The LT C
®
2862/LTC2863/LTC2864/LTC2865 are low power,
20Mbps or 250kbps RS485/RS422 transceivers operating
on 3V to 5.5V supplies that feature ±60V overvoltage fault
protection on the data transmission lines during all modes
of operation, including power-down. Low EMI slew rate
limited data transmission is available in a logic-selectable
250kbps mode in the LTC2865 and in 250kbps versions of
the LTC2862-LTC2864. Enhanced ESD protection allows
these parts to withstand ±15kV HBM on the transceiver
interface pins without latchup or damage.
Extended ±25V input common mode range and full fail-
safe operation improve data communication reliability in
electrically noisy environments and in the presence of
large ground loop voltages.

±60V Fault Protection
The LTC2862-LTC2865 devices answer application needs
for overvoltage fault-tolerant RS485/RS422 transceivers
operating from 3V to 5.5V power supplies. Industrial
installations may encounter common mode voltages
between nodes far greater than the –7V to 12V range
specified by the RS485 standards. Standard RS485
transceivers can be damaged by voltages above their typical
absolute maximum ratings of –8V to 12.5V. The limited
overvoltage tolerance of standard RS485 transceivers
makes implementation of effective external protection
networks difficult without interfering with proper data
network performance within the –7V to 12V region of
RS485 operation. Replacing standard RS485 transceivers
with the rugged LTC2862-LTC2865 devices may eliminate
field failures due to overvoltage faults without using costly
external protection devices.
The ±60V fault protection of the LTC2862 series is
achieved by using a high-voltage BiCMOS integrated circuit
technology. The naturally high breakdown voltage of this
technology provides protection in powered-off and high-
impedance conditions. The driver outputs use a progressive
foldback current limit design to protect against overvoltage
faults while still allowing high current output drive.
The LTC2862 series is protected from ±60V faults even with
GND open, or VCC open or grounded. Additional precautions
must be taken in the case of VCC present and GND open.
The LTC2862 series chip will protect itself from damage,
but the chip ground current may flow out through the ESD
diodes on the logic I/O pins and into associated circuitry.
The system designer should examine the susceptibility
of the associated circuitry to damage if the condition of a
GND open fault with VCC present is anticipated.
The high voltage rating of the LTC2862 series makes it
simple to extend the overvoltage protection to higher
levels using external protection components. Compared
to lower voltage RS485 transceivers, external protection
devices with higher breakdown voltages can be used, so
as not to interfere with data transmission in the presence
of large common mode voltages. The Typical Applications
section shows a protection network against faults up to
±360V peak, while still maintaining the extended ±25V
common mode range on the signal lines.
±25V Extended Common Mode Range
To further increase the reliability of operation and extend
functionality in environments with high common mode
voltages due to electrical noise or local ground potential
differences due to ground loops, the LTC2862-LTC2865
devices feature an extended common mode operating
range of –25V to 25V. This extended common mode
range allows the LTC2862-LTC2865 devices to transmit
and receive under conditions that would cause data errors
and possible device damage in competing products.
±15kV ESD Protection
The LTC2862 series devices feature exceptionally robust
ESD protection. The transceiver interface pins (A,B,Y,Z)
feature protection to ±15kV HBM with respect to GND
without latchup or damage, during all modes of operation
or while unpowered. All the other pins are protected to ±8kV
HBM to make this a component capable of reliable operation
under severe environmental conditions.
Driver
The driver provides full RS485/RS422 compatibility. When
enabled, if DI is high, Y–Z is positive for the full-duplex
devices (LTC2863-LTC2865) and A–B is positive for the
half-duplex device (LTC2862).
When the driver is disabled, both outputs are high-
impedance. For the full-duplex devices, the leakage on
the driver output pins is guaranteed to be less than 30µA
over the entire common mode range of –25V to 25V. On
the half-duplex LTC2862, 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 –60V to
60V. The maximum current in a fault condition is ±250mA.
The driver includes a progressive foldback current limiting
circuit that continuously reduces the driver current limit
with increasing output fault voltage. The fault current is
less than ±15mA for fault voltages over ±40V.
All devices also feature thermal shutdown protection that
disables the driver and receiver in case of excessive power
dissipation (see Note 4).

Full Failsafe Operation
When the absolute value of the differential voltage between
the A and B pins is greater than 200mV with the receiver
enabled, the state of RO will reflect the polarity of (A–B).
These parts have a failsafe feature that guarantees the
receiver output will be in a logic 1 state (the idle state)
when the inputs are shorted, left open, or terminated but
not driven, for more than abouts. The delay allows
normal data signals to transition through the threshold
region without being interpreted as a failsafe condition. This
failsafe feature is guaranteed to work for inputs spanning
the entire common mode range of –25V to 25V.
