MAX3222E/3232E High ESD-Protected, Low Power, 3.0V to 5.5V, Single Supply RS-232 Transceivers General Description The MAX3222E/M AX3232E are 2 driver, 2 receiver RS-232 transceiver solutions intended for portable or hand-held applications, features low power consumption, high data-rate capabilities, and enhanced ESD protection. The ESD tolerance of the MAX3222E/3232E devices is over ±15kV for both human body model and IEC1000-4-2 air discharge test methods. A low-dropout transmitter output stage delivers true RS-232 performance from a +3.0V to +5.5V power supply, using an internal dual charge pump. The charge pump requires only four small 0.1µF capacitors for operation from a +3.3V supply. Each device guarantees operation at data rates of 250kbps while maintaining RS-232 output levels. The MAX3222E features a 1µA shutdown mode that reduces power consumption in battery-powered portable systems. The M AX3222E receivers remain active in shutdown mode, allowing monitoring of external devices while consuming only 1µA of supply current. The M AX3222E and MAX3232E are pin, package, and functionally compatible with the industry-standard M AX242 and MAX232, respectively.

Detailed Description Dual Charge-Pump Voltage Converter The MAX3222E/MAX3232Es’ 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) over the +3.0V to +5.5V VCC range. The charge pump operates in discontinuous mode; if the output voltages are less than 5.5V, the charge pump is enabled, and if the output voltages exceed 5.5V, the charge pump is disabled. Each charge pump requires a flying capacitor (C1, C2) and a storage capacitor (C3, C4) to generate the V+ and V- supplies. RS-232 Transmitters The transmitters are inverting level translators that convert TTL/CMOS-logic levels to ±5V EIA/TIA-232 compliant levels. The MAX3222E/MAX3232E transmitters guarantee a 250kbps data rate with worst-case loads of 3KΩ parallel with 1000pF. Transmitters can be paralleled to drive multiple receivers. The MAX3222E transmitters are disabled and the outputs are forced into a high-impedance state when the device is in shutdown mode ( SHDN = GND). The MAX3222E/MAX3232E permits the outputs to be driven up to ±12V in shutdown. RS-232 Receivers The receivers convert RS-232 signals to CMOS-logic output levels. The MAX3222E receivers have inverting three-state outputs. Drive EN high to place the receiver(s) into a high impedance state. Receivers can be either active or inactive in shutdown. MAX3222E Supply current falls to less than 1µA in shutdown mode ( SHDN = GND). When shutdown, the device’s charge pumps are shut off, V+ is pulled down to VCC, V- is pulled to ground, and the transmitter outputs are disabled (high impedance). The time required to recover from shutdown is typically 100µs. Connect SHDN to VCC if shutdown mode is not used. ±15kV ESD Protection ESD-protection structures are incorporated to protect against electrostatic discharges encountered during handling and assembly. The driver outputs and receiver inputs of the MAX3222E/MAX3232E have extra protection against static electricity. The ESD structures withstand high ESD in all states: normal operation, shutdown, and powered down. After an ESD event, Circuits keep working without latch up. ESD protection can be tested in various ways; the transmitter outputs and receiver inputs for the MAX3222E/MAX3232E are characterized for protection to the following limits: • ±15kV using the Human Body Model • ±8kV using the Contact Discharge method specified in IEC 1000-4-2 • ±15kV using the Air-Gap Discharge method specified in IEC 1000-4-2 MAX3222/3232 Datasheet Rev. 0.1 , Sept. 2005 Page 6 of 7 Anasys Semiconductor, Inc. Application Information Capacitor Selection The capacitor type used for C1–C4 is not critical for proper operation; polarized or non-polarized capacitors can be used. The charge pump requires 0.1µF capacitors for 3.3V operation. 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. 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), which usually rises at low temperatures, influences the amount of ripple on V+ and V- output voltages. Power-Supply Decoupling In most circumstances, a 0.1µF VCC bypass capacitor is adequate. In applications sensitive to power-supply noise, use a capacitor of the same value as charge pump capacitor C1. Connect bypass capacitors as close to the IC as possible. Operation Down to 2.7V Transmitter outputs meet EIA/TIA-562 levels of ±3.7V with supply voltages as low as 2.7V. Transmitter Outputs Recovering from Shutdown When MAX3222E’s two transmitter outputs were recovering from shutdown mode, the two transmitter outputs are shown going to opposite RS-232 levels (one transmitter input is high; the other is low) as they become active. Each transmitter is loaded with 3K resistor 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 -3.0V. Interconnection with 3V and 5V Logic The MAX3222E/MAX3232E can directly interface with various 3V and 5V logic families, including ACT and HCT CMOS.
