10 RS-485/422<br />

➔<br />

Design Considerations<br />

Robustness — RS-485 is a robust<br />

interface standard for use in industrial<br />

environments. It features a wide<br />

common mode range of –7 V to 12 V.<br />

Parts from TI are available with ESD<br />

protection up to 16 kV.<br />

Reliability — Integrated fail-safe circuitry<br />

protects the bus from interpreting noise<br />

as valid data when short-circuit, opencircuit<br />

or idle line fault conditions occur.<br />

Speed and Distance — Low noise<br />

coupling of differential signaling with<br />

twisted-pair cabling and wide commonmode<br />

voltage range allows data<br />

exchange at signaling rates of up to<br />

50 Mbps or to distances of several<br />

kilometers at lower rates.<br />

RS-485/422 Family of Products<br />

Line Loading — RS-422 is capable of<br />

supporting one driver and up to 10<br />

receivers on the bus line. Standard<br />

RS-485 is capable of supporting up to 32<br />

unit loads or nodes on the bus line.<br />

However, there are reduced unit load<br />

devices available that can support up to<br />

256 devices.<br />

Termination — A multipoint bus architecture<br />

requires termination at both ends of<br />

the bus line. The termination resistors<br />

must be within 20 percent of the characteristic<br />

impedance of the cable and can<br />

vary from 90 Ω to 120 Ω.<br />

Resources<br />

Technical Information<br />

• The main difference between RS-422<br />

and RS-485 is the multidrop and<br />

multipoint bus architecture—that is,<br />

one driver to many receivers and<br />

many drivers to many receivers,<br />

respectively.<br />

• Typical signaling rates and distances<br />

for these standards are up to<br />

10 Mbps or up to 1.2 km. TI offers<br />

devices capable of reaching signaling<br />

rates of up to 50 Mbps.<br />
