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 at 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 3 for key features and configurations by device number. For fault protected or wide common mode range devices with cable invert (polarity reversal) please see the ISL32485E datasheet.

- Application NotePDF 365 KB AN1978 Apr 12, 2023AI-generated Summary: The document details surge protection circuits for RS-485 transceivers, focusing on Level 4 (4kV) protection using gas discharge tubes (GDTs) for higher overvoltage and overcurrent tolerance. It compares protection schemes by component count, board area, and cost, highlighting that higher-level protection increases complexity and expense. The BOMs for Level 3 and Level 4 circuits list components such as transceivers, bidirectional TVS diodes, transient blocking units, thyristors or GDTs, and resistors. The GDT switching characteristic explains how it diverts transient currents to ground by transitioning from high impedance to a crowbar current path. Simpler protection can be achieved with overvoltage protected transceivers.
- Application NotePDF 207 KB an1985 Aug 19, 2022AI-generated Summary: Transient protection for RS-485 transceivers involves careful TVS diode design to prevent damage from high surge currents. Internal ESD structures in the ISL3152E share transient current with external TVS diodes, risking damage without current-limiting resistors. Using thick-film resistors under 200 ohms between TVS and transceiver limits surge current while minimizing bus voltage attenuation. Recommended PCB layout includes low-inductance ground and Vcc planes, 0603 resistors for wave or reflow soldering, and proper component placement to reduce inductance and enhance protection.
- Application NotePDF 474 KB AN1979 Aug 16, 2022AI-generated Summary: The document explains surge protection using Renesas’ Overvoltage Protected (OVP) transceivers with various protection schemes. It details the use of TVS diodes and thyristors to protect data lines against surge currents while maintaining low capacitance for high data rates. Different configurations address various common-mode voltage ranges and surge levels, ensuring compliance with IEC61000-4-5 standards. The paper includes calculations for peak protection voltages and discusses device characteristics and combinations for robust surge protection in industrial applications.
