If B > A by at least -40mV, RA is high; If B < A by -200mV or more, RA is low; RA = High if A and B are unconnected (floating) or shorted together (i.e., full fail-safe).

MEASUREMENT POINTS FIGURE 7. RS-232 RECEIVER PROPAGATION DELAY 12 FN6201.3 November 21, 2007 ISL81387, ISL41387 Detailed Description on each bus. Because of the one driver per bus limitation, RS-422 networks use a two bus, full duplex structure for bidirectional communication, and the Rx inputs and Tx outputs (no tri-state required) connect to different busses, as shown in Figure 9. Tx and Rx enables aren’t required, so connect RXEN and DEN to VCC through a 1kΩ resistor. The ISL81387, ISL41387 port supports dual protocols: RS-485, RS-422, and RS-232. RS-485 and RS-422 are differential (balanced) data transmission standards for use in high speed (up to 20Mbps) networks, or long haul and noisy environments. The differential signalling, coupled with RS-485’s requirement for extended common mode range (CMR) of +12V to -7V make these transceivers extremely tolerant of ground potential differences, as well as voltages induced in the cable by external fields. Both of these effects are real concerns when communicating over the RS-485, RS-422 maximum distance of 4000’ (1220m). It is important to note that the ISL81387, ISL41387 don’t follow the RS-485 convention whereby the inverting I/O is labelled “B/Z”, and the non-inverting I/O is “A/Y”. Thus, in the following application diagrams, the 1387 A/Y (B/Z) pins connect to the B/Z (A/Y) pins of the generic RS-485, RS-422 ICs. Conversely, RS-485 is a true multipoint standard, which allows up to 32 devices (any combination of drivers- must be tri-statable - and receivers) on each bus. Now bidirectional communication takes place on a single bus, so the Rx inputs and Tx outputs of a port connect to the same bus lines, as shown in Figure 8. A port set to RS-485, RS-422 mode includes one Rx and one Tx. RS-232 is a point-to-point, singled ended (signal voltages referenced to GND) communication protocol targeting fairly short (<150’, 46m) and low data rate (<1Mbps) applications. A port contains two transceivers (2 Tx and 2 Rx) in RS-232 mode. RS-422 is typically a point-to-point (one driver talking to one receiver on a bus), or a point-to-multipoint (multidrop) standard that allows only one driver and up to 10 receivers Protocol selection is handled via the 485/232 logic pin. + GENERIC 1/2 DUPLEX 485 XCVR +5V VCC R RE DI +5V B 0.1µF + VCC GND VCC RO R B/Z RE Tx/Rx A/Y DEN DY GENERIC 1/2 DUPLEX 485 XCVR +5V D R 0.1μF A RXEN * DE 0.1µF + ISL81387, ISL41387 RA RO D DE B/Z Y D A/Y Z GND RT RT DI GND *QFN ONLY, CONNECT RXEN TO GND FIGURE 8.

Some of the major improvements are: • 15kV Bus Pin ESD - Eases board level requirements • 2.7V Diff VOUT - Better Noise immunity and/or distance • Full Failsafe RS-485 Rx - Eliminates bus biasing • Selectable RS-485 Data Rate - Up to 20Mbps, or slewrate limited for low EMI and fewer termination issues • High RS-232 Data Rate - >460kbps • Lower Tx and Rx Skews - Wider, consistent bit widths • Lower ICC - Max ICC is 2x to 4x lower than competition • Flow-Thru Pinouts - Tx, Rx bus pins on one side/logic pins on the other, for easy routing to connector/UART • Smaller (SSOP and QFN) and Pb-free packaging RS-232 Mode RX FEATURES RS-232 receivers invert and convert RS-232 input levels (±3V to ±25V) to the standard TTL/CMOS levels required by a UART, ASIC, or µcontroller serial port. Receivers are designed to operate at faster data rates than the drivers, and they feature very low skews (10ns) so the receivers contribute negligibly to bit width distortion. Inputs include the standard required 3kΩ to 7kΩ pull-down resistor, so unused inputs may be left unconnected. Rx inputs also have built-in hysteresis to increase noise immunity, and to decrease erroneous triggering due to slowly transitioning input signals. Rx outputs are short circuit protected, and are tri-statable via the active high RXEN pin, when the IC is shutdown (SHDN; see Tables 2 and 3, and “Low Power Shutdown (SHDN) Mode” on page 16), or via the active low RXEN pin available on the QFN package option (see“ISL41387 (QFN Package) Special Features” on page 17 for more details). TX FEATURES (see Tables 2 and 3, and “Low Power Shutdown (SHDN) Mode” on page 16), or when the 5V power supply is off. CHARGE PUMPS The on-chip charge pumps create the RS-232 transmitter power supplies (typically +6/-7V) from a single supply as low as 4.5V, and are enabled only if the port is configured for RS-232 operation, and not in SHDN. The efficient design requires only four small 0.1µF