LTC2854/LTC2855 3.3V 20Mbps RS485/RS422 Transceivers with Integrated Switchable Termination DESCRIPTION FEATURES ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ The LTC®2854 and LTC2855 are low power, 20Mbps RS485/RS422 transceivers operating on 3.3V supplies. The receiver includes a logic-selectable 120Ω termination, one-eighth unit load supporting up to 256 nodes per bus (C, I-Grade), and a failsafe feature that guarantees a high output state under conditions of floating or shorted inputs. Integrated, Logic-Selectable 120Ω Termination Resistor 3.3V Supply Voltage 20Mbps Maximum Data Rate No Damage or Latchup Up to ±25kV HBM High Input Impedance Supports 256 Nodes (C, I-Grade) Operation Up to 125°C (H-Grade) Guaranteed Failsafe Receiver Operation Over the Entire Common Mode Range Current Limited Drivers and Thermal Shutdown Delayed Micropower Shutdown: 5μA Maximum (C, I-Grade) Power Up/Down Glitch-Free Driver Outputs Low Operating Current: 370μA Typical in Receive Mode Compatible with TIA/EIA-485-A Specifications Available in 10-Pin 3mm × 3mm DFN, 12-Pin 4mm × 3mm DFN and 16-Pin SSOP Packages The driver maintains a high output impedance over the entire common mode range when disabled or when the supply is removed. Excessive power dissipation caused by bus contention or a fault is prevented by current limiting all outputs and by a thermal shutdown. Enhanced ESD protection allows the LTC2854 to withstand ±25kV (human body model) and the LTC2855 to withstand ±15kV on the transceiver interface pins without latchup or damage.

If the receiver output is enabled (⎯R⎯E low) and A > B by 200mV, then RO will be high. If A < B by 200mV, then RO will be low. If the receiver inputs are open, shorted, or terminated without a signal, RO will be high. ⎯R⎯E (Pin 2): Receiver Enable. A low enables the receiver. A high input forces the receiver output into a high impedance state. DE (Pin 3): Driver Enable. A high on DE enables the driver. A low input will force the driver outputs into a high impedance. If ⎯R⎯E is high with DE and TE low, the part will enter a low power shutdown state. DI (Pin 4): Driver Input. If the driver outputs are enabled (DE high), then a low on DI forces the driver positive output low and negative output high. A high on DI, with the driver outputs enabled, forces the driver positive output high and negative output low. TE (Pin 5): Internal Termination Resistance Enable. A high input will connect a termination resistor (120Ω typical) between pins A and B. GND (Pins 6,11/6,13/6): Ground. Pins 11 and 13 are backside thermal pad, connected to Ground. Y (Pins NA/8/12): Positive Driver Output for LTC2855. Z (Pins NA/9/13): Negative Driver Output for LTC2855. B (Pins 9/10/14): Negative Receiver Input (and Negative Driver Output for LTC2854). A (Pins 8/11/15): Positive Receiver Input (and Positive Driver Output for LTC2854). VCC (Pins 10/12/16): Positive Supply. VCC = 3.0V < VCC < 3.6V.

