1µA Supply-Current, True +3V to +5.5V
RS-232 Transceivers with AutoShutdown
The MAX3221/MAX3223/MAX3243 require only 0.1µF
capacitors in 3.3V operation, and can operate from input
voltages ranging from +3.0V to +5.5V. They are ideal for
3.3V-only systems, mixed 3.3V and 5.0V systems, or
5.0V-only systems that require true RS-232 performance.
The MAX3221 is a 1-driver/1-receiver 16-pin SSOP version of the 20-pin MAX3223 (2-driver/2-receiver). The
MAX3243 3-driver/5-receiver, complete serial port is
ideal for notebook or subnotebook computers. The
MAX3243 includes one complementary always-active
receiver. This receiver can monitor an external device
(such as a modem) in shutdown, without forward biasing the protection diodes in a UART that may have VCC
completely removed.

MAX3221/MAX3223/MAX3243*
_______________General Description
The MAX3221/MAX3223/MAX3243 achieve 1µA supply
current with Maxim’s revolutionary AutoShutdown™ feature. When the MAX3221/MAX3223/MAX3243 do not
sense a valid signal level on their receiver inputs, the
on-board power supply and drivers shut down. This
occurs if the RS-232 cable is disconnected or if the
transmitters of the connected peripheral are turned off.
The system turns on again when a valid level is applied
to any RS-232 receiver input. As a result, the system
saves power without changes to the existing BIOS or
operating system.
The MAX3221/MAX3223/MAX3243 transceivers are 3Vpowered EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 communications
interfaces intended for notebook computer applications. A proprietary, high-efficiency, dual charge-pump
power supply and a low-dropout transmitter combine to
deliver true RS-232 performance from a single +3.0V to
+5.5V supply. A guaranteed data rate of 120kbps provides compatibility with popular software for communicating with personal computers.

_______________Detailed Description
Dual Charge-Pump Voltage Converter
The MAX3221/MAX3223/MAX3243’s internal power
supply consists of a regulated dual charge pump that
provides output voltages of +5.5V (doubling charge
pump) and -5.5V (inverting charge pump), regardless
of the input voltage (V CC) over the +3.0V to +5.5V
range. The charge pumps operate in a discontinuous
mode: if the output voltages are less than 5.5V, the
charge pumps are enabled; if the output voltages
exceed 5.5V, the charge pumps are disabled. Each
charge pump requires a flying capacitor (C1, C2) and
a reservoir capacitor (C3, C4) to generate the V+ and
V- supplies.
RS-232 Transmitters
The transmitters are inverting level translators that convert CMOS-logic levels to 5.0V EIA/TIA-232 levels. They
guarantee a 120kbps data rate with worst-case loads of
3kΩ in parallel with 1000pF, providing compatibility with
PC-to-PC communication software (such as Laplink™).
Typically, the MAX3221/MAX3223/MAX3243 can operate at data rates of 235kbps. Transmitters can be paralleled to drive multiple receivers or mice (MAX3243).
Figure 1 shows a complete system connection.
When FORCEOFF is driven to ground, or the AutoShutdown circuitry senses invalid voltage levels at all
receiver inputs, the transmitters are disabled and the
outputs are forced into a high-impedance state.
LapLink is a trademark of Traveling Software.

RS-232 Receivers
The MAX3221/MAX3223/MAX3243’s receivers convert
RS-232 signals to CMOS-logic output levels. All
receivers have one inverting three-state output. In shutdown (FORCEOFF = low) or in AutoShutdown, the
MAX3221/MAX3223’s receivers are active (Table 1).
Driving EN high places the receiver(s) in a high-impedance state. The MAX3243’s receivers are high impedance when the part is shut down.
The MAX3243 has an always-active complementary
output (R2OUTB). R2OUTB is an extra output that monitors receiver activity while the other receivers are high
impedance. This allows Ring Indicator to be monitored
without forward biasing other devices connected to the
receiver outputs. This is ideal for systems where VCC is
set to 0V in shutdown to accommodate peripherals,
such as UARTs (Figure 2).

