LTC486CN Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The LTC486CN from Linear Technology is a quad, low-power differential bus/line driver designed for RS485 and RS422 applications. It features a wide common-mode range of -7V to 12V and operates from a single 5V supply.

 

Key electrical specifications include a typical quiescent current of 110µA, a maximum data rate of 10 Mbps, and typical driver propagation delays of 28ns with 5ns skew. The device offers thermal shutdown protection and power-up/down glitch-free driver outputs, allowing for live insertion or removal of packages. The driver maintains high impedance in three-state or when powered off.

 

This transceiver is suitable for multipoint data transmission standards like TIA/EIA-485 and -422. It is pin-compatible with several other industry-standard transceivers, including SN75172 and DS96172. The LTC486CN is housed in an N-16 package and operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.

 

Its CMOS design provides significant power savings compared to bipolar counterparts while maintaining ruggedness against overload and ESD damage. The device is RoHS 3 compliant.
