GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADM488 and ADM489 are low power, differential line
transceivers suitable for communication on multipoint bus
transmission lines. They are intended for balanced data
transmission and comply with both Electronics Industries
Association (EIA) RS-485 and RS-422 standards. Both products
contain a single differential line driver and a single differential
line receiver, making them suitable for full-duplex data transfer.
The ADM489 contains an additional receiver and driver enable
control.
The input impedance is 12 kΩ, allowing 32 transceivers to be
connected on the bus.
The ADM488/ADM489 operate from a single 5 V ± 10% power
supply. Excessive power dissipation caused by bus contention or
output shorting is prevented by a thermal shutdown circuit.
This feature forces the driver output into a high impedance state
if, during fault conditions, a significant temperature increase is
detected in the internal driver circuitry.
The receiver contains a fail-safe feature that results in a logic
high output state if the inputs are unconnected (floating).
The ADM488/ADM489 are fabricated on BiCMOS, an
advanced mixed technology process combining low power
CMOS with fast switching bipolar technology.
The ADM488/ADM489 are fully specified over the industrial
temperature range and are available in PDIP, SOIC, and TSSOP
packages.

Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on
the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features
proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy
electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance
degradation or loss of functionality.
