ISL83386E Functional Diagram
Description
The ISL83386E contains 3. 0V to 5. 5V powered RS-232 transmitters/receivers that meet ElA/TIA-232 and V. 28/V. 24 specifications, even at VCC = 3. 0V. Targeted applications are PDAs, Palmtops, and cell phones in which the low operational power consumption, and even lower standby power consumption is critical. Efficient on-chip charge-pumps, coupled with a manual power-down function reduces the standby supply current to a 1µA trickle. Small footprint packaging and the use of small, low value capacitors ensures board space savings as well. Data rates greater than 250kbps are ensured at worst case load conditions. The ISL83386E features a VL pin that adjusts the logic pin (see “Pin Descriptions” on page 3) output levels and input thresholds to values compatible with the VCC powering the external logic (such as a UART). The single pin powerdown function ( SHDN = 0) disables all the receiver and transmitter outputs, while shutting down the charge pump to minimize supply current drain.

- 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.
