Figure 2.4 Transceiver with Bias Resistors

Example 1. 10 node, RS-485 network with two 120 ΩΩ termination

resistors

Each RS-485 node has a load impedance of 12KΩ. 10 nodes in parallel

give a load of 1200 Ω. Additionally, the two 120 Ω termination resistors

result in another 60 Ω load, for a total load of 57 Ω. Clearly the termination

resistors are responsible for a majority of the loading. In order to maintain at

least 200mV between the B and A line, we need a bias current of 3.5 mA to

flow through the load. To create this bias from a 5V supply a total series

resistance of 1428 Ω or less is required. Subtract the 57 Ω that is already part

of the load, and we are left with 1371 Ω. Placing half of this value as a pullup

to 5V and half as a pulldown to ground gives a maximum bias resistor value of

685Ω for each of the two biasing resistors.
