LTC1482 - Low Power RS485 Transceiver with Carrier Detect and Receiver Fail-Safe

The LTC®1482 is a low power RS485 compatible transceiver that offers an active low carrier detect output. The open-drain carrier detect pin allows several transceivers to share the same carrier detect line and can be used to detect the insertion or removal of a driven RS485/RS422 cable. Enhanced ESD protection allows the LTC1482 to withstand ±15kV (human body model), IEC-1000-4-2 level 4 (±8kV) contact and level 3 (±8kV) air discharge ESD without latchup or damage. The LTC1482 receiver stays alive at all times except in shutdown. The supply current is a maximum of 700µA and 900µA when the driver is disabled and enabled respectively. In shutdown, the quiescent current of the LTC1482 drops to a maximum of 20µA. When the driver is disabled or the LTC1482 is in shutdown, the driver outputs are three-stated and remain in a high impedance state over the RS485 common mode range. Excessive power dissipation caused by bus contention or faults is prevented by a thermal shutdown circuit, which forces the driver outputs into a high impedance state. The LTC1482 is fully specified over the commercial and industrial temperature ranges and is available in 8-lead MSOP, PDIP and SO packages.
