General Description
The MAX13430E–MAX13433E are full- and half-duplex
RS-485 transceivers that feature an adjustable low-volt-
age logic interface for operation in multivoltage systems.
This allows direct interfacing to low-voltage ASIC/FPGAs
without extra components. The MAX13430E–MAX13433E
RS-485 transceivers operate with a VCC voltage supply
from +3V to +5V. The low-voltage logic interface operates
with a voltage supply from +1.62V to VCC.
The MAX13430E/MAX13432E feature reduced slew-
rate drivers that minimize EMI and reduce reflections
caused by improperly terminated cables, allowing
error-free data transmission up to 500kbps. The
MAX13431E/MAX13433E driver slew rates are not limit-
ed, enabling data transmission up to 16Mbps. The
MAX13430E/MAX13431E are intended for half-duplex
communications, and the MAX13432E/MAX13433E are
intended for full-duplex communications.
The MAX13430E/MAX13431E are available in 10-pin
µMAX®and 10-pin TDFN packages. The MAX13432E/
MAX13433E are available in 14-pin TDFN and 14-pin
SO packages.

DC ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
(VCC = +3V to +5.5V, VL= +1.8V to VCC, TA= -40°C to +85°C, unless otherwise noted. Typical values are VCC = +5V, VL= +1.8V at
TA= +25°C.) (Notes 2, 3)
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
Note 1: Package thermal resistances were obtained using the method described in JEDEC specification JESD51-7, using a four-
layer board. For detailed information on package thermal considerations, refer to www.maxim-ic.com/thermal-tutorial.

Note 3: All currents into the device are positive. All currents out of the device are negative. All voltages are referenced to device
ground, unless otherwise noted.
Note 4: ΔVOD and ΔVOC are the changes in VOD and VOC, respectively, when the DI input changes state.
Note 5: The short-circuit output current is the peak current just prior to current limiting; the short-circuit foldback output current
applies during current limiting to allow a recovery from bus contention.

RS-485 Transceivers with Low-Voltage
Logic Interface
Detailed Description
The MAX13430E–MAX13433E are full- and half-duplex
RS-485 transceivers that feature an adjustable low-
voltage logic interface for application in multivoltage
systems. This allows direct interfacing to low-
voltage ASIC/FPGAs without extra components. The
MAX13430E–MAX13433E RS-485 transceivers operate
with a VCC voltage supply from +3V to +5V. The low-
voltage logic interface operates with a voltage supply
from +1.62V to VCC.
The MAX13430E–MAX13433E are ±30kV ESD-protect-
ed RS-485 transceivers with one driver and one receiv-
er. All devices have a 1/8-unit load receiver input
impedance, allowing up to 256 transceivers on the bus.
These devices include fail-safe circuitry, guaranteeing
a logic-high receiver output when receiver inputs are
open or shorted. The receivers output a logic-high if all
transmitters on a terminated bus are disabled (high
impedance). All devices feature hot-swap capability to
eliminate false transitions on the bus during power-up
or hot insertion.
The MAX13430E/MAX13432E feature reduced slew-
rate drivers that minimize EMI and reduce reflections
caused by improperly terminated cables, allowing
error-free data transmission up to 500kbps. The
MAX13431E/MAX13433E driver slew rates are not limit-
ed, enabling data transmission up to 16Mbps.
The MAX13430E–MAX13433E transceivers draw 2mA
of supply current when unloaded or when fully loaded
with the drivers disabled. The MAX13430E/
MAX13431E are intended for half-duplex communica-
tions, and the MAX13432E/MAX13433E are intended
for full-duplex communications.
Low-Voltage Logic Interface
VLis the voltage supply for the low-voltage logic inter-
face and receiver output. VLoperates with voltage sup-
ply from +1.62V to VCC.
Fail Safe
The MAX13430E family guarantees a logic-high receiv-
er output when the receiver inputs are shorted or open,
or when they are connected to a terminated transmis-
sion line with all drivers disabled. This is done by set-
ting the receiver input threshold between -50mV and
-200mV. If the differential receiver input voltage (A - B)
is greater than or equal to -50mV, RO is logic-high.
If (A - B) is less than or equal to -200mV, RO is logic-
low. In the case of a terminated bus with all transmitters
disabled, the receiver’s differential input voltage is
pulled to 0V by the termination. With the receiver
thresholds of the MAX13430E family, this results in a
logic-high with a 50mV minimum noise margin. The
-50mV to -200mV threshold complies with the ±200mV
EIA/TIA/RS-485 standard.
Hot-Swap Capability
When circuit boards are inserted into a hot or powered
backplane, differential disturbances to the data bus can
lead to data errors. Upon initial circuit-board insertion,
the data communication processor undergoes its own
power-up sequence. During this period, the processor’s
logic-output drivers are high impedance and are unable
to drive the DE and RE inputs of these devices to a
defined logic level. Leakage currents up to ±10µA from
the high-impedance state of the processor’s logic drivers
could cause standard CMOS enable inputs of a trans-
ceiver to drift to an incorrect logic level. Additionally, par-
asitic circuit-board capacitance could cause coupling of
VLor GND to the enable inputs. Without the hot-swap
capability, these factors could improperly enable the
transceiver’s driver or receiver. When VLrises, an inter-
nal pulldown circuit holds DE low and RE high. After the
initial power-up sequence, the pulldown circuit becomes
transparent, resetting the hot-swap tolerable input.
±30kV ESD Protection
ESD-protection structures are incorporated on all pins
to protect against electrostatic discharges encoun-
tered during handling and assembly. The driver out-
puts and receiver inputs of the MAX13430E family of
devices have extra protection against static electricity.
Maxim’s engineers have developed state-of-the-
art structures to protect these pins against ESD of
±30kV without damage. The ESD structures withstand
high ESD in all states: normal operation, shutdown,
and powered down. After an ESD event, the
MAX13430E–MAX13433E keep working without latchup
or damage. ESD protection can be tested in various
ways. The transmitter outputs and receiver inputs of the
MAX13430E–MAX13433E are characterized for protec-
tion to the following limits:
±30kV using the Human Body Model
±10kV using the Contact Discharge method specified
in IEC 61000-4-2
±15kV using the Air Gap Discharge method specified
in IEC 61000-4-2

