DS3695ATMX/NOPB

Single Transmitter/Receiver RS-422/RS-485 8Pin SOIC T/R

The DS3695A and DS3696A are high speed differential TRI-STATE bus/line transceivers designed to meet the requirements of EIA standard RS485 with extended common mode range +12V to −7V, for multipoint data transmission. In addition they are compatible with requirements of RS-422.

The driver and receiver outputs feature TRI-STATE capability. The driver outputs remain in over the entire common mode range of +12V to −7V. Bus faults that cause excessive power dissipation within the device trigger a thermal shutdown circuit, which forces the driver outputs into the high impedance state. The DS3696A provides an output pin TS which reports the thermal shutdown of the device. TS is an “open collector” pin with an internal 10 kΩ pull-up resistor. This allows the TS outputs of several devices to be wire OR-ed.

Both AC and DC specifications are guaranteed over the 0°C to 70°C temperature and 4.75V to 5.25V supply voltage range.
