3.3V, ±15kV ESD Protected, 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.
FN6361.0
Features
• User Selectable RS-232 or RS-485/RS-422 Interface Port
(Two RS-232 Transceivers or One RS-485/RS-422
Transceiver)
• Operates From a Single 3.3V Supply
In RS-232 mode, the on-board charge pump generates
RS-232 compliant ±5V Tx output levels, from a supply as low
as 3.15V. 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.
• ±15kV (HBM) ESD Protected Bus Pins (RS-232 or
RS-485)
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.
• Pb-Free (RoHS Compliant)
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, where
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 (30µA) mode.
The ISL3331 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.
For a dual port version of these devices, please see the
ISL3332/ISL3333 data sheet.

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 (3.3V).
VL
BOTH
Logic-Level Supply. All TTL/CMOS inputs and outputs are powered by this supply. QFN logic input pins that are externally
tied high in an application, should use the VL supply for the high voltage level. (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 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). The QFN version works in conjunction with SPB to select one of three RS-485
data rates. Internally pulled high in RS-485 mode.
SPB
RA
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.
RS-485 Noninverting driver output with ±15kV ESD protection.
C1+
RS-232 External capacitor (voltage doubler) is connected to this lead. Not needed in RS-485 Mode.
C1-
RS-232 External capacitor (voltage doubler) is connected to this lead. Not needed in RS-485 Mode.
C2+
RS-232 External capacitor (voltage inverter) is connected to this lead. Not needed in RS-485 Mode.
C2-
RS-232 External capacitor (voltage inverter) is connected to this lead. Not needed in RS-485 Mode.
V+
RS-232 Internally generated positive RS-232 transmitter supply (+5.5V). C3 not needed in RS-485 Mode.
V-
RS-232 Internally generated negative RS-232 transmitter supply (-5.5V). C4 not needed in RS-485 Mode.

NOTES:
9. 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.
10. Supply current specification is valid for loaded drivers when DEN = 0V.
11. Applies to peak current. See “Typical Performance Curves” beginning on page 19 for more information.
12. 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.
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. Parameters with MIN and/or MAX limits are 100% tested at +25°C, unless otherwise specified. Temperature limits established by characterization
and are not production tested.

Detailed Description
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. The Tx and Rx enables aren’t required,
so connect RXEN and DEN to VCC through a 1kΩ resistor.
The ISL333x 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 an 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 ISL333x don’t follow the RS-485 convention
whereby the inverting I/O is labeled “B/Z”, and the non
inverting I/O is “A/Y”. Thus, in the application diagrams,
see Figures 8 and 9, the 333x 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 that 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. See Application Note AN1401
for details about implementing a three pin, selectable
RS-232/half-duplex RS-485 port.
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.
The 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
on each bus. Because of the one driver per bus limitation,
Protocol selection is handled via the 485/232 logic pin.