Most competing devices achieve the failsafe function by a
simple negative offset of the input threshold voltage. This
causes the receiver to interpret a zero differential voltage
as a logic 1 state. The disadvantage of this approach is
the input offset can introduce duty cycle asymmetry at the
receiver output that becomes increasingly worse with low
input signal levels and slow input edge rates.
Other competing devices use internal biasing resistors to
create a positive bias at the receiver inputs in the absence
of an external signal. This type of failsafe biasing is
ineffective if the network lines are shorted, or if the network
is terminated but not driven by an active transmitter.
the positive and negative thresholds. If this condition
persists for more than abouts the failsafe condition is
asserted and the RO pin is forced to the logic 1 state. This
circuit provides full failsafe operation with no negative
impact to receiver duty cycle symmetry, as shown in
Figure 8. The input signal in Figure 8 was obtained by
driving a 10Mbps RS485 signal through 1000 feet of cable,
thereby attenuating it to a ±200mV signal with slow rise
and fall times. Good duty cycle symmetry is observed at
RO despite the degraded input signal.
Enhanced Receiver Noise Immunity
An additional benefit of the fully symmetric receiver
thresholds is enhanced receiver noise immunity. The
differential input signal must go above the positive
threshold to register as a logic 1 and go below the
negative threshold to register as a logic 0. This provides
a hysteresis of 150mV (typical) at the receiver inputs for
any valid data signal. (An invalid data condition such as
a DC sweep of the receiver inputs will produce a different
observed hysteresis due to the activation of the failsafe
circuit.) Competing devices that employ a negative offset
of the input threshold voltage generally have a much
smaller hysteresis and subsequently have lower receiver
noise immunity.
RS485 Network Biasing
RS485 networks are usually biased with a resistive divider
to generate a differential voltage of ≥200mV on the data
lines, which establishes a logic 1 state (the idle state)
when all the transmitters on the network are disabled. The
values of the biasing resistors are not fixed, but depend
on the number and type of transceivers on the line and
the number and value of terminating resistors. Therefore,
the values of the biasing resistors must be customized to
each specific network installation, and may change if nodes
are added to or removed from the network.
The internal failsafe feature of the LTC2862-LTC2865
eliminates the need for external network biasing resistors
provided they are used in a network of transceivers with
similar internal failsafe features. The LTC2862-LTC2865
transceivers will operate correctly on biased, unbiased,
or under-biased networks.

The LTC2862 series uses fully symmetric positive and

Hi-Z State
The receiver output is internally driven high (to VCC or VL)
or low (to GND) with no external pull-up needed. When the
receiver is disabled the RO pin becomes Hi-Z with leakage
of less than ±5μA for voltages within the supply range.
High Receiver Input Resistance
The receiver input load from A or B to GND for the LTC2863,
LTC2864, and LTC2865 is less than one-eighth unit load,
permitting a total of 256 receivers per system without
exceeding the RS485 receiver loading specification. All
grades of the LTC2862 and the H- and MP-grade devices
of the LTC2863, LTC2864, and LTC2865 have an input
load less than one-seventh unit load over the complete
temperature range of –40°C to 125°C. The increased input
load specification for these devices is due to increased
junction leakage at high temperature and the transmitter
circuitry sharing the A and B pins on the LTC2862. The
input load of the receiver is unaffected by enabling/disabling
the receiver or by powering/unpowering the part.
Supply Current
The unloaded static supply currents in these devices
are low —typically 900μA for non slew limited devices
and 3.3mA for slew limited devices. 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 load current is 33mA, which is sourced by
the positive voltage supply. Power supply current increases
with toggling data due to capacitive loading and this term
can increase significantly at high data rates. A plot of
the supply current vs data rate is shown in the Typical
Performance Characteristics of this data sheet.
During fault conditions with a positive voltage larger than
the supply voltage applied to the transmitter pins, or during
transmitter operation with a high positive common mode
voltage, positive current of up to 80mA may flow from the
transmitter pins back to VCC. If the system power supply
or loading cannot sink this excess current, a 5.6V 1W
1N4734 Zener diode may be placed between VCC and GND
to prevent an overvoltage condition on VCC.
There are no power-up sequence restrictions on the
LTC2865. However, correct operation is not guaranteed for
VL > VCC.
