This resulted in an upgraded version of EIA RS-422, named EIA-485. EIA-485 takes into account EIA RS-422 requirements for balanced line data transmission, and allows for multiple drivers and receivers. The NM485SLC is a low power isolated differential interface providing EIA-485 compatibility. The use of a differential communications interface such as the NM485SLC allows data transmission at high rates and over long distances to be accomplished. This is because effects of external noise sources and cross talk are much less pronounced on the data signal. Any external noise source coupling onto the differential lines will appear as an extra common mode voltage which the receiver is insensitive to. The difference between the signal levels on the two lines will therefore remain the same. Similarly a change in the local ground potential at one end of the line will appear as just another change in the common mode voltage level of the signals. Twisted pair cable is commonly used for differential communications since its twisted nature tends to cause cancellation of the magnetic fields generated by the current flowing through each wire, thus reducing the effective inductance of the pair. Computer and industrial serial interfacing are areas where noise can seriously affect the integrity of data transfer, and a proven route to improve noise performance for any interface system is galvanic isolation. Galvanic isolation removes the ground loop currents from data lines and hence the impressed noise voltage which affects the signal is also eliminated. The isolation feature of the NM485SLC also means that common mode noise effects are removed and many forms of radiated noise are reduced to negligible limits. The NM485SLC has driver thermal shutdown protection which protects the device from line fault conditions. If the outputs of the driver are accidently shorted to a power supply or low impedance source, up to 250mA can flow through the part. The thermal shutdown circuit disables the driver output when the internal temperature of the I.C. reaches 150ºC and turns it back on when the temperature cools to 130ºC. If two or more NM485SLCs are used and drivers are shorted directly, the driver outputs can not supply enough current to activate the thermal shutdown. Thus the internal shutdown circuit will not prevent contention faults when two drivers are active on the same bus at the same time. Figure 1 demonstrates how the differential lines of the NM485SLC can be connected to form a transceiver. Data direction is controlled by the driver enable and receiver enable pins. This means the device can receive when the receiver enable is low and transmit when the driver enable is high. As the driver is active high, to reduce the power dissipation even further, it is advisable to disable the driver when not transmitting data. Some data encoding schemes require the output of the receiver to maintain a known state, usually a logic 1, when the data transmission is complete and all drivers are forced into three-state, high impedance. The NM485SLC receiver has a fail safe feature which guarantees the output to be in a logic 1 state when the receiver inputs are left floating (open circuit). However, when the cable is terminated with 120Ω, the differential inputs to the receiver are shorted together, not left floating. Since the receiver has about 70mV hysteresis, the output will maintain the last bit received. Implementing an isolated LONWORKS (™) network using the NM485SLC The Echleon LONWORKS (Local Operating Network) network is designed to be used in industrial applications in which other electrical equipment is operated. Often the LON(R) will be the method of controlling machinery or sensing machine activity. The environment is therefore likely to be electrically noisy and to reduce the possibility of data corruption, an isolated network communications system is a preferred method of data transfer. The EIA-485 standard provides a method of achieving multi-point (multi-drop) data transmission over balanced twisted pair transmission lines. The standard is a differential scheme offering a large degree of common mode immunity compared to single ended schemes. The isolated differential method offers the highest common mode and line noise immunity for wire based systems. The NM485SLC is a fully isolated EIA-485 standard driver and receiver, which requires only a single 5V supply. The device offers full data direction programming and can hence be configured as a transceiver. The NM485SLC can be operated at transmitting or receiving data rates of up to 2.5Mbps, hence is fully compatible with the LONTALK (™) transmission rate standards. Configuring the NM485SLC as a transceiver The NM485SLC is configured as a transceiver simply by connecting the inverting RB receive to the inverting DZ drive and the non-inverting RA receive to the non-inverting DY drive. The data direction is determined by the driver enable pins (D ENABLE and R ENABLE), the transceiver acting as a transmitter when the enable pin is high and a receiver when the enable pin is low.

A unit load is any single driver, receiver or transceiver in the EIA-485 standard, or any single node under the LONWORKS scheme. Similarly the EIA-485 standard specifies a maximum data rate standard of 10Mbps, whereas the maximum LONWORKS data rate standard is 1.25Mbps. The resultant maximum system performance for the LONWORKS EIA-485 configuration is therefore 32 nodes at 1.25Mbps. The NM485SLC isolated serial interface device supports this configuration, as well as any lower specified system. The EIA-485 standard defines the maximum line length as a function of data rate (in Mbps). This implies that the user must choose between the line length of the network and its maximum data transmission rate. The isolated interface has been used in previous configurations (e.g. NM232D) to increase the available line length as isolated data lines are much less susceptible to ground currents and variations in local supplies. The feature of isolation in a LON environment is intended to be used primarily to improve noise susceptibility, therefore, unless the line length improvements can be reliably demonstrated by the user, the EIA-485 recommendations on maximum cable length are assumed to apply. The complete hardware implementation for the LONWORKS EIA-485 network is relatively straight forward (see figure 2). There is a minimum of components required, only 1 interface part and one resistor, and the complete LONTALK transmission protocols are supported. The isolation barrier of 1000Vrms offers improved noise immunity compared to a non-isolated system and eliminates node-to-node supply voltage mismatch and possible ground current loops.

Murata Power Solutions NM485SLC series of DC/DC converters are all 100% production tested at their stated isolation voltage. This is 1000Vrms for 1 second. A question commonly asked is, “What is the continuous voltage that can be applied across the part in normal operation?” For a part holding no specific agency approvals, such as the NM485SLC series, both input and output should normally be maintained within SELV limits i.e. less than 42.4V peak, or 60VDC. The isolation test voltage represents a measure of immunity to transient voltages and the part should never be used as an element of a safety isolation system. The part could be expected to function correctly with several hundred volts offset applied continuously across the isolation barrier; but then the circuitry on both sides of the barrier must be regarded as operating at an unsafe voltage and further isolation/insulation systems must form a barrier between these circuits and any user-accessible circuitry according to safety standard requirements. REPEATED HIGH-VOLTAGE ISOLATION TESTING It is well known that repeated high-voltage isolation testing of a barrier component can actually degrade isolation capability, to a lesser or greater degree depending on materials, construction and environment. The NM485SLC series has toroidal isolation transformers, with no additional insulation between primary and secondary windings of enameled wire. While parts can be expected to withstand several times the stated test voltage, the isolation capability does depend on the wire insulation. Any material, including this enamel (typically polyurethane) is susceptible to eventual chemical degradation when subject to very high applied voltages thus implying that the number of tests should be strictly limited. We therefore strongly advise against repeated high voltage isolation testing, but if it is absolutely required, that the voltage be reduced by 20% from specified test voltage. This consideration equally applies to agency recognized parts rated for better than functional isolation where the wire enamel insulation is always supplemented by a further insulation system of physical spacing or barriers. www.murata-ps.com Technical enquiries - email: [email protected], tel: +44 (0)1908 615232 KII_NM485SLC.A02 Page 4 of 6 NM485SLC Low Power Isolated EIA-485 Driver and Receiver PACKAGE SPECIFICATIONS MECHANICAL DIMENSIONS 1.28 (32.60) MAX NM485SLC XYYWW 0.16 (4.10) 0.3 (7.60) MAX 0.02 (0.002) 0.50 (0.005) 0.1 (2.54) Weight: 5.0g All pins on a 0.1 (2.54) pitch.