capacitors for the voltage doubler and inverter functions. By operating discontinuously (i.e., turning off as soon as V+ and V- pump up to the nominal values), the charge pump contribution to RS-232 mode ICC is reduced significantly. Unlike competing devices that require the charge pump in RS-485 mode, disabling the charge pump saves power, and minimizes noise. If the application is a dedicated RS-485 port, then the charge pump capacitors aren’t even required. DATA RATES AND CABLING Drivers operate at data rates up to 650kbps, and are guaranteed for data rates up to 460kbps. The charge pumps and drivers are designed such that one driver can be operated at the rated load, and at 460kbps (see Figure 33). Figure 33 also shows that drivers can easily drive several thousands of picofarads at data rates up to 250kbps, while still delivering compliant ±5V output levels. Receivers operate at data rates up to 2Mbps. They are designed for a higher data rate to facilitate faster factory downloading of software into the final product, thereby improving the user’s manufacturing throughput. Figures 36 and 37 illustrate driver and receiver waveforms at 250kbps, and 500kbps, respectively. For these graphs, one driver drives the specified capacitive load, and a receiver. RS-232 doesn’t require anything special for cabling; just a single bus wire per transmitter and receiver, and another wire for GND. So an ISL81387, ISL41387 RS-232 port uses a five conductor cable for interconnection. Bus terminations are not required, nor allowed, by the RS-232 standard. RS-485 Mode RS-232 drivers invert and convert the standard TTL/CMOS levels from a UART, or µcontroller serial port to RS-232 compliant levels (±5V minimum). The Tx delivers these compliant output levels even at data rates of 650kbps, and with loads of 1000pF. The drivers are designed for low skew (typically 12% of the 500kbps bit width), and are compliant to the RS-232 slew rate spec (4V/µs to 30V/µs) for a wide range of load capacitances. Tx inputs float if left unconnected, and may cause ICC increases. For the best results, connect unused inputs to GND. Tx outputs are short circuit protected, and incorporate a thermal SHDN feature to protect the IC in situations of severe power dissipation. See the RS-485 section for more details. Drivers tri-state via the active high DEN pin, in SHDN 14 RX FEATURES RS-485 receivers convert differential input signals as small as 200mV, as required by the RS-485 and RS-422 standards, to TTL/CMOS output levels. The differential Rx provides maximum sensitivity, noise immunity, and common mode rejection. Per the RS-485 standard, receiver inputs function with common mode voltages as great as ±7V outside the power supplies (i.e., +12V and -7V), making them ideal for long networks where induced voltages are a realistic concern. Each RS-485, RS-422 port includes a single receiver (RA), and the unused Rx output (RB) is disabled. FN6201.3 November 21, 2007 ISL81387, ISL41387 Worst case receiver input currents are 20% lower than the 1 “unit load” (1mA) RS-485 limit, which translates to a 15kΩ minimum input resistance. These receivers include a “full fail-safe” function that guarantees a high level receiver output if the receiver inputs are unconnected (floating), shorted together, or if the bus is terminated but undriven (i.e., differential voltage collapses to near zero due to termination). Failsafe with shorted, or terminated and undriven inputs is accomplished by setting the Rx upper switching point at -40mV, thereby ensuring that the Rx recognizes a 0V differential as a high level. All the Rx outputs are short circuit protected, and are tri-statable via the active high RXEN pin, or when the IC is shutdown (see Tables 2 and 3, and “Low Power Shutdown (SHDN) Mode” on page 16). ISL41387 (QFN) receiver outputs are also tri-statable via an active low RXEN input (see “ISL41387 (QFN Package) Special Features” on page 17 for more details). For the ISL41387 (QFN), when using the active high RXEN function, the RXEN pin may be left floating (internally pulled high), or should be connected to VCC through a 1kΩ resistor. If using the active low RXEN, then the RXEN pin must be connected to GND. TX FEATURES The RS-485, RS-422 driver is a differential output device that delivers at least 2.2V across a 54Ω load (RS-485), and at least 2.5V across a 100Ω load (RS-422). Both levels significantly exceed the standards requirements, and these exceptional output voltages increase system noise immunity, and/or allow for transmission over longer distances. The drivers feature low propagation delay skew to maximize bit