ESD Test Conditions
ESD performance depends on a variety of conditions.
Contact Maxim for a reliability report that documents
test setup, test methodology, and test results.
Human Body Model
Figure 10a shows the Human Body Model, and Figure
10b shows the current waveform it generates when dis-
charged into a low impedance. This model consists of a
100pF capacitor charged to the ESD voltage of interest,
which is then discharged into the test device through a
1.5kΩresistor.
IEC 61000-4-2
The IEC 61000-4-2 standard covers ESD testing and
performance of finished equipment. However, it does
not specifically refer to integrated circuits. The
MAX13430E family of devices helps you design equip-
ment to meet IEC 61000-4-2, without the need for addi-
tional ESD-protection components.
The major difference between tests done using the
Human Body Model and IEC 61000-4-2 is higher peak
current in IEC 61000-4-2 because series resistance is
lower in the IEC 61000-4-2 model. Hence, the ESD with-
stand voltage measured to IEC 61000-4-2 is generally
lower than that measured using the Human Body
Model. Figure 10c shows the IEC 61000-4-2 model, and
Figure 10d shows the current waveform for IEC 61000-
4-2 ESD Contact Discharge test.

Applications Information
256 Transceivers on the Bus
The standard RS-485 receiver input impedance is a
one-unit load (12kΩ), and the standard driver can drive
up to 32 unit loads. The MAX13430E family of trans-
ceivers has a 1/8-unit load receiver input impedance
(96kΩ), allowing up to 256 transceivers to be connect-
ed in parallel on one communication line. Any combina-
tion of these devices, as well as other RS-485
transceivers with a total of 32-unit loads or less, can be
connected to the line.
Reduced EMI and Reflections
The MAX13430E/MAX13432E feature reduced slew-
rate drivers that minimize EMI and reduce reflections
caused by improperly terminated cables, allowing
error-free data transmission up to 500kbps.
Driver Output Protection
Two mechanisms prevent excessive output current and
power dissipation caused by faults or by bus con-
tention. The first, a foldback current limit on the output
stage, provides immediate protection against short cir-
cuits over the whole common-mode voltage range (see
the
Typical Operating Characteristics
.) The second, a
thermal-shutdown circuit, forces the driver outputs into
a high-impedance state if the die temperature exceeds
+150°C (typ).
Typical Applications
The MAX13430E/MAX13433E transceivers are
designed for bidirectional data communications on mul-
tipoint bus transmission lines. Figures 11 and 12 show
typical network applications circuits. To minimize reflec-
tions, terminate the line at both ends with its character-
istic impedance, and keep stub lengths off the main
line as short as possible. The slew-rate-limited
MAX13430E/MAX13432E allow the RS-485 network to
be more tolerant of imperfect termination.
