DUAL CHARGE PUMP Detailed Description The ICL232 is a dual RS-232 transmitter/receiver powered by a single +5V power supply which meets all ElA RS232C specifications and features low power consumption. The functional diagram illustrates the major elements of the ICL232. The circuit is divided into three sections: a voltage doubler/inverter, dual transmitters, and dual receivers Voltage Converter.

FIGURE 6. SLEW RATE DEFINITION The voltage quadrupler contains two charge pumps which use two phases of an internally generated clock to generate +10V and -10V. The nominal clock frequency is 16kHz. During phase one of the clock, capacitor C1 is charged to VCC . During phase two, the voltage on C1 is added to VCC , producing a signal across C2 equal to twice VCC . At the same time, C3 is also charged to 2VCC , and then during phase one, it is inverted with respect to ground to produce a signal across C4 equal to -2VCC . The voltage converter accepts input voltages up to 5.5V. The output impedance of the doubler (V+) is approximately 200Ω, and the output impedance of the inverter (V-) is approximately 450Ω. Typical graphs are presented which show the voltage converters output vs input voltage and output voltages vs load characteristics. The test circuit (Figure 3) uses 1µF capacitors for C1-C4, however, the value is not critical. Increasing the values of C1 and C2 will lower the output impedance of the voltage doubler and inverter, and increasing the values of the reservoir capacitors, C3 and C4, lowers the ripple on the V+ and V- supplies. Transmitters The transmitters are TTL/CMOS compatible inverters which translate the inputs to RS-232 outputs. The input logic threshold is about 26% of VCC , or 1.3V for VCC = 5V. A logic 1 at the input results in a voltage of between -5V and V- at the output, and a logic 0 results in a voltage between +5V and (V+ - 0.6V). Each transmitter input has an internal 400kΩ pullup resistor so any unused input can be left unconnected and its output remains in its low state. The output voltage swing meets the RS-232C specification of ±5V minimum with the worst case conditions of: both transmitters driving 3kΩ minimum load impedance, VCC = 4.5V, and maximum allowable operating temperature. The transmitters have an internally limited output slew rate which is less than 30V/µs. The outputs are short circuit protected and can be shorted to ground indefinitely. The powered down output impedance is a minimum of 4 ICL232 300Ω with ±2V applied to the outputs and VCC = 0V. connected to V+. +5V - C3 + 1µF 5kΩ 2 V+ VCC 400kΩ TXIN C1 + 1µF - TOUT GND < TXIN < VCC 5kΩ 3 ICL232 4 V- < VTOUT < V+ C2 + 1µF - V- FIGURE 7.

The benefit of sharing common reservoir capacitors is the elimination of two capacitors and the reduction of the charge pump source impedance which effectively increases the output swing of the transmitters.

The receivers have a typical input threshold of 1.3V which is within the ±3V limits, known as the transition region, of the RS-232 specification. The receiver output is 0V to VCC . The output will be low whenever the input is greater than 2.4V and high whenever the input is floating or driven between +0.8V and -30V. The receivers feature 0.5V hysteresis to improve noise rejection. T1OUT, T2 OUT OR R1OUT, R2 OUT 16 1 300Ω tPLH tPHL + tPLH 2 FIGURE 9. PROPAGATION DELAY DEFINITION Applications The ICL232 may be used for all RS-232 data terminal and communication links.

The applications presented represent typical interface configurations. A simple duplex RS-232 port with CTS/RTS handshaking is illustrated in Figure 10.