widths, and to minimize EMI. To allow multiple drivers on a bus, the RS-485 specification requires that drivers survive worst case bus contentions undamaged. The ISL81387, ISL41387 drivers meet this requirement via driver output short circuit current limits, and on-chip thermal shutdown circuitry. The output stages incorporate current limiting circuitry that ensures that the output current never exceeds the RS-485 specification, even at the common mode voltage range extremes. In the event of a major short circuit condition, devices also include a thermal shutdown feature that disables the drivers whenever the die temperature becomes excessive. This eliminates the power dissipation, allowing the die to cool. The drivers automatically re-enable after the die temperature drops about 15°. If the contention persists, the thermal shutdown/re-enable cycle repeats until the fault is cleared. Receivers stay operational during thermal shutdown. RS-485 multi-driver operation also requires drivers to include tri-state functionality, so the port has a DEN pin to control this function. If the driver is used in an RS-422 network, such that driver tri-state isn’t required, then the DEN pin should connect 15 to VCC through a 1kΩ resistor. Drivers are also tri-stated when the IC is in SHDN, or when the 5V power supply is off. SPEED OPTIONS The ISL81387 (SOIC/SSOP) features two speed options that are user selectable via the SLEW pin: a high slew rate setting optimized for 20Mbps data rates (Fast), and a slew rate limited option for operation up to 460kbps (Med). The ISL41387 (QFN) offers an additional, more slew rate limited, option for data rates up to 115kbps (Slow). See “Data Rate, Cables and Terminations” on page 15 and “RS-485 Slew Rate Limited Data Rates” on page 17 for more information. Receiver performance is the same for all three speed options. DATA RATE, CABLES AND TERMINATIONS RS-485, RS-422 are intended for network lengths up to 4000’ (1220m), but the maximum system data rate decreases as the transmission length increases. Devices operating at the maximum data rate of 20Mbps are limited to lengths of 20’ to 30’ (6m to 9m), while devices operating at or below 115kbps can operate at the maximum length of 4000’ (1220m). Higher data rates require faster edges, so both the ISL81387, ISL41387 versions offer an edge rate capable of 20Mbps data rates. They both have a second option for 460kbps, but the ISL41387 also offers another, very slew rate limited, edge rate to minimize problems at slow data rates. Nevertheless, for the best jitter performance when driving long cables, the faster speed settings may be preferable, even at low data rates. See “RS-485 Slew Rate Limited Data Rates” on page 17 for details. Twisted pair is the cable of choice for RS-485, RS-422 networks. Twisted pair cables tend to pick up noise and other electromagnetically induced voltages as common mode signals, which are effectively rejected by the differential receivers in these ICs. The preferred cable connection technique is “daisy-chaining”, where the cable runs from the connector of one device directly to the connector of the next device, such that cable stub lengths are negligible. A “backbone” structure, where stubs run from the main backbone cable to each device’s connector, is the next best choice, but care must be taken to ensure that each stub is electrically “short”. See Table 4 for recommended maximum stub lengths for each speed option. TABLE 4. RECOMMENDED STUB LENGTHS SPEED OPTION MAXIMUM STUB LENGTH ft (m) SLOW 350 to 500 (107 to 152) MED 100 to 150 (30.5 to 46) FAST 1 to 3 (0.3 to 0.9) FN6201.3 November 21, 2007 ISL81387, ISL41387 In point-to-point, or point-to-multipoint (RS-422) networks, the main cable should be terminated in its characteristic impedance (typically 120Ω) at the end farthest from the driver. In multi-receiver applications, stubs connecting receivers to the main cable should be kept as short as possible, but definitely shorter than the limits shown in Table 4. Multipoint (RS-485) systems require that the main cable be terminated in its characteristic impedance at both ends. Again, keep stubs connecting a transceiver to the main cable as short as possible, and refer to Table 4. Avoid “star”, and other configurations, where there are many “ends” which would require more than the two allowed terminations to prevent reflections. Low Power Shutdown (SHDN) Mode The ISL81387, ISL41387 enter the SHDN mode when ON = 0, and the Tx and Rx are disabled (DEN = 0, RXEN = 0, and RXEN = 1), and the already low supply current drops to as low as 5µA. SHDN disables the Tx and Rx