ISL333x Advantages
These dual protocol ICs offer many parametric
improvements vs those offered on competing dual protocol
devices. Some of the major improvements are:
• 3.3V Supply Voltage - Eliminates the 5V supply that
powers just the interface IC
• 15kV Bus Pin ESD - Eases board level requirements
• Full Failsafe RS-485 Rx - Eliminates bus biasing
• Selectable RS-485 Data Rate - Up to 20Mbps, or slew
rate limited for low EMI and fewer termination issues
• High RS-232 Data Rate - >250kbps
• 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
• Packaging - Smaller (QFN) and Pb-free.
RS-232 Mode
RX FEATURES
DEN pin, in SHDN (see Tables 2 and 3, and the “Low Power
Shutdown (SHDN) Mode” on page 16), or when the 3.3V
power supply is off. Because RS-232 is a point-to-point (only
one Tx allowed on the bus) standard, the main use for this
DEN disable function is to reduce power by eliminating the
load current (approximately 1mA per Tx output) through the
5kΩ resistor in the Rx at the cable’s far end.
CHARGE PUMPS
The on-chip charge pumps create the RS-232 transmitter
power supplies (typically +5.7/-5.3V) from a single supply as
low as 3.15V, 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
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 (20ns) so the receivers
contribute negligibly to bit width distortion. Inputs include the
standards 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 the “Low Power Shutdown (SHDN)
Mode” on page 16), or via the active low RXEN pin available
on the QFN package option (see “ISL3331 (QFN Package)
Special Features” on page 17).
TX FEATURES
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 400kbps, and
with loads of 1000pF. The drivers are designed for low skew
(typically 12% of the 400kbps bit width), and are compliant to
the RS-232 slew rate specification (4V 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 Mode” on
page 14 for more details. Drivers disable via the active high
14
Drivers operate at data rates up to 400kbps, and are
guaranteed for data rates up to 250kbps. The charge pumps
and drivers are designed such that one driver can be
operated at the rated load, and at 250kbps (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 400kbps, 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 ISL333x 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
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 +12V and
-7V, regardless of supply voltage, making them ideal for long
networks where induced voltages are a realistic concern.
FN6361.0
May 20, 2008
ISL3330, ISL3331
Each RS-485/422 port includes a single receiver (RA), and
the unused Rx output (RB) is disabled.
Drivers are also tri-stated when the IC is in SHDN, or when
the 3.3V power supply is off.
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.
SPEED OPTIONS
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 the “Low Power
Shutdown (SHDN) Mode” on page 16). ISL3331 (QFN)
receiver outputs are also tri-statable via an active low RXEN
input (see “ISL3331 (QFN Package) Special Features” on
page 17).
For the ISL3331 (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 1.5V across a 54Ω load (RS-485), and at
least 2V across a 100Ω load (RS-422). 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 ISL333x 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 of 12V and -7V. 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°C. If the
contention persists, the thermal shutdown/re-enable cycle
repeats until the fault is cleared. Receivers stay operational
during thermal shutdown.
The RS-485 multi-driver operation also requires drivers to
include tri-state functionality, where 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 to VCC through a 1kΩ resistor.
15
The ISL3330 (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
ISL3331 (QFN) offers an additional, more slew rate limited,
option for data rates up to 115kbps (Slow). See the “Data
Rate“ 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 ISL333x
versions offer an edge rate capable of 20Mbps data rates.
They both have a second option for 460kbps, but the
ISL3331 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 the “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.

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 (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.
disables the charge pumps if the port is in RS-232 mode, so
V+ collapses to VCC, and V- collapses to GND.
All but 10µA of SHDN ICC current is due to control input
(SPB, SLEW) pull-up resistors (~10µA/resistor), so SHDN
ICC varies depending on the ISL333x 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.
ISL3330
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.

FIGURE 10. ILLUSTRATION OF FLOW-THROUGH PINOUT
High ESD
All pins on the ISL333x include ESD protection structures
rated at ±2.5kV (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. ISL333x 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
Competing 3.3V dual protocol ICs are available only in a
20 Ld or 24 Ld SSOP. The ISL3331’s tiny 6mmx6mm QFN
footprint is 36% to 44% smaller than the competing SSOPs.
Flow-Through Pinouts
Even the ISL333x 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.
Low Power Shutdown (SHDN) Mode
The ISL333x 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 10µA. SHDN disables the Tx and Rx outputs, and
16
When enabling from SHDN in RS-232 mode, allow at least
25µs 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, thus the transceiver is ready to send or
receive data in less than 2µs, 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 Circuits” 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.
Note that the loopback mode uses an additional set of
receivers, as shown in the “Typical Operating Circuits” 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. See Application Note
AN1401 for specific details on implementing a 3-pin, half
duplex, dual protocol port.

ISL3330, ISL3331
ISL3331 (QFN Package) Special Features
Logic Supply (VL Pin)
The ISL3331 (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 many of these devices use
power supplies significantly lower than 3.3V. Thus, a 3.3V
output level from a 3.3V powered dual protocol IC might
seriously overdrive and damage the logic device input.
Similarly, the logic device’s low VOH might not exceed the
VIH of a 3.3V powered dual protocol input. Connecting the
VL pin to the power supply of the logic device (as shown in
Figure 11) limits the ISL3331’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.

Note: With VL ≤ 1.6V, the ISL3331 may not operate at the full
data rate unless the logic signal VIL is at least 0.2V below
the typical value listed in Table 5.
The VL supply current (IL) is typically less than 35µA, 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 ~10µA, so the IL in Figure 19 drops
by about 18µA (at VL = 3.3V) 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.
Thus, to minimize power dissipation, drive these inputs high
when unneeded (e.g., SPB isn’t used in RS-232 mode, so
drive it high).
QFN logic input pins that are externally tied high in an
application, should use the VL supply for the high voltage
level.
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.

VL can be anywhere from VCC down to 1.2V, but the input

various VL voltages so the user can ascertain whether or not
a particular VL voltage meets his needs.

The ISL333x 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
ISL3331 (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 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. 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 preferable
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.

Evaluation Board
An evaluation board, part number ISL3331EVAL1Z, 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 representative for ordering
information.
