3.9 High-Speed RS-422/Mil-Std 188-114C Interfaces
There are three High-Speed RS-422 interface models (-TW, -T22 and -D22) and three High-Speed
Mil-Std 188-114C interface models (-TW8, -T88 and -D88) available.
All can operate up to 20 Mbps. All support only clock and data signals as shown in Table 3-K. Both
the RS-422A and Mil-Std 188-114C are balanced differential electrical signals.
The RS-422A operates between +1 and +4 volts whereas the Mil-Std 188-114C swings between
±3 volts. The termination impedances vary slightly as illustrated in Table 3-L. The two interface
types will communicate with each other but center tap ground jumpers E2 and E3 must be re-
moved from a Mil-Std 188-114C interface (refer to Table 3-M).
The basic differences between the models is the type of physical connectors used for the inter-
face. Table 3-L lists the six interface models with the corresponding source and termination im-
pedances and physical connectors. Table 3-M shows the jumper options available and the factory
default settings for the jumpers.
