GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADM3491 is a low power differential line transceiver
designed to operate using a single +3.3 V power supply. Low
power consumption coupled with a shutdown mode make it
ideal for power sensitive applications. It is suitable for communication on multipoint bus transmission lines.

The receiver contains a fail-safe feature that results in a
logic high output state if the inputs are unconnected
(floating).
The ADM3491 is fabricated on BiCMOS, an advanced
mixed technology process combining low power CMOS
with fast switching bipolar technology.
The ADM3491 is fully specified over the industrial temperature range and is available in DIP and SOIC packages
as well as a new space saving TSSOP package.
It is intended for balanced data transmission and complies with
both EIA Standards RS-485 and RS-422. It contains a differential line driver and a differential line receiver, making it suitable
for full duplex data transfer.
The input impedance is 19 kΩ allowing up to 50 transceivers to
be connected on the bus.
Excessive power dissipation caused by bus contention or by
output shorting is prevented by a thermal shutdown circuit.
This feature forces the driver output into a high impedance state
if, during fault conditions, a significant temperature increase is
detected in the internal driver circuitry.

Receiver Output. High when A > B by 200 mV or Low when A < B by 200 mV.
Receiver Output Enable. With RE low, the receiver output RO is enabled. With RE high,
the output goes high impedance. If RE is high and DE low, the ADM3491 enters a
shutdown state.
Driver Output Enable. A high level enables the driver differential outputs, Y and Z. A low

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Differential Data Transmission
Cable and Data Rate
Differential data transmission is used to reliably transmit data at
high rates over long distances and through noisy environments.
Differential transmission nullifies the effects of ground shifts
and noise signals which appear as common-mode voltages on
the line.
Two main standards are approved by the Electronics Industries
Association (EIA) which specify the electrical characteristics of
transceivers used in differential data transmission. The RS-422
standard specifies data rates up to 10 MBaud and line lengths
up to 4000 ft. A single driver can drive a transmission line with
up to 10 receivers.
The RS-485 standard was defined to cater to true multipoint
communications. This standard meets or exceeds all the requirements of RS-422, but also allows multiple drivers and
receivers to be connected to a single bus. An extended common
mode range of –7 V to +12 V is defined.
The most significant difference between RS-422 and RS-485 is
the fact that the drivers may be disabled thereby allowing more
than one to be connected to a single line. Only one driver should
be enabled at a time, but the RS-485 standard contains additional specifications to guarantee device safety in the event of
line contention.
The transmission line of choice for RS-485 communications is a
twisted pair. Twisted pair cable tends to cancel common-mode
noise and also causes cancellation of the magnetic fields generated by the current flowing through each wire, thereby reducing
the effective inductance of the pair.
The ADM3491 is designed for bidirectional data communications on multipoint transmission lines. A typical application
showing a multipoint transmission network is illustrated in
Figure 23. Only one driver can transmit at a particular time, but
multiple receivers may be enabled simultaneously.
As with any transmission line, it is important that reflections are
minimized. This may be achieved by terminating the extreme
ends of the line using resistors equal to the characteristic impedance of the line. Stub lengths of the main line should also be
kept as short as possible. A properly terminated transmission
line appears purely resistive to the driver.
Receiver Open-Circuit Fail Safe
The receiver input includes a fail-safe feature that guarantees a
logic high on the receiver when the inputs are open circuit or
floating.
