±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.

• Fast RS-232 Data Rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Up to 650kbps
• Low Current Shutdown Mode. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .35µA
• QFN Package Saves Board Space (ISL41387 Only)
Both RS-232, RS-485 modes feature loopback and
shutdown functions. 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

Pin Descriptions
PIN
MODE
FUNCTION
485/232
BOTH
Interface Mode Select input. 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).
RB
RS-232 Receiver output.
RS-485 Not used. Output is high impedance, and unaffected by RXEN and RXEN.
Y
RS-232 Driver output with ±15kV ESD protection.
RS-485 Inverting driver output with ±15kV ESD protection.
Z
RS-232 Driver output with ±15kV ESD protection.

NOTES:
8. 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.
9. Supply current specification is valid for loaded drivers when DEN = 0V.
10. Applies to peak current. See “Typical Performance Curves” beginning on page 18 for more information.
11. RIN defaults to RS-485 mode (>15kΩ) when the device is unpowered (VCC = 0V), or in SHDN, regardless of the state of the 485/232 pin.
12. VCC ≤ 5.25V.
13. The Slew pin has a pull-up resistor that enables only when in RS-485 mode (485/232 = VCC).
14. ON, RXEN, and DEN all simultaneously switched Low-to-High.
15. Parts are 100% tested at +25°C. Over-temperature limits established by characterization and are not production tested.

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.

ISL81387, ISL41387
ISL81387, ISL41387 Advantages
These dual protocol ICs offer many parametric
improvements versus those offered on competing dual
protocol devices. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

Evaluation Board
An evaluation board, part number ISL41387EVAL1, is
available to assist in assessing the dual protocol IC’s
performance. The evaluation board contains a QFN
packaged device, but because the same die is used in all
packages, the board is also useful for evaluating the
functionality of the other versions. The board’s design allows
for evaluation of all standard features, plus the QFN specific
features. Refer to the evaluation board application note for
details and contact your sales rep for ordering information.
