All other trademarks are the property of their respective owners. The LTC®2801/LTC2802/LTC2803/LTC2804 are single and dual RS-232 transceivers in narrow SSOP and chip-scale DFN packages. All operate over a supply range of 1.8V to 5.5V, which permits operation directly from two alkaline, NiCd or NiMH cells. An integrated DC-to-DC converter generates power supplies for driving RS-232 levels. A logic supply pin allows easy interfacing with different logic levels independent of the DC-DC supply. These parts are compatible with the TIA/EIA-232-F standard. Driver outputs are protected from overload and can be shorted to ground or up to ±15V without damage. To extend battery life, receivers can be kept active, operating at reduced speed, with only 15µA current. In shutdown mode, current is further reduced to 1µA.

The transceivers interface with logic operating on any supply from 1.8V to 5.5V, independent of the VCC voltage. Depending on the device, one or two control pins are available to invoke Shutdown, Receiver Active and Driver Disable features. The on-chip DC-DC converter operates from the VCC input, generating a 7V VDD supply and a charge pumped – 6.3V VEE supply, as shown in Figure 6. VDD and VEE power the output stage of the drivers and are regulated to levels that guarantee greater than ±5V output swing. The DC-DC converter requires a 10µH inductor (L1) and a bypass capacitor (C4) of at least 1µF. The recommended size for the charge pump capacitor (C1) is 220nF and for the storage capacitors (C2 and C3) is 1µF. Larger storage capacitors up to 4.7µF may be used if C1 is kept at 20% to 50% their size and C4 is also scaled. Locate C1-C4 close to their associated pins. L1 10µH VCC C1 220nF SW C2 1µF VL C5* 220nF VCC VL EXTERNAL DEVICE RS-232 2801 F07 BOOST REGULATOR *OMIT IF VL IS CONNECTED TO VCC Power-Saving Modes When the DC-DC converter and drivers are turned off (PS and MODE or ON/OFF = logic low), VCC supply current is reduced to 1µA. Tables 1 and 2 summarize the modes for each device. In Shutdown mode, VL supply current is reduced to 1µA, and both receiver and driver outputs assume a high impedance state. In Receivers Active mode, the quiescent VL supply current is reduced to 15µA and the driver outputs assume a high impedance state. The receivers operate at a reduced rate (typically 100 kbps) with hysteresis turned off. Half-Duplex Operation CAP VDD 1.8V TO 5.5V ANY VOLTAGE FROM 1.8V TO 5.5V Figure 7.

DC/DC Converter and Recommended Bypassing VL Logic Supply A separate logic supply pin VL allows the LTC2801 family to interface with any logic signal from 1.8V to 5.5V, as shown in Figure 7. Simply connect the desired logic supply to VL. There is no interdependency between VCC and VL; they may simultaneously operate at any voltage from 1.8V to 5.5V and sequence in any order. If VL is powered separately from VCC , bypass VL with a 220nF capacitor (C5). When the DC-DC converter is kept on (PS = logic high), MODE serves as a low-latency driver enable for half-duplex operation. Each driver is enabled and disabled in less than 2µs, while each receiver remains continuously active. This mode of operation is illustrated in Figures 15-17. Battery Operation To maximize battery life, connect VCC (and L1) directly to the unregulated battery voltage and VL to the regulated supply, as shown in Figure 22. This configuration typically minimizes conversion loss while providing compatibility with system logic levels. Inductor Selection A 10µH inductor with a saturation current (ISAT) rating of at least 200mA and low DCR (copper wire resistance) is recommended. Some small inductors meeting these requirements are listed in Table 3. 2801234fe 10 LTC2801/LTC2802/ LTC2803/LTC2804 Applications Information Table 3.

The peak inrush current must not exceed 2A. To avoid this condition, add a 1Ω resistor as shown in Figure 8. This precaution is not relevant for supply voltages below 4.5V or rise times longer than 10µs. Board Layout The board layout should minimize the length and area of the SW and CAP traces. Suggested compact layouts for the LTC2801 family are shown in Figure 9 (a) and (b). The small size of ceramic capacitors makes them ideal for the LTC2801 family. X5R and X7R (preferred) types are recommended because their ESR is low and they retain their capacitance over relatively wide voltage and temperature ranges. Use a voltage rating of at least 10V.