When enabled, if DI is high, Y-Z is positive for the full-duplex device (LTC2855) and A-B is positive for the half-duplex device (LTC2854). When the driver is disabled, both outputs are highimpedance. For the full-duplex LTC2855, the leakage on the driver output pins is guaranteed to be less than 10μA over the entire common mode range of –7V to +12V. On the half-duplex LTC2854, the impedance is dominated by the receiver input resistance, RIN. Driver Overvoltage and Overcurrent Protection The driver outputs are protected from short-circuits to any voltage within the Absolute Maximum range of (VCC –15V) to +15V. The typical peak current in this condition does not exceed 180mA. If a high driver output is shorted to a voltage just above VCC , a reverse current will flow into the supply. When this voltage exceeds VCC by about 1.4V, the reverse current turns off. Preventing the driver from turning off with outputs shorted to output voltages just above VCC keeps the driver active even for receiver loads that have a positive common mode with respect to the driver — a valid condition. The worst-case peak reverse short-circuit current can be as high as 300mA in extreme cold conditions. If this current cannot be absorbed by the supply, a 3.6V Zener diode can be added in parallel with the supply to sink this current. the inputs are either shorted, left open, or terminated (externally or internally), but not driven. This failsafe feature is guaranteed to work for inputs spanning the entire common mode range of –7V to +12V. The receiver output is internally driven high (to VCC) or low (to ground) with no external pull-up needed. When the receiver is disabled the RO pin becomes high-Z with leakage of less than ±1μA for voltages within the supply range. Receiver Input Resistance The receiver input resistance from A or B to ground is guaranteed to be greater than 96k (C, I-Grade) when the termination is disabled. This is 8X higher than the requirements for the RS485 standard and thus this receiver represents a one-eighth unit load. This, in turn, means that 8X the standard number of receivers, or 256 total, can be connected to a line without loading it beyond what is called out in the RS485 standard. The receiver input resistance from A or B to ground on high temperature H-Grade parts is greater than 48k providing a one-quarter unit load. The input resistance of the receivers is unaffected by enabling/ disabling the receiver and by powering/unpowering the part. The equivalent input resistance looking into A and B is shown in Figure 9. The termination resistor cannot be enabled by TE if the device is unpowered or in thermal shutdown mode. >96kΩ A All devices also feature thermal shutdown protection that disables the driver and receiver in case of excessive power dissipation (see Note 4). 60Ω TE Receiver and Failsafe With the receiver enabled, when the absolute value of the differential voltage between the A and B pins is greater than 200mV, the state of RO will reflect the polarity of (A-B). The LTC2854/LTC2855 have a failsafe feature that guarantees the receiver output to be in a logic-high state when 60Ω >96kΩ 285455 F09 B Figure 9. Equivalent Input Resistance into A and B (on the LTC2854, Valid if Driver is Disabled) 285455fa 10 LTC2854/LTC2855 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Proper cable termination is very important for good signal fidelity. If the cable is not terminated with its characteristic impedance, reflections will result in distorted waveforms. When the TE pin is high, the termination resistor is enabled and the differential resistance from A to B is 120Ω. Figure 10 shows the I/V characteristics between pins A and B with the termination resistor enabled and disabled. The resistance is maintained over the entire RS485 common mode range of –7V to +12V as shown in Figure 11. The LTC2854/LTC2855 are the first 3.3V RS485/RS422 transceivers to offer integrated switchable termination resistors on the receiver input pins. This provides the advantage of being able to easily change, through logic control, the line termination for optimal performance when configuring transceiver networks. The integrated termination resistor has a high frequency response which does not limit performance at the maximum specified data rate. Figure 12 shows the magnitude and phase of the termination impedance vs frequency.

Termination Magnitude and Phase vs Frequency 285455fa 11 LTC2854/LTC2855 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Supply Current The unloaded static supply currents in the LTC2854/ LTC2855 are very low —typically under 500μA for all modes of operation. In applications with resistively terminated cables, the supply current is dominated by the driver load. For example, when using two 120Ω terminators with a differential driver output voltage of 2V, the DC current is 33mA, which is sourced by the positive voltage supply. This is true whether the terminators are external or internal such as in the LTC2854/LTC2855. Power supply current increases with toggling rate due to capacitive loading and this term can increase significantly at high data rates. Figure 13 shows supply current vs data rate for two different capacitive loads for the circuit configuration of Figure 4. 80 The logic inputs of the LTC2854/LTC2855 have 150mV of hysteresis to provide noise immunity. Fast edges on the outputs can cause glitches in the ground and power supplies which are exacerbated by capacitive loading. If a logic input is held near its threshold (typically 1.5V), a noise glitch from a driver transition may exceed the hysteresis levels on the logic and data input pins causing an unintended state change. This can be avoided by maintaining normal logic levels on the pins and by slewing inputs through their thresholds by faster than 1V/μs when transitioning. Good supply decoupling and proper line termination also reduces glitches caused by driver transitions.

A typical curve of cable length vs data rate compliant with the RS485/RS422 standards is shown in Figure 14. Three regions of this curve reflect different performance limiting factors in data transmission. In the flat region of the curve, maximum distance is determined by resistive losses in the cable. The downward sloping region represents limits in distance and data rate due to AC losses in the cable. The solid vertical line represents the specified maximum data rate in the RS485/RS422 standards. The dashed lines at 20Mbps show the maximum data rates of the LTC2854/LTC2855. Figure 13. Supply Current vs Data Rate 10k A ground plane layout is recommended for the LTC2854/ LTC2855. A 0.1μF bypass capacitor less than one-quarter inch away from the VCC pin is also recommended. The PC board traces connected to signals A/B and Z/Y (LTC2855) should be symmetrical and as short as possible to maintain good differential signal integrity. To minimize capacitive effects, the differential signals should be separated by more than the width of a trace and should not be routed on top of each other if they are on different signal planes. Care should be taken to route outputs away from any sensitive inputs to reduce feedback effects that might cause noise, jitter, or even oscillations.
