+5V, Fail-Safe, 40Mbps, Profibus RS-485/
RS-422 Transceivers
General Description
The MAX3465–MAX3469 are high-speed differential
bus transceivers for RS-485 and RS-422 communica-
tions. They are designed to meet TIA/EIA-422-B,
TIA/EIA-485-A, V.11, and X.27 standards. The trans-
ceiver complies with the Profibus specification provid-
ing +2.1V minimum output level with a 54Ω load,
40Mbps data rate, and output skew less than 2ns. Each
part contains one three-state differential line driver and
one differential input line receiver. The devices operate
from a +5V supply and feature true fail-safe circuitry,
which guarantees a logic-high receiver output when the
receiver inputs are open or shorted. This enables all
receiver outputs on a terminated bus to output logic
highs when all transmitters are disabled.
All devices feature a 1/4-standard-unit load receiver
input impedance that allows 128 transceivers on the
bus. Driver and receiver propagation delays are guar-
anteed under 20ns for multidrop, clock distribution
applications. Drivers are short-circuit current limited
and are protected against excessive power dissipation
by thermal-shutdown circuitry. The driver and receiver
feature active-high and active-low enables, respective-
ly, that can be connected together externally to serve
as a direction control.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 1:
All currents into the device are positive; all currents out of the device are negative. All voltages are referenced to device
ground, unless otherwise noted.
Note 2:
ΔV
OD
and
ΔV
OC
are the changes in V
OD
and V
OC
, respectively, when the DI input changes state.
Note 3:
The short-circuit output current applies to peak current just prior to foldback-current limiting; the short-circuit foldback output
current applies during current limiting to allow a recovery from bus contention.
Note 4:
Capacitive load includes test probe and fixture capacitance.
Note 5:
Shutdown is enabled by bringing
RE
high and DE low or by bringing SHDN high. If the enable inputs are in this state for less
than 50ns, the device is guaranteed not to enter shutdown. If the enable inputs are in this state for at least 800ns, the device
is guaranteed to have entered shutdown.