AutoShutdown
A 1µA supply current is achieved with Maxim’s new
AutoShutdown feature, which operates when
FORCEON is low and FORCEOFF is high. When the
MAX3221/MAX3223/MAX3243 sense no valid signal
levels on all receiver inputs for 30µs, the on-board
power supply and drivers are shut off, reducing supply
current to 1µA. This occurs if the RS-232 cable is disconnected or the connected peripheral transmitters are
turned off. The system turns on again when a valid level
is applied to any RS-232 receiver input. As a result, the
system saves power without changes to the existing
BIOS or operating system. When using AutoShutdown,
the INVALID output is high when the device is on and
low when the device is shut down. Because INVALID
indicates the receiver inputs’ condition, it can be used
in any mode (Figure 3).
Table 2 and Figure 3c summarize the MAX3221/
MAX3223/MAX3243 operating modes. FORCEON and
FORCEOFF override the automatic circuitry and force
the transceiver into its normal operating state or into its
low-power standby state. When neither control is asserted, the IC selects between these states automatically
based on receiver input levels. Figures 3a, 3b, and 5a
depict valid and invalid RS-232 receiver levels.
A mouse or other system with AutoShutdown may need
time to wake up. Figure 4 shows a circuit that forces the
transmitters on for 100ms, allowing enough time for the

other system to realize that the MAX3221/MAX3223/
MAX3243 is awake. If the other system outputs valid
RS-232 signals within that time, the RS-232 ports on
both systems remain enabled.
When shut down, the device’s charge pumps are turned
off, V+ decays to VCC, V- decays to ground, and the
transmitter outputs are disabled (high impedance). The
time required to exit shutdown is typically 100µs (Figure
5b).

___________Applications Information
Capacitor Selection
The capacitor type used for C1–C4 is not critical for
proper operation; either polarized or nonpolarized
capacitors may be used. The charge pump requires
0.1µF capacitors for 3.3V operation. For other supply
voltages, refer to Table 3 for required capacitor values.
Do not use values smaller than those listed in Table 3.
Increasing the capacitor values (e.g., by a factor of 2)
reduces ripple on the transmitter outputs and slightly
reduces power consumption. C2, C3, and C4 can be
increased without changing C1’s value. However, do
not increase C1 without also increasing the values
of C2, C3, and C4 to maintain the proper ratios (C1
to the other capacitors).
When using the minimum required capacitor values,
make sure the capacitor value does not degrade
excessively with temperature. If in doubt, use capacitors with a larger nominal value. The capacitor’s equivalent series resistance (ESR) usually rises at
low temperatures and influences the amount of ripple
on V+ and V-.

Power-Supply Decoupling
In most circumstances a 0.1µF bypass capacitor is
adequate. In applications that are sensitive to powersupply noise, decouple VCC to ground with a capacitor
of the same value as the charge-pump capacitor C1.
Connect bypass capacitors as close to the IC as possible.
Transmitter Outputs
when Exiting Shutdown
Figure 6 shows two transmitter outputs when exiting
shutdown mode. As they become active, the two transmitter outputs are shown going to opposite RS-232
levels. Each transmitter is loaded with 3kΩ in parallel
with 2500pF. The transmitter outputs display no ringing
or undesirable transients as they come out of shutdown. Note that the transmitters are enabled only when
the magnitude of V- exceeds approximately 3V. Figure
7a shows the MAX3243’s transmitter output voltage
vs. current per transmitter. Figure 7b is a mouse driver
test circuit.

Microsoft. The MAX3243 successfully drove all serial
mice and met their respective current and voltage
requirements. Figure 7a shows the transmitter outputs
under increasing load current. The MAX3243’s switching
regulator ensures the transmitters will supply at least ±5V
during worst-case conditions. The AutoShutdown feature
does not work with a mouse, so FORCEOFF and
FORCEON should be connected to VCC.
High Data Rates
The MAX3221/MAX3223/MAX3243 maintain the RS-232
±5.0V minimum transmitter output voltage even at high
data rates. Figure 8 shows a transmitter loopback test
circuit. Figure 9 shows a loopback test result at
120kbps, and Figure 10 shows the same test at
235kbps. For Figure 9, all three transmitters were driven simultaneously at 120kbps into RS-232 loads in parallel with 1000pF. For Figure 10, a single transmitter
was driven at 235kbps, but all three transmitters were
loaded with an RS-232 receiver in parallel with 1000pF.
Mouse Driveability (MAX3243)
Interconnection with 3V and 5V Logic
The MAX3243 has been specifically designed to power
serial mice while operating from low-voltage power supplies. It has been tested with samples of ten major mouse
models from six manufacturers including the leading
three: Logitech (5 models), Mouse Systems, and
The MAX3221/MAX3223/MAX3243 can directly interface with various 5V logic families, including ACT and
HCT CMOS. See Table 4 for more information on possible combinations of interconnections.