outputs, and disables the charge pumps if the port is in RS-232 mode, so V+ collapses to VCC, and V- collapses to GND. All but 5µA of SHDN ICC current is due to control input (SPB, SLEW) pull-up resistors (~20µA/resistor), so SHDN ICC varies depending on the ISL81387, ISL41387 configuration. The specification tables indicate the worst case values, but careful selection of the configuration yields lower currents. For example, in RS-232 mode the SPB pin isn’t used, so floating it or tying it high minimizes SHDN ICC. ISL81387 CONNECTOR Proper termination is imperative to minimize reflections when using the 20Mbps speed option. Short networks using the medium and slow speed options need not be terminated, but terminations are recommended unless power dissipation is an overriding concern. Note that the RS-485 specification allows a maximum of two terminations on a network, otherwise the Tx output voltage may not meet the required VOD. A B Y Z R RA D High ESD All pins on the ISL81387, ISL41387 include ESD protection structures rated at ±4kV (HBM), which is good enough to survive ESD events commonly seen during manufacturing. But the bus pins (Tx outputs and Rx inputs) are particularly vulnerable to ESD events because they connect to an exposed port on the exterior of the finished product. Simply touching the port pins, or connecting a cable, can destroy an unprotected port. ISL81387, ISL41387 bus pins are fitted with advanced structures that deliver ESD protection in excess of ±15kV (HBM), without interfering with any signal in the RS-485 or the RS-232 range. This high level of protection may eliminate the need for board level protection, or at the very least will increase the robustness of any board level scheme. Small Packages Many competing dual protocol ICs are available only in monstrously large 24 to 28 Ld SOIC packages. The ISL81387’s 20 Ld SSOP is more than 50% smaller than even a 24 Ld SOIC, and the ISL41387’s tiny 6mmx6mm QFN is 80% smaller than a 28 Ld SOIC. Flow Through Pinouts Even the ISL81387, ISL41387 pinouts are features, in that the “flow-through” design simplifies board layout. Having the bus pins all on one side of the package for easy routing to a cable connector, and the Rx outputs and Tx inputs on the other side for easy connection to a UART, avoids costly and problematic crossovers. Figure 10 illustrates the flow-through nature of the pinout. 16 DY UART OR ASIC OR µCONTROLLER FIGURE 10. ILLUSTRATION OF FLOW THROUGH PINOUT On the ISL41387, the SHDN ICC increases as VL decreases. VL powers each control pin input stage and sets its VOH at VL rather than VCC. VCC powers the second stage, but the second stage input isn’t driven to the rail, so some ICC current flows. See Figure 20 for details. When enabling from SHDN in RS-232 mode, allow at least 20µs for the charge pumps to stabilize before transmitting data. If fast enables are required, and ICC isn’t the greatest concern, disable the drivers with the DEN pin to keep the charge pumps active. The charge pumps aren’t used in RS-485 mode, so the transceiver is ready to send or receive data in less than 1µs, which is much faster than competing devices that require the charge pump for all modes of operation. Internal Loopback Mode Setting ON = 0, DEN = 1, and RXEN = 1 or RXEN = 0 (QFN only), places the port in the loopback mode, a mode that facilitates implementing board level self test functions. In loopback, internal switches disconnect the Rx inputs from the Rx outputs, and feed back the Tx outputs to the appropriate Rx output. This way the data driven at the Tx input appears at the corresponding Rx output (refer to “Typical Operating Circuit” on page 6). The Tx outputs remain connected to their terminals, so the external loads are reflected in the loopback performance. This allows the loopback function to potentially detect some common bus faults such as one or both driver outputs shorted to GND, or outputs shorted together. FN6201.3 November 21, 2007 ISL81387, ISL41387 Note that the loopback mode uses an additional set of receivers, as shown in “Typical Operating Circuit” on page 6. These loopback receivers are not standards compliant, so the loopback mode can’t be used to implement a half-duplex RS-485 transceiver. VL can be anywhere from VCC down to 1.65V, but the input switching points may not provide enough noise margin when VL < 1.8V. Table 5 indicates typical VIH and VIL values for various VL values so the user can ascertain whether or not a particular VL voltage meets his or her needs. ISL41387 (QFN Package) Special Features TABLE 5. VIH AND VIL vs VL FOR VCC = 5V Logic Supply (VL