In addition it is compatible with TIA/EIA-422-B. 1 2 * * * * * * * * * * * (1) 100% RS-485 Compliant - Guaranteed RS-485 Device Interoperation Low Power CMOS Design: ICC 500 A Max Built-In Power Up/Down Glitch-Free Circuitry - Permits Live Transceiver Insertion/Displacement PDIP and SOIC Packages Available Industrial Temperature Range: -40C to +85C On-Board Thermal Shutdown Circuitry - Prevents Damage to the Device in the Event of Excessive Power Dissipation Wide Common Mode Range: -7V to +12V Receiver Open Input Fail-Safe (1) 1/4 Unit Load (DS36C278): 12 Nodes 1/2 Unit Load (DS36C278T): 64 Nodes ESD (Human Body Model): 2 kV Drop in Replacement for: - LTC485, MAX485, DS75176, DS3695 The CMOS design offers significant power savings over its bipolar and ALS counterparts without sacrificing ruggedness against ESD damage. The device is ideal for use in battery powered or power conscious applications. ICC is specified at 500 A maximum. The driver and receiver outputs feature TRI-STATE capability. The driver outputs operate over the entire common mode range of -7V to +12V. Bus contention or fault situations that cause excessive power dissipation within the device are handled by a thermal shutdown circuit, which forces the driver outputs into the high impedance state. The receiver incorporates a fail safe circuit which guarantees a high output state when the inputs are left open. (1) The DS36C278T is fully specified over the industrial temperature range (-40C to +85C).

Typical RS-485 Bus Interface Unit Load A unit load for an RS-485 receiver is defined by the input current versus the input voltage curve. The gray shaded region is the defined operating range from -7V to +12V. The top border extending from -3V at 0 mA to +12V at +1 mA is defined as one unit load. Likewise, the bottom border extending from +5V at 0 mA to -7V at -0.8 mA is also defined as one unit load (see Figure 19). An RS-485 driver is capable of driving up to 32 unit loads. This allows up to 32 nodes on a single bus. Although sufficient for many applications, it is sometimes desirable to have even more nodes. For example, an aircraft that has 32 rows with 4 seats per row would benefit from having 128 nodes on one bus. This would allow signals to be transferred to and from each individual seat to 1 main station. Usually there is one or two less seats in the last row of the aircraft near the restrooms and food storage area. This frees the node for the main station. The DS36C278, the DS36C279, and the DS36C280 all have 1/2 unit load and 1/4 unit load (UL) options available. These devices will allow up to 64 nodes or 128 nodes guaranteed over temperature depending upon which option is selected. The 1/2 UL option is available in industrial temperature and the 1/4 UL is available in commercial temperature. 8 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 1998-2013, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: DS36C278 DS36C278 www.ti.com SNLS096C - JULY 1998 - REVISED APRIL 2013 First, for a 1/2 UL device the top and bottom borders shown in Figure 19 are scaled. Both 0 mA reference points at +5V and -3V stay the same. The other reference points are +12V at +0.5 mA for the top border and -7V at -0.4 mA for the bottom border (see Figure 19). Second, for a 1/4 UL device the top and bottom borders shown in Figure 19 are scaled also. Again, both 0 mA reference points at +5V and -3V stay the same. The other reference points are +12V at +0.25 mA for the top border and -7V at -0.2 mA for the bottom border (see Figure 19). The advantage of the 1/2 UL and 1/4 UL devices is the increased number of nodes on one bus. In a single master multi-slave type of application where the number of slaves exceeds 32, the DS36C278/279/280 may save in the cost of extra devices like repeaters, extra media like cable, and/or extra components like resistors. The DS36C279 and DS36C280 have an additional feature which offers more advantages. The DS36C279 has an automatic sleep mode function for power conscious applications. The DS36C280 has a slew rate control for EMI conscious applications. Refer to the sleep mode and slew rate control portion of the application information section in the corresponding datasheet for more information on these features. Figure 19.

LIFEBUY: TI has announced that the device will be discontinued, and a lifetime-buy period is in effect. NRND: Not recommended for new designs. Device is in production to support existing customers, but TI does not recommend using this part in a new design. PREVIEW: Device has been announced but is not in production. Samples may or may not be available. OBSOLETE: TI has discontinued the production of the device. (2) RoHS: TI defines "RoHS" to mean semiconductor products that are compliant with the current EU RoHS requirements for all 10 RoHS substances, including the requirement that RoHS substance do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, "RoHS" products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes. TI may reference these types of products as "Pb-Free".
