Description

The ISL31490E, ISL31491E, ISL31492E, ISL31493E, ISL31495E, ISL31496E, ISL31498E are fault protected, 5V powered, differential transceivers that exceed the RS-485 and
RS-422 standards for balanced communication. The RS-485 transceiver pins (driver outputs and receiver inputs) are protected against faults up to ±60V. Additionally, the extended common mode range allows these transceivers to operate in environments with common mode voltages up to ±25V (>2x the RS-485 requirement), making this RS-485 family one of the most robust on the market.

Transmitters deliver an exceptional 2.5V (typical) differential output voltage into the
RS-485 specified 54Ω load. This yields better noise immunity than standard RS-485 ICs, or allows up to six 120Ω terminations in star network topologies.

Receiver (Rx) inputs feature a "Full Fail-Safe" design, which ensures a logic high Rx output if Rx inputs are floating, shorted, or on a terminated but undriven (idle) bus. Rx outputs have high drive levels - typically 15mA @ VOL = 1V (for opto-coupled, isolated applications).

Half duplex (Rx inputs and Tx outputs multiplexed together) and full duplex pinouts are available. See Table 1 on page 2 for key features and configurations by device number.

For fault protected or wide common mode range devices with cable invert (polarity reversal) or logic supply (VL) pins, please see the ISL31480E data sheet.

Design Tip

I see many manufacturers offer "+/-15kV ESD Protected" (or "High ESD") products. Does this mean that they all have the same level of protection?

Is there somewhere I can find out what simulations and models (e.g. Spice, PSpice, IBIS) are available on your website?
