HIGH SPEED +3.3V QUAD RS-422 DIFFERENTIAL LINE DRIVER
JUNE 2011
REV. 1.1.1
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The
SP26LV431
is a quad differential line driver that
meets the specifications of the EIA standard RS-422
serial protocol. The
SP26LV431
features Exar's
BiCMOS process allowing low power operational
characteristics of CMOS technology while meeting all
of the demands of the RS-422 serial protocol over
60Mbps under load. The RS-422 protocol allows up
to 10 receivers to be connected to a multipoint bus
transmission line. The
SP26LV431
features a driver
enable control common to all four drivers that places
the output pins in a high impedance state. Since the
cabling can be as long as 4,000 feet, the RS-422
drivers of the
SP26LV431
are equipped with a wide
common-mode output voltage range to accommodate
ground potential differences.

Refer to EIA specifications for RS-422 serial protocol for exact test conditions.
Measured per input. All other inputs at V
CC
or GND.
This is the current sourced when a high output is shorted to GND. Only one output at a time should be shorted.
Skew is defined as the difference in propagation delays between complementary outputs at the 50% input.
Output disable time is the delay from ENABLE or ENABLE being switched to the output transistors turning off.
The actual disable times are less than indicated due to the delay added by the RC time constant of the load.
C
PD
determines the no load dynamic power consumption, P
