GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The CT1487M/CT1589M family of single and dual
transceivers is a second generation series incorporating
monolithic bipolar devices for improved reliability and
producibility. For thermal considerations, the drive stage
transistors are “off” the bipolar array. Input/output signals
are compatible with both MIL-STD-1553A and B systems.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
RECEIVER DESCRIPTION
The Receiver section accepts bi-phase differential data
at the input and produces two TTL signals at the output.
The outputs are RX DATA OUT and RX DATA OUT and
represent positive and negative excursions, respectively,
of the input beyond a predetermined threshold. See Figure
2 for receiver logic waveforms.
The positive and negative thresholds are designed for
optimum word error rate. The receiver begins to detect
Data Bus signals (1 MHz, sinusoidal) that exceed 0.9 volt
nominal peak-to-peak when used with the specified
transformer. See Figure 4 for typical input/output
connections.
If the RECEIVER STROBE input is LOW, the RX DATA
OUT and RX DATA OUT are inhibited. If unused, a 2K-
ohm pullup to +5V is recommended.
Note: See ORDERING INFORMATION for units with
inverted outputs. (Pg 7)
Note: All data shown is for a single transceiver unless
otherwise noted. Dual transceivers are two completely
independent units in a common package.

DRIVER DESCRIPTION
The Driver section accepts complementary TTL data at
the input. When coupled to the Data Bus with the specified
transformer (isolated on the Data Bus side with 55-ohm
fault isolation resistors and loaded by two 70-ohm
terminations plus additional receivers), the Data Bus signal
produced is 6.8 volts nominal peak-to-peak (at point A,
Figure 4).
When both TX DATA IN and TX DATA IN inputs are
both held LOW or held HIGH, the driver output becomes a
high impedance and is removed from the line. In addition,
an overriding TX INHIBIT input takes priority over the
condition of the data inputs and disables the driver. See
Figure 3 for the driver logic waveforms.
TX DATA IN and TX DATA IN inputs must be
complementary waveforms of 50% average duty cycle and
with less than 15 ns skew between them.