Shutdown Mode Delay
The LTC2862, LTC2864, and LTC2865 feature a low power
shutdown mode that is entered when both the driver and
the receiver are simultaneously disabled (pin DE low and
RE high). A shutdown mode delay of approximately 250ns
(not tested in production) is imposed after this state is
received before the chip enters shutdown. If either DE goes
high or RE goes low during this delay, the delay timer is
reset and the chip does not enter shutdown. This reduces
the chance of accidentally entering shutdown if DE and
RE are driven in parallel by a slowly changing signal or if
DE and RE are driven by two independent signals with a
timing skew between them.
This shutdown mode delay does not affect the outputs of
the transmitter and receiver, which start to switch to the
high impedance state upon the reception of their respec-
tive disable signals as defined by the parameters tSHDND
and tSHDNR. The shutdown mode delay affects only the
time when all the internal circuits that draw DC power
from VCC are turned off.
High Speed Considerations
A ground plane layout with a 0.1µF bypass capacitor placed
less than 7mm away from the VCC pin is recommended. The
PC board traces connected to signals A/B and Z/Y 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. For example, in
the full-duplex devices, DI and A/B should not be routed
near the driver or receiver outputs.
The logic inputs have a typical hysteresis of 100mV 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 VCC/2 or VL/2), 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 faster than 1V/
μs. Good supply decoupling and proper driver termination
also reduce glitches caused by driver transitions.
RS485 Cable Length vs Data Rate
Many factors contribute to the maximum cable length
that can be used for RS485 or RS422 communication,
including driver transition times, receiver threshold, duty
cycle distortion, cable properties and data rate. A typical
curve of cable length versus maximum data rate is shown
in Figure 9. Various regions of this curve reflect different
performance limiting factors in data transmission.
At frequencies below 100kbps, the maximum cable length is
determined by DC resistance in the cable. In this example,
a cable longer than 4000ft will attenuate the signal at the
far end to less than what can be reliably detected by the
receiver.
For data rates above 100kbps the capacitive and inductive
properties of the cable begin to dominate this relationship.
The attenuation of the cable is frequency and length
dependent, resulting in increased rise and fall times at
the far end of the cable. At high data rates or long cable
applicaTions inForMaTion
lengths, these transition times become a significant part
of the signal bit time. Jitter and intersymbol interference
aggravate this so that the time window for capturing valid
data at the receiver becomes impossibly small.
The boundary at 20Mbps in Figure 9 represents the
guaranteed maximum operating rate of the LTC2862
series. The dashed vertical line at 10Mbps represents the
specified maximum data rate in the RS485 standard. This
boundary is not a limit, but reflects the maximum data
rate that the specification was written for.
It should be emphasized that the plot in Figure 9 shows
a typical relation between maximum data rate and
cable length. Results with the LTC2862 series will vary,
depending on cable properties such as conductor gauge,
characteristic impedance, insulation material, and solid
versus stranded conductors.
Low EMI 250kbps Data Rate
The LTC2862-2, LTC2863-2, and the LTC2864-2 feature
slew rate limited transmitters for low electromagnetic
interference (EMI) in sensitive applications. In addition,
the LTC2865 has a logic-selectable 250kbps transmit rate.
The slew rate limit circuit maintains consistent control of
transmitter slew rates across voltage and temperature to
ensure low EMI under all operating conditions. Figure 10
demonstrates the reduction in high frequency content
achieved by the 250kbps mode compared to the 20Mbps
mode.

The 250kbps mode has the added advantage of reducing
signal reflections in an unterminated network, and there-
by increasing the length of a network that can be used
without termination. Using the rule of thumb that the rise
time of the transmitter should be greater than four times
the one-way delay of the signal, networks of up to 140
feet can be driven without termination.
PROFIBUS Compatible Interface
PROFIBUS is an RS485-based field bus. In addition
to the specifications of TIA/EIA-485-A, the PROFIBUS
specification contains additional requirements for cables,
interconnects, line termination, and signal levels. The
following discussion applies to the PROFIBUS Type A cables
with associated connectors and termination. The Type A
cable is a twisted pair shielded cable with a characteristic
impedance of 135to 165Ω and a loop resistance of
< 110Ω/km.
The LTC2865 family of RS485 transceivers may be used
in PROFIBUS compatible equipment if the following
considerations are implemented. (Please refer to the
schematic of the PROFIBUS Compatible Interface in the
Typical Applications Section.)
1. The polarity of the PROFIBUS signal is opposite to the
polarity convention used in this data sheet. The PRO-
FIBUS B wire is driven by a non-inverted signal, while
the A wire is driven by an inverted signal. Therefore,
it is necessary to swap the output connections from
the transceiver. Pin A is connected to the PROFIBUS B
wire, and Pin B is connected to the PROFIBUS A wire.
