RS-485/RS-422 Transceivers with Preemphasis
for High-Speed, Long-Distance Communication
________________General Description
The MAX3291/MAX3292 high-speed RS-485/RS-422
transceivers feature driver preemphasis circuitry, which
extends the distance and increases the data rate of reli-
able communication by reducing intersymbol interfer-
ence (ISI) caused by long cables. The MAX3291 is
programmable for data rates of 5Mbps to 10Mbps,
while the MAX3292 is programmable for data rates up
to 10Mbps by using a single external resistor.
The MAX3291/MAX3292 are full-duplex devices that
operate from a single +5V supply and offer a low-cur-
rent shutdown mode that reduces supply current to
100nA. They feature driver output short-circuit current
limiting and a fail-safe receiver input that guarantees a
logic-high output if the input is open circuit. A 1/4-unit-
load receiver input impedance allows up to 128 trans-
ceivers on the bus.

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:
Guaranteed by design.
Note 3:
DPER is defined as (V
ODP
/ V
OD
).
Note 4:
∆V
ODP
and
∆V
OC
are the changes in V
DD
and V
OC
, respectively, when the DI input changes. This specification reflects
constant operating conditions. When operating conditions shift, the maximum value may be momentarily exceeded.
Note 5:
∆V
ODP
and
∆V
OC
are the changes in V
OD
and V
OC
, respectively, when the DI input changes state.
Note 6:
Maximum current level applies to peak current just prior to foldback-current limiting; minimum current level applies during
current limiting.
Note 7:
Shutdown is enabled by bringing
RE
high and DE low. 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 500ns, the device is guaranteed to have
entered shutdown. Time to shutdown for the device (t
SHDN
) is measured by monitoring R0 as in Figure 4.