Pin) The ISL41387 (QFN) includes a VL pin that powers the logic inputs (Tx inputs and control pins) and Rx outputs. These pins interface with “logic” devices such as UARTs, ASICs, and μcontrollers, and today most of these devices use power supplies significantly lower than 5V. Thus, a 5V output level from a 5V powered dual protocol IC might seriously overdrive and damage the logic device input. Similarly, the the logic device’s low VOH might not exceed the VIH of a 5V powered dual protocol input. Connecting the VL pin to the power supply of the logic device (as shown in Figure 11) limits the ISL41387’s Rx output VOH to VL (see Figure 14), and reduces the Tx and control input switching points to values compatible with the logic device output levels. Tailoring the logic pin input switching points and output levels to the supply voltage of the UART, ASIC, or μcontroller eliminates the need for a level shifter/translator between the two ICs. VCC = +5V RA DY GND VCC = +2V VOH = 5V RXD VIH ≥ 2V VOH ≤ 2V ISL81387 TXD GND UART/PROCESSOR VCC = +5V VCC = +2V RA DY VIH (V) VIL (V) 1.65V 0.79 0.50 1.8V 0.82 0.60 2.0V 0.87 0.69 2.5V 0.99 0.86 3.3V 1.19 1.05 The VL supply current (IL) is typically less than 60µA, as shown in Figures 19 and 20. All of the DC VL current is due to inputs with internal pull-up resistors (SPB, SLEW, RXEN) being driven to the low input state. The worst case IL current occurs when all three of the inputs are low (see Figure 19), due to the IL through the pull-up resistors. IIL through an input pull-up resistor is ~20µA, so the IL in Figure 19 drops by about 40µA (at VL = 5V) when the SPB is high and 232 mode disables the SLEW pin pull-up (middle vs top curve). When all three inputs are driven high, IL drops to ~10nA, so to minimize power dissipation drive these inputs high when unneeded (e.g., SPB isn’t used in RS-232 mode, so drive it high). Active Low Rx Enable (RXEN) In many RS-485 applications, especially half duplex configurations, users like to accomplish “echo cancellation” by disabling the corresponding receiver while its driver is transmitting data. This function is available on the QFN package via an active low RXEN pin. The active low function also simplifies direction control, by allowing a single Tx/Rx direction control line. If the active high RXEN were used, either two valuable I/O pins would be used for direction control, or an external inverter is required between DEN and RXEN. Figure 12 details the advantage of using the RXEN pin. When using RXEN, ensure that RXEN is tied to GND.

USING VL PIN TO ADJUST LOGIC LEVELS 17 The ISL81387, ISL41387 FAST speed option (SLEW = High) utilizes Tx output transitions optimized for a 20Mbps data rate. These fast edges may increase EMI and reflection issues, even though fast transitions aren’t required at the lower data rates used by many applications. With the SLEW pin low, both product types switch to a moderately slew rate limited output transition targeted for 460kbps (MED) data rates. The ISL41387 (QFN version) offers an additional, slew rate limited data rate that is optimized for 115kbps (SLOW), and is selected when SLEW = 0 and SPB = 0 (see Table 3). The slew limited edges permit longer unterminated networks, or longer stubs off terminated busses, and help FN6201.3 November 21, 2007 ISL81387, ISL41387 minimize EMI and reflections. Nevertheless, for the best jitter performance when driving long cables, the faster speed options may be preferable, even at lower data rates. The faster output transitions deliver less variability (jitter) when loaded with the large capacitance associated with long cables. Figures 42, 43, and 44 detail the jitter performance of the three speed options while driving three different cable lengths. The figures show that under all conditions the faster the edge rate, the better the jitter performance. Of course, faster transitions require more attention to ensuring short stub lengths, and quality terminations, so there are trade-offs to be made. Assuming a jitter budget of 10%, it is likely better to go with the slow speed option for data rates of 115kbps or less, to minimize fast edge effects. Likewise, the medium speed option is a good choice for data rates between 115kbps and 460kbps. For higher data rates, or when the absolute best jitter is required, use the high speed option. 1kΩ OR NC + RXEN * VCC RA Tx/Rx 0.1µF B R RXEN A DEN Y DY Z D GND ACTIVE HIGH RX ENABLE ISL41387 +5V + VCC RXEN RA 0.1µF B R RXEN * A DEN Y Tx/Rx Evaluation Board An evaluation board, part number ISL41387EVAL1, is available to assist in assessing the dual protocol IC’s performance.