2. Each end of the PROFIBUS line is terminated with a
220Ω resistor between B and A, a 390Ω pull-up resis-
tor between B and VCC, and a 390Ω pull-down resistor
be-tween A and GND. This provides suitable termination
for the 150Ω twisted pair transmission cable.
3. The peak to peak differential voltage VOD received at
the end of a 100m cable with the cable and termina-
tions described above must be greater than 4V and less
than 7V. The LTC2865 family produces signal levels in
excess of 7V when driving this network directly. 8.2
resistors may be inserted between the A and B pins of
the transceiver and the B and A pins of the PROFIBUS
cable to attenuate the transmitted signal to meet the
PROFIBUS upper limit of 7V while still providing enough
drive strength to meet the lower limit of 4V.
4. The LTC2865 family transceiver should be powered by
a 5% tolerance 5V supply (4.75V to 5.25V) to ensure
that the PROFIBUS VOD tolerances are met.
Auxiliary Protection For IEC Surge, EFT and ESD
An interface transceiver used in an industrial setting
may be exposed to extremely high levels of electrical
overstress due to phenomena such as lightning surge,
electrical fast transient (EFT) from switching high current
inductive loads, and electrostatic discharge (ESD) from
the discharge of electrically charged personnel or equip-
ment. Test methods to evaluate immunity of electronic
equipment to these phenomenon are defined in the IEC
standards 61000-4-2, 61000-4-4, and 61000-4-5, which
address ESD, EFT, and surge, respectively. The transi-
ents produced by the EFT and particularly the surge tests
contain much more energy than the ESD transients. The
LTC2865 family is designed for high robustness against
ESD, but the on-chip protection is not able to absorb the
energy associated with the 61000-4-5 surge transients.
Therefore, a properly designed external protection network
is necessary to achieve a high level of surge protection,
and can also extend the ESD and EFT performance of the
LTC2865 family to extremely high levels.
In addition to providing surge, EFT and ESD protection,
an external network should preserve or extend the ability
of the LTC2865 family to withstand overvoltage faults,
operate over a wide common mode, and communicate
at high frequencies. In order to meet the first two
requirements, protection components with suitably high
conduction voltages must be chosen. A means to limit
current must be provided to prevent damage in case
a secondary protection device or the ESD cell on the
LTC2865 family fires and conducts. The capacitance of
these components must be kept low in order to permit high
frequency communication over a network with multiple
nodes. Meeting the requirements for conducting very high
energy electrical transients while maintaining high hold-off
voltages and low capacitance is a considerable challenge.

A protection network shown in the Typical Applications
section (network for IEC level 4 protection against surge,
EFT and ESD) meets this challenge. The network provides
the following protection:
IEC 61000-4-2 ESD Level 4: ±30KV contact, ±30kV air
(line to GND, direct discharge to bus pins with transceiver
and protection circuit mounted on a ground referenced
test card per Figure 4 of the standard)
IEC 61000-4-4 EFT Level 4: ±5KV (line to GND, 5kHz
repetition rate, 15ms burst duration, 60 second test
duration, discharge coupled to bus pins through 100pF
capacitor per paragraph 7.3.2 of the standard)
IEC 61000-4-5 Surge Level 4: ±5KV (line to GND, line to
line, 8/20µs waveform, each line coupled to generator
through 80Ω resistor per Figure 14 of the standard)
This protection circuit adds only ~8pF of capacitance per
line (line to GND), thereby providing an extremely high level
of protection without significant impact to the performance
of the LTC2865 family transceivers at high data rates.
The gas discharge tubes (GDTs) provide the primary pro-
tection against electrical surges. These devices provide a
very low impedance and high current carrying capability
when they fire, safely discharging the surge current to
GND. The transient blocking units (TBUs) are solid state
devices that switch from a low impedance pass through
state to a high impedance current limiting state when a
specified current level is reached. These devices limit the
current and power that can pass through to the secondary
protection. The secondary protection consists of a
bidirectional thyristor, which triggers above 35V to protect
the bus pins of the LTC2865 family transceiver. The high
trigger voltage of the secondary protection maintains the
full ±25V common mode range of the receivers. The final
component of the network is the metal oxide varistors
(MOVs) which are used to clamp the voltage across the
TBUs to protect them against fast ESD and EFT transients
which exceed the turn-on time of the GDT.
The high performance of this network is attributable to
the low capacitance of the GDT and thyristor primary
and secondary protection devices. The high capacitance
MOV floats on the line and is shunted by the TBU, so it
contributes no appreciable capacitive load on the signal.
