Receiver Failsafe

The differential receivers of the SN65HVD3x-EP family are failsafe to invalid bus states caused by:

  • Open bus conditions such as a disconnected connector
  • Shorted bus conditions such as cable damage shorting the twisted-pair together
  • Idle bus conditions that occur when no driver on the bus is actively driving

In any of these cases, the differential receiver outputs a failsafe logic high state, so the output of the receiver is not indeterminate.

Receiver failsafe is accomplished by offsetting the receiver thresholds such that the input indeterminate range does not include zero volts differential. In order to comply with the RS-422 and RS-485 standards, the receiver output must output a high when the differential input VID is more positive than 200mV, and must output a low when VID is more negative than –200mV. The receiver parameters which determine the failsafe performance are VIT+, VIT–, and VHYS (the separation between VIT+ and VIT–. As shown in the Section 6.7 table, differential signals more negative than –200mV always cause a low receiver output, and differential signals more positive than 200mV always cause a high receiver output.

When the differential input signal is close to zero, it is still above the VIT+ threshold, and the receiver output is high. Only when the differential input is more than VHYS below VIT+ does the receiver output transition to a low state. Therefore, the noise immunity of the receiver inputs during a bus fault conditions includes the receiver hysteresis value (VHYS) as well as the value of VIT+.
