DS3696A - Multipoint RS485/RS422 Transceivers

Download the DS3696A datasheet PDF. This datasheet also covers the DS3695A variant, as both devices belong to the same multipoint rs485/rs422 transceivers family and are provided as variant models within a single manufacturer datasheet.

General Description

The DS3695A and DS3696A are high speed differential TRI-STATE® bus/line transceivers designed to meet the requirements of EIA standard RS485 with extended common mode range (+12V to

7V), for multipoint data transmission.

In addition they are compatible with requirements of RS-422.

DS3695A/DS3695AT/DS3696A Multipoint RS485/RS422 Transceivers February 1996 DS3695A/DS3695AT/DS3696A Multipoint RS485/RS422 Transceivers General Description The DS3695A and DS3696A are high speed differential TRI-STATE® bus/line transceivers designed to meet the requirements of EIA standard RS485 with extended common mode range (+12V to −7V), for multipoint data transmission. In addition they are compatible with requirements of RS-422. The driver and receiver outputs feature TRI-STATE capability. The driver outputs remain in TRI-STATE over the entire common mode range of +12V to −7V. Bus faults that cause excessive power dissipation within the device trigger a thermal shutdown circuit, which forces the driver outputs into the high impedance state.
