Receiver Enable and Disable Times Date: 05/10/04 SP490/491 Full Duplex RS-485 Transceivers 6 © Copyright 2004 Sipex Corporation The driver of the SP491 has a driver enable control line which is active high. A logic high on DE (pin 4) of the SP491 will enable the differential driver outputs. A logic low on DE (pin 4) of the SP491 will tri-state the driver outputs. The SP490 does not have a driver enable. DESCRIPTION The SP490 and SP491 are full-duplex differential transceivers that meet the requirements of RS-485 and RS-422. Fabricated with a Sipex proprietary BiCMOS process, both products require a fraction of the power of older bipolar designs. Receiver... The RS-485 standard is ideal for multi-drop applications or for long-distance interfaces. RS-485 allows up to 32 drivers and 32 receivers to be connected to a data bus, making it an ideal choice for multi-drop applications. Since the cabling can be as long as 4,000 feet, RS-485 transceivers are equipped with a wide (-7V to +12V) common mode range to accommodate ground potential differences. Because RS-485 is a differential interface, data is virtually immune to noise in the transmission line. The receivers for both the SP490 and SP491 have differential inputs with an input sensitivity as low as ±200mV. Input impedance of the receivers is typically 15KΩ (12KΩ minimum). A wide common mode range of -7V to +12V allows for large ground potential differences between systems. The receivers for both the SP490 and SP491 are equipped with the fail-safe feature. Fail-safe guarantees that the receiver output will be in a high state when the input is left unconnected. Driver... The receiver of the SP491 has a receiver enable control line which is active low. A logic low on REB (pin 3) of the SP491 will enable the differential receiver. A logic high on REB (pin 3) of the SP491 will tri-state the receiver. The drivers for both the SP490 and SP491 have differential outputs. The typical voltage output swing with no load will be 0 volts to +5 volts. With worst case loading of 54Ω across the differential outputs, the driver can maintain greater than 1.5V voltage levels.
