General Description
The MAX3280E/MAX3281E/MAX3283E/MAX3284E
are single receivers designed for RS-485 and RS-422
communication. These devices guarantee data rates
up to 52Mbps, even with a 3V power supply. Excellent
propagation delay (15ns max) and package-to-package
skew time (8ns max) make these devices ideal for
multidrop clock distribution applications.
The MAX3280E/MAX3281E/MAX3283E/MAX3284E
have true fail-safe circuitry, which guarantees a logic-high
receiver output when the receiver inputs are opened
or shorted. The receiver output will be a logic high if
all transmitters on a terminated bus are disabled (high
impedance). These devices feature 1/4-unit-load receiver
input impedance, allowing up to 128 receivers on the
same bus.
The MAX3280E is a single receiver available in a 5-pin
SOT23 package. The MAX3281E/MAX3283E single
receivers have a receiver enable (EN or EN) function and
are offered in a 6-pin SOT23 package. The MAX3284E
features a voltage logic pin that allows compatibility with
low-voltage logic levels, as in digital FPGAs/ASICs. On
the MAX3284E, the voltage threshold for a logic high
is user-defined by setting VL in the range from 1.65V to
VCC. The MAX3284E is also offered in a 6-pin SOT23
package.

MAX3283E/MAX3284E
±15kV ESD-Protected 52Mbps, 3V to 5.5V,
SOT23 RS-485/RS-422 True Fail-Safe Receivers
Detailed Description
The MAX3280E/MAX3281E/MAX3283E/MAX3284E are
single, true fail-safe receivers designed to operate at data
rates up to 52Mbps. The fail-safe architecture guarantees
a high output signal if both input terminals are open or
shorted together. See the True Fail-Safe section. This
feature assures a stable and predictable output logic state
with any transmitter driving the line. These receivers func-
tion with a 3.3V or 5V supply voltage and feature excellent
propagation delay times (15ns).
The MAX3280E is a single receiver available in a 5-pin
SOT23 package. The MAX3281E (EN, active high) and
MAX3283E (EN, active low) are single receivers that
also contain an enable pin. Both the MAX3281E and
MAX3283E are available in a 6-pin SOT23 package. The
MAX3284E is a single receiver that contains a VL pin,
which allows communication with low-level logic included
in digital FPGAs. The MAX3284E is available in a 6-pin
SOT23 package.
The MAX3284E’s low-level logic application allows users
to set the logic levels. A logic high level of 1.65V will limit
the maximum data rate to 20Mbps.
±15kV ESD Protection
ESD-protection structures are incorporated on the
receiver input pins to protect against ESD encountered
during handling and assembly. The MAX3280E/
MAX3281E/MAX3283E/MAX3284E receiver inputs (A,
B) have extra protection against static electricity found
in normal operation. Maxim’s engineers developed
state-of-the-art structures to protect these pins against
±15kV ESD without damage. After an ESD event, this
family of parts continues working without latchup.
ESD protection can be tested in several ways. The
receiver inputs are characterized for protection to the
following:
●±15kV using the Human Body Model
●±6kV using the Contact Discharge method specified
in IEC 1000-4-2 (formerly IEC 801-2)
●±12kV using the Air-Gap Discharge method specified
in IEC 1000-4-2 (formerly IEC 801-2)
ESD Test Conditions
ESD performance depends on a number of conditions.
Contact Maxim for a reliability report that documents test
setup, methodology, and results.
Human Body Model
Figure 3a shows the Human Body Model, and Figure
3b shows the current waveform it generates when dis-
charged into a low impedance. This model consists of a
100pF capacitor charged to the ESD voltage of interest,
which is then discharged into the device through a 1.5kW
resistor.
IEC 1000-4-2
Since January 1996, all equipment manufactured
and/or sold in the European community has been
required to meet the stringent IEC 1000-4-2 specifica-
tion. The IEC 1000-4-2 standard covers ESD test-
ing and performance of finished equipment; it does
not specifically refer to integrated circuits. The

