GENERAL DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The XR3170E - XR3178E family of RS-485 devices are designed for reliable, bidirectional communication on multipoint bus transmission lines. Each device contains one differential driver and one differential receiver. XR3172E, XR3175E and XR3178E are halfduplex devices; other part numbers are full-duplex. All devices comply with TIA/EIA-485 and TIA/EIA-422 standards. Lead free and RoHS compliant packages are available for all models.
These devices are ruggedized for use in harsh operating conditions over the entire common-mode voltage range from -7V to +12V. Receivers are specially designed to fail-safe to a logic high output state if the inputs are left un-driven or shorted. All RS485 bus pins are protected against severe ESD events up to +/-15kV (Air-Gap and Human Body Model) and up to +/-8kV Contact Discharge (IEC 61000-4-2). Drivers are protected from excess current flow caused by bus contention or output short-circuits by both an internal current limit and a thermal-overload shutdown. Devices are rated for Industrial (-40 to +85°C) operating temperatures. Receivers have exceptionally high input impedance, which places only 1/8th the standard load on a shared bus. Up to 256 transceivers may coexist while preserving full signal margin.
All devices operate from a single 3.3V power supply and draw negligible quiescent power. All versions exce...
