GENERAL DESCRIPTION 
The ADN4690E/ADN4692E/ADN4694E/ADN4695E are 
multipoint, low voltage differential signaling (M-LVDS) 
transceivers (driver and receiver pairs) that can operate at up 
to 100 Mbps (50 MHz). Slew rate control is implemented on the 
driver outputs. The receivers detect the bus state with a differential 
input of as little as 50 mV over a common-mode voltage range of 
−1 V to +3.4 V. ESD protection of up to ±15 kV is implemented 
on the bus pins. The parts adhere to the TIA/EIA-899 standard for 
M-LVDS and complement TIA/EIA-644 LVDS devices with 
additional multipoint capabilities. 
The ADN4690E/ADN4692E are Type 1 receivers with 25 mV of 
hysteresis, so that slow-changing signals or loss of input does 
not lead to output oscillations. The ADN4694E/ADN4695E are 
Type 2 receivers exhibiting an offset threshold, guaranteeing the 
output state when the bus is idle (bus-idle fail-safe) or the 
inputs are open (open-circuit fail-safe). 
The parts are available as half-duplex in an 8-lead SOIC package 
(the ADN4690E/ADN4694E) or as full-duplex in a 14-lead 
SOIC package (the ADN4692E/ADN4695E). A selection table 
for the ADN469xE parts is shown in Table 1.