users design equipment that meets Level 3 of IEC 1000-
4-2, without additional ESD-protection components.
The main difference between tests done using the Human
Body Model and IEC 1000-4-2 is higher peak current
in IEC 1000-4-2. Because series resistance is lower in
the IEC 1000-4-2 ESD test model (Figure 4a), the ESD-
withstand voltage measured to this standard is generally
lower than that measured using the Human Body Model.
Figure 4b shows the current waveform for the ±8kV IEC
1000-4-2 Level 4 ESD Contact Discharge test. The Air-
Gap test involves approaching the device with a charger
probe. The Contact Discharge method connects the
probe to the device before the probe is energized.
Machine Model
The Machine Model for ESD testing uses a 200pF stor-
age capacitor and zero-discharge resistance. It mimics
the stress caused by handling during manufacturing and
assembly. All pins (not just the RS-485 inputs) require this
protection during manufacturing. Therefore, the Machine
Model is less relevant to the I/O ports than are the Human
Body Model and IEC 1000-4-2.
True Fail-Safe
The MAX3280E/MAX3281E/MAX3283E/MAX3284E guar-
antee a logic-high receiver output when the receiver inputs
are shorted or open, or when they are connected to a
terminated transmission line with all drivers disabled. This
guaranteed logic high is achieved by setting the receiver
threshold between -50mV and -200mV. If the differential
receiver input voltage (VA - VB) is greater than or equal to
-50mV, RO is logic high. If (VA - VB) is less than or equal
to -200mV, RO is logic low.
In the case of a terminated bus with all transmitters dis-
abled, the receiver’s differential input voltage is pulled to
ground by the termination. This results in a logic high with
a 50mV minimum noise margin. Unlike previous fail-safe
devices, the -50mV to -200mV threshold complies with
the ±200mV EIA/TIA-485 standard.
Receiver Enable
(MAX3281E and MAX3283E only)
The MAX3281E and MAX3283E feature a receiver out-
put enable (EN, MAX3281E or EN, MAX3283E) input
that controls the receiver. The MAX3281E receiver
enable (EN) pin is active high, meaning the receiver
outputs are active when EN is high. The MAX3283E
receiver enable (EN) pin is active low. Receiver outputs
are high impedance when the MAX3281E’s EN pin is low
and when the MAX3283E’s EN pin is high.
Low-Voltage Logic Levels
(MAX3284E only)
An increasing number of applications now operate at
low-voltage logic levels. To enable compatibility with
these low-voltage logic level applications, such as digital
FPGAs, the MAX3284E VL pin is a user-defined supply
voltage that designates the voltage threshold for a logic
high.
At lower VL voltages, the data rate will also be lower.
A logic-high level of 1.65V will receive data at 20Mbps.
Table 2 gives data rates at various voltages at VL.
Applications Information
Propagation Delay Matching
The MAX3280E/MAX3281E/MAX3283E/MAX3284E (VCC
= VL) exhibit propagation delays that are closely matched
from one device to another, even between devices from
different production lots. This feature allows multiple data
lines to receive data and clock signals with minimal skew
with respect to each other. Figure 5 shows the typical
propagation delays. Small receiver skew times, the differ-
ence between the low-to-high and high-to-low propagation
delay, help maintain a symmetrical ratio (50% duty cycle).
The receiver skew time | tPLH - tPHL | is under 2ns for
either a 3.3V supply or a 5V supply.
Multidrop Clock Distribution
Low package-to-package skew (8ns max) makes the
MAX3280E/MAX3281E/MAX3283E/MAX3284E
(VCC = VL) ideal for multidrop clock distribution. When
distributing a clock signal to multiple circuits over long
transmission lines, receivers in separate locations, and
possibly at two different temperatures, would ideally

provide the same clock to their respective circuits.
Thus, minimal package-to-package skew is critical. The
skew must be kept well below the period of the clock
signal to ensure that all of the circuits on the network
are synchronized.
128 Receivers on the Bus
The standard RS-485 input impedance is 12kW (one-
unit load). The standard RS-485 transmitter can drive
32 unit loads. The MAX3280E/MAX3281E/MAX3283E/
MAX3284E present a 1/4-unit-load input impedance
(48kW), which allows up to 128 receivers on the bus.
Any combination of these RS-485 receivers with a total
of 32 unit loads can be connected to the same bus.
Thermal Protection
The MAX3280E/MAX3281E/MAX3283E/MAX3284E fea-
ture thermal protection. Thermal protection sets the out-
put stage in high-impedance mode when a short circuit
occurs at the output, limiting both the power dissipation
and temperature. The thermal temperature threshold is
+165°C, with a hysteresis of 20°C.
