Related data interface standards are:

  1. EIA-232-E Interface between data terminal equipment and data circuit-terminating equipment employing serial binary data interchange (ANSI/IEA-232-D)
  2. EIA-422-A Electrical characteristics of balanced voltage digital interface circuits
  3. EIA-423-A Electrical characteristics of unbalanced voltage digital interface circuits
  4. EIA-485 Standard for electrical characteristics of generators and receivers for use in balanced digital multipoint systems
  5. EIA-449 General purpose 37-position and 9-position interface for data terminal equipment and data circuit-terminating equipment.
  6. EIA-530 High speed 25-position interface for data terminal equipment and data circuit-terminating equipment
  7. EIA/TIA-562 Electrical characteristics for an unbalanced digital interface

Manufacturers of integrated circuit data transceivers often offer practical application information for RS-422 and RS-485 systems.

National Semiconductor's Interface Data Book includes a number of excellent applications notes. These notes are also available online at http://www.national.com/. A search engine is provided to search the text of the available application notes. Entering "422" or "485" as search criteria to get a current list of related application notes.

Jan Axelson's book, Serial Port Complete, is an excellent source of both general serial port information as well as RS-485 information.
