cation on multipoint bus transmission lines. It is designed for
balanced transmission lines. It meets ANSI Standards TIA/
and V.11 and X.27. The driver outputs and receiver inputs
15kV ESD protection. The LMS1487E combines a
鈩?/div>
differential line driver and differential input re-
ceiver, both of which operate from a single 5.0V power
supply. The driver and receiver have an active high and
active low, respectively, that can be externally connected to
function as a direction control. The driver outputs and re-
ceiver inputs are internally connected to form a differential
input/output (I/O) bus port that is designed to offer minimum
loading to bus whenever the driver is disabled or when V
CC
= 0V. These ports feature wide positive and negative com-
mon mode voltage ranges, making the device suitable for
multipoint applications in noisy environments. The
LMS1487E is available in 8-Pin SOIC and 8-pin DIP pack-
ages. It is a drop-in replacement to Maxim鈥檚 MAX1487E.

Typical Application
20085601
A typical multipoint application is shown in the above figure. Terminating resistor, RT are typically required but only located at the two ends of the cable.
Pull-up and pull-down resistors maybe required at the end of the bus to provide fail-safe biasing. The biasing resistors provide a bias to the cable when all
drivers are in TRI-STATE, See National Application Note, AN-847 for further information.
